2 more days! I've been getting my training in for the drinking portion; wish I could say the same for the running... but hey, that's why I'm doing this challenge!

Cool. I'm in for both running and drinking.
I had never even looked at the training log on ST until this challenge came along. Sweet.
A drinking note: I'm trying to go gluten free for December (to see if it does me any good). This means beer is off the menu. I have stocked up on wine, whiskey, gin, and brandy. So, I ought to still do okay.

Yeah I hear ya, which is why one of my goals is to drink LESS than I did last December... it was getting pretty shameful... AP
As a co-winner last year, I am here to wish you all the best of luck! However, choosing not to participate this year. Need to drop 40lbs by my April mary and I've been making last December look like nothing lately, so Mrs. Quads and I have banned alcohol from the house for awhile.
Have fun!!

OK, I'm in but I just started running again on Monday. However, even if I HALVE my drinking from last Dec, I still have a good chance of winning.

LOL yes you probably do. I've just picked up a flu bug or something, so my first few days are really going to suck balls. Boourns.

So doing the math (sorrry, it's what I do - see screen name), to get to 200 hours for this challenge I will only have to drink 12,000 beers this month. I'm thinking even back in college I might still have fallen short. On the other hand, that there is some good carbs....

Good day today. 2 hr ride. 2700 swim. Only ran 3.5, but I'm now enjoying my well earned Guinness. Cheers!

Been lurking for a couple of years, but finally speaking up to join the challenge! Now the problem is I can't seem to figure out how to log my run. Help! Logged into the training log, but it won't accept my input. Any advice before I get too busy with the drinking part?

I think you need a # number of posts before you can do things like PMs and use the log.... better start posting now, and then you can always log prior runs once you are able to.

Thanks. I am looking forward to the challenge. Guess I need to spend some time sharing opinions between runs.

I'm in! I don't drink, so I've got a lot of running ahead of me.

How come when I try to log my workout it only stays open for 10 seconds then automaticly closes out the workout log screen?

I've no idea. What browser are you running? I use Firefox and Chrome with no issues.

Had same problem logging the booze from home (IE).
Fired up firefox from work and entered it fine.

I'm sorry! The Cup is solely mine this year! I shall miss the competition, you were a truly worthy competitor.

Since the challenges are displayed separately, how exactly are they combined to determine the overall winner?
