It's baaaaaack! It's time for the SIXTH Annual December 200mi Running + Drinking Challenge.
December is a time of too many office parties, family dinners, over drinking and over eating. Most of us don't really keep track of just how much we drink during this season. I know it's waaaay too easy to get a lot of (burp) empty calories and also side-track a lot of training. However, December is also a really awesome time of year to log a sh*tload of miles to help keep your waistline in check. So, here we go for challenge #6...
Any running counts. Water running - use your LSD pace to figure that distance out.
We also log a point a standard drink (1 12oz beer, 1 5oz wine, 1 1oz spirits).
Who's in? Last year I manged the 200miles just by the skin of my teeth. Since I went and signed up for that crazy Comrades race, I have no excuses to exceed last December's total.
----------------------
INSTRUCTIONS:
1) join the 200mi Dec running & drinking challenge
2) join the companion 200mi Dec running & drinking challenge - the Drinking part
3) Log your runs in the training log as usual
4) Log your drinks as "Other" - 1 minute of "Other" activity = 1 standard drink. It's total not frequency, so you can lump all your evening's drinks into ONE entry.
