Y'all know the drill....

 The formula and multipliers are as follows:

Temperature Wind factor

30-35 .5 point light winds (5-10 mph) 1 point
25-29 1 points 11-19 mph- 2 points
15-24 3 points 20+- 4 points
1-14 5 points
0 and below 8 points


Precip Bike multiplier

drizzle/light snow 1 point 1 point for outdoor ride sub 50 degrees
heavy rain/snow 3 points


Suck-o-meter scoring
Time in minutes x (Temp mult+Wind mult+precip mult+ Bike mult)= Suckitude score

dude, you are racking up the points.  You have had some monster workouts in the crummy.  Nice going. 

I'd love to see an updated chart on where everyone is through week 10!  (hint hint)

This morning's run was probably the end of the week outside for me.  Trainer and swim tomorrow.

360 + 350 + 330 = 1040 total.

My first week over 1000 points!  Awesome.

not a lot for me this week. did one run indoors, since i'm planning on joining the Y and wanted to try out the machines before joining. walked there and back...twice...but i won't count that.

1/25 - 59 x 4 (21 degrees, 8 mph wind) = 236

912 to date, and need to add this AM's total. Need verification from the crapi-sorofraternity.

How do I count todays points? I left and the thermometer read 20 degrees/ official was 24 and ended it was 25. I counted it as 2 points because it was in between.

Then the winds were registered as 20-24 mph so nobrainer of 4 points

Thus coming to 6 x 60 =360 or do I get the 7 f or the 420?

I just think the 6 multiplier is good. Everyone OK!

by the way 912 was not adding the 360 - so . . .

that is . . .

(hitting the calculator buttons)


1272 + one goat ride to go!

I almost forgot, I would like to thank JSZAT for setting up this challenge. It really has helped with my training for IM CA 70.3 in March.

i would hope I would have done this much work without the challenge, but I know it inspires me to get out and do what I need

THANKS AGAIN!

Yep, this challenge is awesome.  Puts a silver lining on some otherwise bad weather workouts.

Here's my week, likely done.  I need 1.3 miles to set a personal record for weekly mileage, but I doubt it's gonna happen, so here's the damage.  Great job everyone!

Heres what I got for this week!  Way to keep up the "crappy" workouts everyone!!!!

 1/23 Run - 70 mins * ( 3 [20F] + 2 [15 mph winds]) = 350

1/24 Run - 41 mins * ( 5 [11F] + 0 [3 mph winds]) = 205

1/25 Run - 62 mins * ( 5 [7F] + 1 [9 mph winds]) = 372

1/27 Run - 108 mins * ( 3 [24F] + 2 [12 mph winds]) = 540

THis weeks total: 1467 pts!

EEeeaaawwwww!!

you all are so darned inspiring
the sun in st. paul is shining
but the temp is so low
i don't want to go
i guess i should stop all my whining

the temp is a frigid nineteen
snow is falling, i've plainly seen
the wind is quite brisk
but you'll all say 'tsk tsk'
if i stay indoors to dust and clean

so, i guess i should go for my run
i hope that its somehow some fun
i'll wear lots of fleece
my pace will not cease
thanks for the inspiration, everyone!

pretty sad eh? hee hee. okay. off i go! 19 degrees, snow, 25 mph winds (with gusts up to 31..what fun!)

well, while i was out running the temp actually DROPPED to 14 degrees. wow. wind was 22 mph, with gusts, light snow at the beginning. snow stopped, but the wind seemed to gust more and was kicking up a ton of snow. AND...my right nostril froze shut...TWICE! that should be worth some points, eh???

again, thanks for inspiring me to get out there. i was really tempted to not go with how nasty the wind was...but i'm REALLY glad i did. even running into the wind was sort of fun in a sick way. there is one road i run down that is a wind tunnel even on a mild day. today i thought about going a different way that might be more sheltered, but gave myself a pep talk about how it was only a 1/2 mile and i should get a pace and GO! it was over before i knew it, and i felt so good that i hadn't wimped out. it was by far the best time i've had running this year. since i had the flu, i've been slowly building back up to where i was in december, and the process hasn't been that enjoyable.

60 x 10 (14 degrees, 22 mph winds, snow) = 600!!

836 for the week. can't touch you 1000 folks

sad attempt at more points. rode my bike outside. so i was testing out my new winter commuter and only rode 2 miles...i was still riding outside in the snow!!!

10 x 9 (12 degrees, 17 mph winds, light snow) = 90

so 926 for the week. STILL can't touch you 1000 folks. maybe next week.

ah, i wish i could. we had a full day, and i only managed to squeeze in the test ride by riding to and from a bday party. bill drove w/ the girls. after we all got home, bill & malte headed to the local cycling awards banquet. if i wanted to ride now, it would be in the dark w/ the girls in the burley. maybe i'll get too 1000 next week.
