Champion ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() ebshot - 2009-12-07 1:10 PM Got my trainer ride done. Jorge's plan called for a 20 minute test. OUCH! I do hope to see some massive improvements come tri season! Course when you are as slow as me, it would be hard not to improve! Edited cause I'm a dork who can't spell! That's on the agenda for me tonight... I did a 1000yd swim TT yesterday - just to mark a reference point for myself. Sorta did Jorge's optional workout last night (also baked some pumpernickel and peasant bread)- about 90 min (instead of two hours) at a upper z3 pace on the CT - watts averaged 163 over that time (although I have no idea if that is good or bad....). Dropped by the pool at lunch today for some speedwork (if that's what you want to call it) - 8x25, 7 x50 6 x75. Ran out of time before the 5x100... |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Evening Vixies!! Made it through work today and then taught spin tonight. Since John Lennon died 29 yrs ago tomorrow I played lots of Beatles tonight. I love listening to all that old stuff from Sgt. Pepper, Abbey Road....we managed to work hard too. I posted the playlist in my blog.

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() ashort33 - 2009-12-07 10:15 PM I actually started teaching spin because it was really hard to get into the class. You had to call 24 hrs in advance and I either forgot or called too late. I figured if I was teaching I would always be able to get in! I only teach twice a week so it really doesn't count for a "job".... I have fun with it though....KOM - 2009-12-07 8:59 PM Evening Vixies!! Made it through work today and then taught spin tonight.

She got so excited that I asked and offered me a job before I was even certified, she facilitated the entire process and now I teach 3 classes a week as a part time fun thing, still have my regular full time job, but who knows maybe in the future I might transition into a full time fitness professional. |

Extreme Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Missed yesterday, did get to the Y today. Did a 2.25 run and a 4 mile bike. the bike I like is fixed and more realistic. It is an "Expresso" or something. Has a tv with the course, other riders and a pacer. I always kick that pacer's tail! LOL. The 4 miles was accomplished in 18:22 - which is a lot closer to real life for me - except for the hills that were on this course. Real time I would have been closer to 23 minutes, I'm sure. Lets go team! |

Elite ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Wow, we have a lot of weight loss on our team. Stacie has dropped a lot of weight too. I lost 70 or so pounds a few years ago and have kept it off. Go team Vixen. We rock the weight loss! ![]() |

Elite ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I just finished my run. It wasn't the best run. I had Chinese food for lunch today and let's say it wanted to revisit me on this run. Ugh. Remind me not to eat Chinese before running ever again! |

Elite ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() We are supposed to get some snow tomorrow. I hope the kids get the day off from school. If they do, I plan to do some baking with my daughter, Alex, and then watch movies with the three of them and then go play in the snow. Just an all around fun day planned. Of course I'll get my trainer ride done in there somewhere but I won't be able to get my run in. Of course this is all assuming they don't have school. Finger's crossed! |
