Slidell4Life's Group - CLOSED for Training (Page 10)

lanceho - 2010-02-05 8:32 PM My race number for tomorrows 5k is number 1 it is certainly not because I am fast but because I was first to pickup a packet my only goal for tomorrow is to run slow and finish especially since I am working tonight then running.

Good Luck Lance! Let us know how it goes.

JeffIrvin - 2010-02-05 8:41 PMI got a new saddle today, very exciting - the ISM Adamo Racing Saddle.  I took my bike down to a palce called Tri on the Run and we put it on a trainer and tried out a few different ones.  This saddle felt incredible!

The best part is I got home and figured I'd log an hour on the trainer and try out the saddle.  I got changed, got my water bottles ready, found a movie and went to put on my shoes and ..... yep, I left my shoes at the store.  It really sucks because the store is 30 miles away and in the center of Houston.  Going to go have a beer ...

I hope y'all have a great weekend of training or racing!

Artist - 2010-02-06 8:34 AM Good luck Lance. Hope the number one is a good omen for you. Wish I could be out running-its snowing again here and I have to go coach a 6-8 year old basketball team. Mostly just herding cats. 

sympatric - 2010-02-05 8:58 PM I am in for the whole enchilada. I expect it to hurt......a lot. HA!Tell you wife (right?) good luck! I would tell you good luck, but after the 5k you threw down I think you are gonna do just fine.

5K DONE my time was 33:40 that means the pace was 10:50 or thereabouts.  Not setting any records but this is the first time since my knee surgery I have been able to stay under an 11 minute pace.

Good luck to those of you running half and fulls tomorrow.

Jeff I love my ISM saddle you will like it but you may end up sore in a little different area for your first few rides.
Going to get some sleep know since I work again tonight.

Hey guys - I trialed an energy gel called Chocolate #9 Agave and did a review for the company.  They gave me a free box and I am raffling it off on my blog.  It is some good stuff (organic, gluten-free) - thought I would share - CLICK HERE if you want to enter!

Artist - 2010-02-09 12:20 PM OK I did my first real brick today. Rode five miles on the trainer and then did a run/walk for 30 minutes. I actually still ran more than walked and maintained a good pace for me. I will up the bike ride next time before the run. I do feel it in my legs now. FOught through some minor knee pain with some adjustments to my stride.
