Distance Challenge - Runners vs Cyclists

[Teenage Dirtbag]

Yeah I think I'll have to go with the cyclists on this one. But it will be interest to see where I accumulate more miles. That ride in Tahoe should help in that regard.

Oh...that's IT! You're DEAD!

Ok, just got word....Archaea is in! (as a cyclist that is). Said he'll report his mileage through me or Creek.

Another ringer! Sweet!

I got Paula Radcliffe on board. She'll just report her mileage through me.

[Pheidippides]

So are we starting today, then? I've got my miles for today to report.

Nice run BTW. I slogged through 3.6 miles yesterday at a 12:00 pace.

I woke up at 4 and couldn't go back to sleep, so I was out the door by 5:45. The dark just pre-sunrise morning is fantastic for running, and yesterday was a rest day (I didn't even play my usual basketball) so I felt great.

I couldn't even slog 3.6 at the beginning of the year, so you're ahead of me.

That's weak. He should report it here.

Good question. Is someone going to fire a starting pistol or what?

Mike's grip begins to slip just a little bit. Bwahh Hah! Hah Ha!

I'll go on whichever team will take me. Or which team makes it the most even.

So let me get this straight. If I am on the runners team. I can still cycle and count those miles? or can I only count running miles. I am a better runner than cyclist, but I count on doing a lot more cycling miles in teh near future, so I am unclear as to which direction to choose.

Oh and JL may be at hte same conference as me in San diego, so if I see him, I'll ask him.

Yes, I am at the same conference. I am swamped so I haven't been keeping up on all of these threads.

If it's not too late, I would like to join. You can put me on either team.

Slow, taper run for my half on Saturday. I use the term "taper" loosely, since I haven't run much at all since Ragnar, but this race looked too fun to pass up.

Anyway, 4.99 miles (grr...I'll go walk to the mailbox and back. Count it as 5.) done.

Paula did 15 at 6:15.

Counting niku, I have Runners 8.6 (13.6 with Paula), Cyclists 0.

You mean 11.2 for the runners, no? I did 6.2 this morning. Proof available upon request.

How are we going to report miles? I will order a garmin this weekend, but until then I just have my runningmap rtes and my stop watch.

I finished a 10-miler at 11pm last night. If I had just waited another hour I could have counted it.
