>>I am sure that by next Xmas all you dudes complaining that 30 pts per hour is too low for trainer riding will be back....<<

Dev my friend, I will NEVER complain about lowering trainer points because for me, they will always be low. Riding year round outdoors is one of the reasons I live in California. I HATE the trainer. Now, if you bump up the points for swimming when my pool is closed over Christmas, then I may get cranky. ;-)

Cathy, hey, if your pool is closed at Xmas, just head up the Highway to Soda Springs just outside North Lake Tahoe. They have some of the world's best XC skiing in your backyard (kind of)...its a small piece of heaven on earth:

They have this trail that almost takes you to the summit of Devil's Peak which is amazing. There is also a great view from Point Mariah:

Much more fun than logging pts looking at the bottom of a pool.

Today's points:

2:20 steady outdoor ride this morning (cold) 70 points

:62 min run at lunch (beautiful!) 62

132 today - 507 4 day total

So how many points is riding on the trainer outdoors?? Kids were out playing in the yard so threw the bike on the trainer while they played on the back deck - have to be creative sometimes :-)

Tuesday stats

1:45 on the trainer this morning = 78.75 points (I should have gone a few more minutes for a nice even number .... or figured out some way to ride this afternoon when it was sunny and nice instead of at 5am in my basement)

75 minute run = 75 points

Daily total = 153.75 points

Four day total = 180 + 202.5 + 142.5 + 153.75 = 678.75 points

Allan...you are hauling ass. The weather was too nice this evening, and my son told me that it was OK if I went and hammered for an hour and come back to read him Tintin "Land of Black Gold" before bed. So another 30 pts to bring my 4 day total to 587.

Cathy...can you catch Allan?

Day 1: 150 pts
Day 2: 150 pts
Day 3: 112 pts
Day 4: 56 pts
--------------
Total: 468 pts

Day 4 : Details

Tuesday:

Run: :45 = 45 pts.
Bike: 1:15 = 56 pts. (4x10 on the trainer)

Total for the day: 101 pts.

Total for the VC: 413 pts.

Tuesday = 1:16 ride (38 pts.) and 1:20 swim (60 pts.)

4 day total = 362 points

There's no coasting outdoors either, unless you're a slacker;) Especially in NW Ohio where we just get to ride flat roads into endless 10-20 mph winds!

1 hour trainer ride for 45 for today.

Good news is that the cold is much better. Still sniffly, but nowhere near the snot from yesterday.

4 day total - 225.

CanIronClyde - how's school? Still doing Germany this year?

I'm just following the coach's plan, so probably not. Today is an easy day, vis a vis, points, as my 2 hours on the bike confirm. Easy/short run tonight and that's it, though maybe I'll spin easy on the trainer for a few more points. American Idol is on later.

Tues. (day 4): 2 hr bike hill repeats 60, run 30, total 90

Camp total = 631

Geez Alex.....looks like you got the old FORTRAN punch cards working there. :-)

It's confirmed...I'm not last, yet second from last. Almost there.
Today's totals are a 30 minute swim for 22.5 points and a 2hr5min outdoor ride for 62.5 points. Yes I am going to take those 5 minutes, I need all I can get. Total for today is 85 points. Brings me to a nice round 193. I'm movin up, baby!

Ok, I'm in too . .

4.8 - Sprint Tri (1:05:40, 7th overall, 2nd AG) = ??? pts. Thinking at least 60, way harder than a 1 hour run

3 hour ride = 90 pts

4.9 - 3 hour ride = 90 pts

4.10 = rest

4.11 = 1 hour run @ 60 pts and 1:30 swim @ 67.5 pts

TOTAL THUS FAR = 307.5 pts
