Ruddy ‘ell Tony! What with this trainin’ regiment and tha diet tha’ll be a racing whippet by t’end o’ t’ year! 😀

If I wasn’t injured then I’d have been up for it. Maybe I’ll start later in the year instead 🙂

500 miles a month between Nov-Feb sounds horrible. Best of luck to you but count me out!

Do Zwift miles count? 😆

I’m down for 140 miles per week – mix of commuting, racing and zwifting.

I’ve pedalled 150 mileS this month already so 500 mileS should be feasible. Not sure I want to do it every month though.

I seem to remember that you commute by bike as well, that helps pile on the miles. In my case it just so happens it would just about come to 500 miles per month 😯

Well I followed the thread but didn’t join any endomondo group last year, and averaged over 500 a month (I missed whole of June after being hit by a car and finished the year on 6915).

Started this month with a few rest days after the Festive 500 and am still in CX season which means low mileage days- in fact I have 2 double-header weekends back to back at the end of the month.

So yeah I’m up for it but already predicting I’ll miss it this month!

Hearing the rain and then hail nearly caving the windows in for hours last night put paid to this mornings commute.

In typical fashion, it was dry for what would’ve been my commute time…

That’s beyond me I’m afraid, but good on you.

Having been someone who got badly caught up in an obsessive exercise cycle years ago (weights), just make sure that you never stop enjoying it (and if you do, ease off)!

I’ll get to the 500 mile mark on the commute home 🙂 That’s despite not doing anything last week due to a cold.

Also managed the Strava climbing challenge (7500m for the month) but that’s easy to do round here – a month’s commuting would amount to 7000m!

I think it’s helped that January has been pretty mild and dry.

@gary_M I know what you mean about December – it just feels like a drag to get to the year end and everything’s always dark for the commute. This week I’ve noticed that it’s much lighter when leaving work even on the dull days, another month and most of the commute will be in daylight.

No, not mild this AM – my feet were definitely cold when I got to work 🙁 Almost a full week’s commute this week – I got the train in on Tuesday AM due to ice but rode home.

I run a dynamo light (front and rear) so it just gets left on.

My Garmin said minus 5.5 degrees this morning. If the car had not been in the garage having new brakes fitted I think I would have driven.

Just been doing some mileage sums. going to finish January on 200 trail miles, don’t strava the commute because it’d be ridiculous – half a mile to the station, and 2 miles the other end. So 300 miles per month average riding, I’m not going to be doing another 200 trail miles, and I doubt I’ll be bothered enough to get out on the road bike for 200 miles if I could be out on the mtb instead.

So I’m going to say no! There’s be a few months I might be over, if it happens it happens. I could ride home once a week, that’d do it. I think I probably won’t, though!

Just over the 500km mark this month (517.3). Missed part of the month on my jollies for my 50th. Not 500 miles but I’m pretty happy with that for Jan. Well done to the 500 milers. I’ll give a go in Feb but according to The Mirror :roll:Feb’s weather is going to be like armageddon!.

I hit 45 miles this year, today! 😀
