Weekly Round Up



Wrapping up November and heading into December with a fun Virtual Challenge from the Castelli Colletivo. They call it the December Challenge; create a relay team to complete an Olympic Distance Triathlon. So that is a 1500 meter swim, a 24.9 mile (40K) bike, and a 6.2 mile (10K) run finished in December. So why not just do one event? I have decided to join 3 relay teams and do all 3 events.

So how will I do this? After some brief thoughts I have decided to knock out the 10k asap, probably the 2nd of December. Then maybe try a 40k TT on the bike trainer over the weekend and then use the rest of December to "hone" my pain cave and get another 40K in at the end of the month. The swim will just have to happen. Fortunately the pool is outside, but heated so I will find a "warmer" afternoon and get it done.

Midnight Moonlight Ramble

Over the weekend Bike Houston put on a great event, the Midnight Moonlight Ramble . I had the pleasure of riding the 20 mile route with some good friends. The ride starts and finishes at the George R. Brown Convention Center and takes you through the Galleria area and down Memorial and Allen parkway for a scenic tour of Houston. By the way, the ride starts at 2 AM with the festivities beginning at midnight. The ride is for everybody, Hard Core Roadies, Nob heads, sub-culture messengers and families with tow-alongs.
