SBR Challenge 2014

BTH · 31-03-2014 2:09pm

Thankfully three consecutive weeks training in March. Swimming still not feeling completely normal, but close. Running is going terribly. Really really terribly. 10 weeks for things to come round before we start racing.

HA! and I thought January was crap. Three decent days at the start of the month and a failed attempt at a comeback in the middle. 10 of my 12.5 hours for the month were done in those first three days.

It's gotta get better soon, right?

Bambaata · 31-03-2014 6:31pm

Two weeks of just running and a bit of swimming for me as i head from these cold shores for warmer waters! Costa Rica here i come baby!!!!

Solobally8 · 31-03-2014 6:56pm

So jealous! Have fun

The Lost Sheep · 31-03-2014 7:40pm

Lucky you Bambaata!!
3 silvers for me this month. Kms and hours are increasing month on month but no real intensity to what im doing. Though finished college in 4 weeks so should be able increase no end once im done the few exams

REAL RUN NUMBERS

Feck all cycing, feck all swimming though but trying to pull it all together now and getting more cycling done. Swimming has gone downhill but thats down to lack of pool time due to falling and shoulder issues. Easy run week now so going to try pull swimming back and get out on the bike...run still my priority though.

68 lost souls · 01-04-2014 12:15am

I think my arms are gonna fall off. Wanted to get my first silver to make up for the lack of running and cycling and pushed close to 3km (2.7) tonight in the pool. Couldn't even lift the cup of tea tonight. Made it though so I'm happy.

shotgunmcos · 01-04-2014 6:50pm

Sorry for delay - April Open :pac:

sconhome · 07-04-2014 12:43pm

Certainly making up for it. I feel ashamed with my measly effort tonight. At least I got up and finally used the turbo for the first time. Need to clock up much more before June.

First races I have signed up for this year. Nothing major distance wise but I just feel much further behind then I was this far out from my first race last year.

sconhome · 08-04-2014 2:39pm

I'm on a streak 4 days training in a row

Going for the big 5 this evening. Wish me luck!!

RacoonQueen · 08-04-2014 4:37pm

First week of every month this year has been a disaster

How many sessions will it take you to clock 40 hours? The duration of your summer race!

First 40 hour block will be done within 3 weeks. Minimum 150k running 600k cycling. Them's the goals just to start from.

well someone just kicked into gear

Bambaata · 10-04-2014 3:56am

We'll April is off to a flyer. I've about 40-50k ran, a massive 2k swam and an enormous 0k of cycling!! Excuse is - I'm in Costa Rica!!! If anyone ever thought of coming here DO IT!! It's a forest and wildlife eco-system on steroids!!

Oh and running in 35-40C heat ain't pretty

68 lost souls · 12-04-2014 2:07pm

Missed my first 3 swim sessions of April but started making up massively last night. Took part of the Swim to Midnight in UCD and 5km in just over 2 hours. Shoulders are feeling rough today. Most I've ever done at once.

mossym · 26-04-2014 6:17pm

in case anyone spots something having gone on, i corrected something in the table just now. one of the ranking cells instead of ranking the score, was set to a fixed value. it wasn't mine:) so if you suddenly see your score having gone down a bit that is why

mcos, you should be able to see what i did, if not pm me and i will explain. not up to anything dodgy!!!

Green&Red · 26-04-2014 9:34pm

My month ended today, concussed after coming off the bike on the track in sundrive, scary thing, could remember my address but not my job and what I did yesterday.
Ligaments torn, could have been much worse

68 lost souls · 26-04-2014 11:33pm

Hope your feeling better soon Green&Red, sounds painful. Concussion is a scary thing alright, was out of it for days with it. Glad it wasn't worse.

The Lost Sheep · 26-04-2014 11:56pm

That's tough Green&Red nothing worse than it(unfort its happened a few times to myself)
When April is closed off at end of the week can someone lock March as well..

The Lost Sheep · 30-04-2014 11:38pm

Has someone removed my kms for April? All my name and everything is gone for April..

Sh!t, that might have been me. I see my name is in the list twice.
Sorry, can the mods fix it?

sconhome · 01-05-2014 9:50am

You can go back in an undo your last actions yourself or someone can look at the revisions and undo them for you.

I don't think I was logged into my Google account when I edited the table. I'd be worried I'd break the Internet if I tried what you suggest. Better to leave it to somebody who knows what they're doing.

the numbers are different for both zico10 entries. The lost sheep, can you confirm if one of them is/are your numbers? I'll change whichever one it is then.

The Lost Sheep · 01-05-2014 12:23pm

the second zico10 on line 28 below AKW is me.
thanks mossym

mossym · 01-05-2014 12:28pm

Should be sorted now. Your overall is updating correctly as well(i think, make sure yourself) so you should be back in business

sconhome · 01-05-2014 3:21pm

Bike silver and run bronze. I'll take that for this month thanks. May get serious now

hf4z6sqo7vjngi · 01-05-2014 4:30pm

Probably the only time i will ever top the swim in a month!!

RacoonQueen · 03-05-2014 1:47pm

Gave up on logging in April. Must try throw everything together.

I've reached the stage in the year when the SBR table has to take 2nd place to the NS table... so less volume, more specific training, for me. Best of luck to you two kids duking it out!

sconhome · 06-05-2014 5:39pm

Between Endure 24, Race to Kinvara (just announced) & the Beast I better get a least one gold if not two in both run and cycle for the next 3 months or I'll be in trouble with the Captain

Oh! I didn't realize I had hit the mark! Whoop whoop!!

Of course, all I am doing is swimming at the moment, so comparatively speaking it's not all that impressive really. But hey, I'll take whatever scraps of sunshine I can get!

Shotgun is right. Unless you have two punctures next Saturday or in Kilkee it'll be game set and match to you before we even get to Mallorca. Would have to throw two running races into the mix and make it a best of 5 for me to have any chance of winning.
