…Since March 6, through June 4, I have been engaged with a fitness challenge at work. This past week, I rode about 150 miles, via extended commuting routes, and still am in fourth place (of about 40 participants), neck and neck for third place. :twitchy:

Thanks for your encouragement, @Phil_gretz. The Challenge ended on June 4, and I came in third place of about 40 participants, and our team came in first, by a hair-breadth (see graph below; the team standings are at the top from highest upward to lowest, and the top ten individual participants below).
Those standings were released every week, and the competition was very motivating with very beneficial effects. Now that it’s over I am trying to ride at least about 150 miles per week through the summer; 147 miles last week. :D http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=528520 My June Cycling Outside (only)Total is 530 miles (830 km)

My job; either too much to do, so I stay (comfortably) overnight and resume very early in the AM, missing my commute; or have to travel afar for a meeting. And to a lesser extent, family activities…

My June kind of sucked. Only rode 188.7 miles and ran 16.2 miles.
|
I commuted 13 days only this month; thwarted by a crash that resulted in a separated AC joint and commuting days lost.
Total cycling: 620 km Total running: 45 miles |
I rode lots.
Had fun. No crashes or flats. Disconnected my bike computer months ago so no data, hence the "had fun" part... |

I guess June was good to me, despite a number of days in the triple digits (and therefore not on the bike). I had my fastest times and avg speed doing the usual group ride. Fell behind on commutes, but I'm not overly worried...I'll get back to them when the 4 PM temps are a little more friendly. Still loosing weight - starting to approach the 200 mark. Finally under 205 multiple mornings in a row.
Have a ride up in the mountains tomorrow. |

It started well, a couple of nice rides and an adventurous Gran Fondo on my birthday, and things were looking great for a while. Got a respectable finish in a race, did a morning training ride with friends and Chris "Hoppo" Hopkinson, who happened to be in town, and got a couple of KoM on one little weekend ride. Then last weekend, it all came crashing down in a wreck in Central Park.
25 1/2 hours riding 20,400' climbing 376 miles And that will be it for a while. :( |

I'm confused as to why you report cycling in kilometers and running in miles. Seems backwards.

Didn't ride much with business trips and heat but I did actively contribute to the "is this place dying thread" and managed to upset a BF member's thin skin. So I'd consider the month a "win."

Best June ever for me - 830 miles, 76,000 ft, and 57 hours.
