We added a place to add Zwift names in our benchmark spreadsheet way back when - or at least note them there @Coach_Theia maybe we should bump that up for those that joined us since then? That would help with the regulars, not so much the WCC people :woman_shrugging:

Well it looks like Escape from Alcatraz is on for August. Looks like I need to work on my bi-lateral breathing. And a hilly bike of 18 miles with 1427’ gain
Run is 8miles with 550’ gain including the sand stairs. I see hill repeats in my future.

I was working towards Leadville last year and somewhat this year. But our Leadville qualifier may not go on. Everything is up in the air. There’s a few small time trials and stuff I may jump in on but so far it looks like just a bunch of whatever riding… :woman_shrugging:t2:

Do you ride with any groups out there @medic7404?

70

I try. Mostly my husband. I’ve ridden with a few other people over the years but I have yet to find anyone that’s a good fit if I want to push it. We don’t have shoulders on most of the roads so I’m afraid sometimes of going alone with the kids home.

@Marmen21 how many hours do you estimate that 50 miles will be on the bike for you?

75

@Coach_Theia, that is a great question… I’m assuming it will be slow go, since we will be loaded. But could be 3ish hours?

76

Ok, in talking to my friends, apparently I was overestimating! Time wise will probably be more more like 4-5 hours. :woman_facepalming:t4::woman_shrugging:t3:

ok I will get back
to you

I finally have some events to plan for this season. We are doing the medio fondo in Maine. Escape NY in September and I am considering an event in May 125 miles on LI NY if the weather is in my favor.

Some teammates want to do the Empire trail here in NY, 100 mile/ day over 4 days. I don’t think I want to day that mileage every day. Maybe I’ll crew! :rofl::rofl:
