First Week!!!!!

OH NO! I look like the big slacker. I just PMd my stats to dave.

Should I just PM my mins per week to him on Sunday? I don't log online b/c of my schedule, but keep a manual log.

All right...here I go.... I swear I'm off to do my first workout... Any minute now...

Yeah, and I'm for sure getting up at 7 am to work out when I don't have ANYTHING to do the whole rest of the day (including work)!

You guys! You guys! I did it! I got up off my ass!

Mark me down for 2,000 meters in the ol' swimming log. Looks like now I'm AHEAD of schedule, according to Michel's calculations.

Thanks, but my numbers are fubar'd.  After the initial goals, I had to downward adjust to 30,000/200/35

Not sure where my done numbers are from though, wim and bike I've got more than you list but run I have less ??

As a warning, my shin splints are back, I might have to drop the run portion.   We'll see....

Eh, I'm sure we'll have some errors during our weekly updates, especially if we have to convert units. The only numbers that matter are the ones at the end.

I hope the shin splints don't get too bad. Do you do those tibialis anterior exercises for them? If not, I can give you the low down. They help.

Is there a second week forum? Oh, probably that will come after we report this weekend, huh?

Anyway, just wondering how things are going? I just realized I"ll have to be creative the last week of the month. I start back to work (I'm a teacher-school counselor, actually) AND, my "regular/usual" pool will be closed that week. And THANK GOD!!! Because the thing is FILTHY...anyone else have that problem? My pool actually tastes like salt water (not that I"m drinking it.)!!!!!

I have to say I'm loving my newfound excitement for strength training-upper body and core especially!

For some reason, though, I'm totally sick of riding my bike. Cycling just isn't what it used to be for me. I'm half-heartedly trying to find some group rides. But, again, just not motivated....there's something about doing an 88 minute ride (yeah, I"m a newbie-2nd training season, sprint) by myself that just isn't appealing, let alone motivating.

Well, that's my random thought for the day. Hope everyone is well. You are all probably so quiet because you are out working out!

Where do you ride? Maybe a change of scenery would help.

I get bored biking too, so I do a lot of out-and-back rides. The idea is that I have to concentrate for only half the distance, and then it's just a matter of getting home.

Dont' give up (until September).
