I ran 15 miles this morning after the kids opened their presents. Does that count?

Um, yeah, had to pass on riding outdoors today, the entire SC coast was under a tornado warning all day, rained like a tropical storm, high winds. Love to train, but not worth dying for, nice and dry(except for sweat) on my trainer for an hour.

No record but I road 20 miles in a cold 40 degree rain this afternoon. I actually enjoyed this ride. Now I'm going to enjoy a beef tenderloin dinner and a glass of wine with my family.

Ran this morning about 10k and I am just about to leave the house for a 2 hr ride.

My wife is great she is getting the turkey ready and looking after the kids while I do these things.

last year i think kate major still did a 6 hour long ride.
I didnt ride christmas day as i think your chances of getting hit by a drunk driver are so much higher thats its prob worth skipping the day and taking a run instead

I rode 27 miles this afternoon. Temps in the mid 40's (F). I'm almost POSITIVE it will be my last ride of the year (I've said that 3 times in the last couple weeks though...)

I rode in the SC rain: a grand total of 0.4 miles to check out my new power meter.

Sure! Christmas/opening presents then playing with kids from 7:30 to 11:30. Run till just about 12:30, family over for brunch at 1:00. Short mountain bike ride at 4:30 - all in the rain :(

Yup, rode 2.5 hours; had to get my (new to me) PT outdoors, it's only been inside.. Much, much different than riding with HRM alone... And certainly good to be off the trainer... It's quiet and *dry* here in Pdx for a change.

This could be a contest among people who don't celebrate Christmas. 45 miles 3.1 hours. 55 degrees and overcast.

But you got to ride outside in such a neat place. It is 24C here and I have a trainer ride tomorrow - your/my coach says I am not allowed outside. So I think you are quite lucky!! :-P

Rode on the trainer while playing ULtimate Alliance (XBOX) with my son. Ride ended at 1:02:20 with a *pop* *pssssssssst* sound.

Who knew you could get a flat tire on the trainer? With one of those fancy orange trainer tubes even? Pinch Flat?

Ride outside? I'm out of the "ride outside" mode. Heck, by the time you get home from work (4:30) and changed, it's already dark.

Flat tire sucked, I had planned to ride for a coupla more hours while watching Rocky 2.

I rode 30 miles today and finished at 12:15 right as it started raining here

"Oh you hate your job? There's a support group for that, it's called EVERYBODY and they meet at the bar."

Evening hour on the trainer here. I set up in the back bedroom with the teevee with no remote control, and since getting off the bike to change the channel doesn't seem right, I ended up spending half of that watching 'Cash in the Attic' because it came on after something else moderately interesting.

Who the heck likes and watches 'Cash in the Attic' anyways? It's like one of the three worst shows on HGTV.

Rode for like 7:00 - 9:00 this morning, and forgot my gloves which turned out to be a really freakin stupid idea.
I got in like 28 or some odd miles, but stopped for like 15 minutes too, so whatever.

30 miles. about 70 and sunny today. life is good. cooked a duck and drank a bottle of 01 chianti classico riserva

---

don't just do something..... sit there

I got a 3 hour ride in the Hill country, followed by a run and then a swim later in the afternoon.

This post is great, because it proves, I do not need a 12 step program from my bike.

Walked dog 35 minutes, and drove out to see the family. No exercise at all.

Now if only I could finagle (yes that is a word) a way for my wife to see this.

Happy holiday everyone!

No photos available from my own ride but I can ensure you it looked like this:



And it's winter season around here.

The ride was along the sea starting from our training base to Guincho and back.

That is a breathtaking view of the cliffs and the sea.

I see white caps - do those mean it is windy?

And the red lane - I assume that is for bikes? Do you ride in that? That is kind of neat!

I know that road!!! Thanks!

Yay bike lane! Here in the middle of Canada I ran an 8-miler - it was going to be longer, but some part of me was getting colder and colder, and I assume people would have given me funny looks if I had started rubbing it. The bike sits mutely on the trainer - it knows the score. Group trainer sessions in another couple of weeks though! j

The red lane is indeed for bikes BUT on summer time it's usually fulfilled of people skating and just walking with their dogs so not ysed for "real-deal" bikers. And it's a very, VERY, windy road.

One of the top three worst shows on HGTV? That would mean it's pulling slightly higher ratings than NHL hockey in the US?

Trying to find ways to pass the time.

Road two plus hours on the new mountain bike (my Xmas present to myself). New bike is insane, Santa Cruz Blur, full suspension. It does all the work for you, just need to sack up and hang on.

Chilling but dry here yesterday. This afternoon is not looking so good.

Trying to find ways to pass the time.

Did a good 50 Miles on Christmas day with a couple 1000' good climbs & was home by 10am. Was a great day to ride here in Los Angeles. Most people must have been opening presents & the weather was perfect. So much for the rainy season....

4 hours on the trainer?

You've earn my eternal respect!

Bike:

25th: 2,5h = 65k
26th: 3h = 95k

Sunny, 0-2°C over here in Germany!

I did a double run day on 25/12. Its good to be in Portugal, weather you can train in even in the winter

Um, will you adopt me? You get some great surf in Portugal. What a combo, surf, train, drink port. Okay time to buy a lottery ticket, this working for a living sucks. Maybe I'll knock over a liquor store.

Ok the photo doesn't really show traffic but THAT'S the problem with bike training around here. Also, you don't have much of a choice to ride.. either you go thru this road or you go to a loop on the "mountains". And that's pretty much it. Two places to ride and not for very long (short loops).

Well.. I guess this' a problem everywhere in the World as long as you live nearby the capital city.

The traffic is a problem everywhere for sure.

Do you do any open water swimming in that ocean?

The view is sure beautiful.

I got hit by a car on the 23rd... which kind of limited the riding/running on Christmas day.

Actually it was a pickup truck being driven by a guy who didnt de-frost his window.

I guess ill be out of action for a few weeks as my knee destroyed his grill.

Oh well.

Although it looks quiet on the photo, it's actually kinda scary in loco. It's the atlantic ocean you see and it's quite good for surfers and bodyboards (we have people coming from all over the world) but not so good for triathletes. Still, we sometimes have a go on those waters. I personally prefer the peaceful indoor 50 meters pool we have. I like to always practice safe-swim :-)

Oh, man! I am so sorry! I feel your pain. Any major damage to the knee? I hope that you recover quickly. Now for the big question: How's the bike?
