oh trust me...im well aware of how well the female persuasion does in this challenge! (andypants especially included!) im coming with both barrels (legs and liver) blazing this year!

Biggest question...is how does one taper towards the end of november for this epic event? is there a build phase to gear up for christmas? (:

Seriously considering it.... CIM this weekend would be a nice jump start. Curious, what was the winning total last year?

Well, my last day of work is 12/7 and I have the Charleston Marathon in January. So this looks like something I should get behind.

I try never to taper my drinking. It is sort of like ultra running - if you go far enough, slow enough, what is the point of a taper? What you want here is increased tolerance, which comes from steady slow increases in volume. Or something like that.

There were some major leagure drinking efforts in this challenge last year. I was in awe of the accomplishments. To my recollection, I had one big night (18 drinks), but otherwise I couldn't really compete with the big dogs (mostly from Canada - go figure).

I'll be back in for this year.

I'm in for the running part! Can I count my drinking from 25 years ago this month (4th year engineering post exams was enough for a lifetime....). Seriously though, I don't want to mess up the results on the drinking part of the challenge. I use the "other category" in the training log to cover my time doing weight training (yikes, I could get banished for even admitting that)....so I'll just sign up for the running part because otherwise I might mess up the drinking part of the challenge!

HEY! I resemble that remark! Completed the task in 2010, where I think I nearly doubled the drink mark. Last year I fell short on the running, but still exceeded expectations on the boozie side.


Calling out QuadsOfFury. Quads? Where you at, dude? Rattlesnake, you're going down. Again!

looks like i picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue....

can we get a huffing equivalent to booze?
are the illegals and their booze equivalents in the FM?
i've never been a drinker but this challenge might be just what I need to finally polish off those 4-year-old bottles of Havana Club that are gathering dust. maybe start drinking red wine (lowers the cholesterol ya know) too.

D'oh! not again ;)

I'm in.

Not going to be pushing the running miles like I did last year (and getting injured). I did nab that BQ I was shooting for in January tho'. So, next marathon isn't until Patriots day, over 4months away. December won't be a high mileage running month. And, at 134lbs, I'll never win a drinking competition.

Shooting for 200 total. Hopefully 70% of those points for running. it will be a challenge!

I'm in. Does a bottle of wine constitute as the regular 5 drinks or what I consider 4 glasses? ;-)

Im in, the run mileage will be a challenge, first year trying this, first year hearing about this challenge too. Ought to be fun! looks like the power drinkers have an edge tho, but hungover running will be quite interesting too!

Good luck everyone!

Well this sounds interesting...two things I like to do...I'm in!

Unfortunately this is going to be very telling when my miles don't eclipse 200 but my drinks do, but that is how December works for me. (Yeah...only in December...sure...)
