Master 2770 Central Kansas | Subject: RE: 9.23.11 Aaaah...Friday!!! Enjoy your half days and rest days. Why aren't rest days really "restful"? It seems like they end up being rest days because we're really just too busy doing everything else to train. I will run later this afternoon -- a very short (2-3 miles) run. I may also take my bike out for a little. The ride yesterday went much better than the first ride with it. I maintained the aero position for three miles. I was going fast enough that I actually thought maybe I should slow down. I kept imagining what would happen if I hit a sharp rock or a bad bump that I wasn't expecting. Does it get easier to control the bike in that position with practice? I'm hoping so. I'm taking a swimming break today. My shoulders are a little achy. I suppose that means I'm doing something wrong. |

Master 6834 Englewood, Florida | Subject: RE: 9.23.11 Aaaah...Friday!!! 8:00 - 27.5 miles on the bike, testing out the new shoes. Clipping in is a whole new word, but it went pretty well. No falling, which made me happy. Now out to mow the lawn, trim some trees, and clean the bike. Is this what they call a day off??? Enjoy the weekend, good luck to anyone having a late season race. |

Extreme Veteran 479 The Woodlands, TX | Subject: RE: 9.23.11 Aaaah...Friday!!! Brick workout. 56 mile ride at race effort followed by a 3 mile run. This was my first attempt at a run after a ride that long and I really just wanted to test my legs. I ended up really pleased and my pace was very fast without really feeling like I was pushing at all. This is giving me a lot of confidence going into my HIM next month. Next, I am going to do the same thing but with a longer run. |

Extreme Veteran 463 Mayberry | Subject: RE: 9.23.11 Aaaah...Friday!!! easy 2 mile run. came to the realization last weekend I'm not going to be able to make it to my last scheduled tri this season (work crap. Transitioning to more running to try and gear up for a 10 K in November, then back to the winter regimen in the gym to see if I can drop another 25 lbs before next season. |
