Now that the cold weather has officially hit
at least in Utah, how many miles did you log this year?
I started with a goal of 250 miles for March, April, and May. And 500 Miles for June, July and August for a 2250 miles for the season. September and October are usually a crap shoot for me with football, family vacation and business trips so I i didn't and wont set goals for them. Well, I fell short of that totaling 1,793.4 miles for the year or 298.9 per month. Thinking back, I don't know how I will ever get to 500 miles a month unless I start commuting by bike. Finding the time for 60-70 mile rides is difficult at my pace and choosing to climb as much as I do.

3367 miles so far. I hope to get at least a hundred more in. Mid 40's yesterday with a little bit of rain but those 44 miles still felt better then 15 minutes riding inside.

As of today, it has been 2300 miles on the bike, 600 miles running. I'm hoping to get another 100-150 miles riding before the end of next month.

6000 miles on bike 1100 miles of running. And much less swimming. But I did too many junk miles and not enough quality miles, but I do have a good base. Next year, more quality miles, more hard stuff so that I increase my speed over long distance.

I hope so. I think the wife is just excited to get rid of me for a week so she didn't care.
