swbkrun's group - FULL (Page 78)

Good to see you back.  Also I guess we should really talk about training for awhile since there might be new people : )

If we ever get moved out of development/staging.  What's the deal - are we minor leaguers or something? 

We got a bunch of snow here today.  There were only 4 of us in the office at 1:00 today, everyone else had gone to work from home for fear of driving in the snow.  There are usually about 40 of us - I guess I work with a bunch of pansies. 

Sounds like DC.  They call for snow and schools are cancelled.

I think they are giving the new groups time to get people first, we aren't even out of staging and allready have 5 or 6 people so far.  Last year they put everyone out at the same time and some groups only got 3-4 people to sign up.  My wife is in one of the groups, I told her not to sign up for this one because then I would have to watch what I said

Only problem with this is it gives those groups more time to generate more pages, we'll have to have a day of discussing dinner plans, Tracy's seat or Steve's zit just to catch back up : )

Also a group of us are thinking about doing this race.

Gettysburg, PA to DC, 200 miles.

Sounds like a blast, my only problem is I have a sprint on Sunday that I really want to do, it was the first one I did this year, 300M pool, 18 mi bike and 2 mile run, I want to sprint it this year.

Ok, last post of the night I promise, I am writing a program on another computer and am in the process of installing some software I need so gives me alot of time to think.

How is everyones 2008 looking.  We have a new mentor group coming and 2008 is almost up.

I think I can get to 100k swimming and maybe 1200 riding. 

My totals suck!  Now I am really depressed

I think I am going to ask the hubby for help tonight.  Every night this week I have had something to do that kept me from the gym.  Tonight will be no different ...well, except for one thing.  I am going to send the hubby out to the grocery store and have him start making my dish for the work x-mas party so I can go to the gym!!!   One of these days I'll learn I don't have to do everything myself.

Don't feel bad, my training has really suffered lately, the only thing I am trynig not to miss is my running since I am on a training plan. 

I'm a little disappointed.  I wanted to get 100k swimming and set the goal back in October when I had about 67k - guess that didn't pan out too well.  I'm also surprised at the bike numbers, feels like I've spent a lot more time on the bike than that - guess I know what to work on next year.

I was amazed when I learned that the hook goes on the spoke - what a difference!  Too bad I didn't learn that sooner...

I'll be interested to hear how you like those Pro 3's.  I'm this close > < to getting a set, but I might just hold off until closer to race season.

I like mine got a good deal on them from Ebay.  I was surprised how much better they rolled than the stock tires that came on my bike.

BTW make sure you sign up for the new group, There is allready quite a crowd there.
