2008 mileage as of May 5th?
this is not a contest, just curious where others are at so far this year.
2,460 miles since 1/1/2008 (3,690 km)
your turn.

Way down from last year because the training I am doing requires less miles and more intensity...
1820 'miles' road/trainer/rollers (lets not go there)...

1,831 and...just crossed the 150,000 feet climbed mark. More happy about the latter than pure distance.

YAY for cracking my heal earlier this year! Hopefully I'll be able to catch up a bit. I have little to nothing to do over the summer starting on Saturday.

600-ish. It's been a long winter and, as we all know, trainer miles don't count.

racer-types may not like it, but there are some of us who value the long-distance ride, no matter the pace.
for randonneurs, it's all about finishing, not finishing fast. i did 300km in 13.5 hours on saturday, and i'm very happy with it. plenty of "intesity" for me!

Throw the stick!!!!
I'm at 2,086. Not as many as I would like but I have been worrying more about intensity. Plus, being a first time home owner is taking a lot of my spare time.

I didn't count trainer time (not because i don't believe in it, but because my computer is on my front wheel).
So as of April 1st - 656 road miles. Almost half of my entire last season in one month....pretty big improvement for me.

feel free to start a thread for "time spent in the saddle in 2008," or "intensity level for 2008" - this is the distance thread.

thx. =]
my other, more subtle, point was that long distance and intensity aren't mutually exclusive, although this is oft-missed here in the roadie forum.
