Girl Passing on Left (FULL) (Page 100)

I am willing to ridicule myself by slapping my a$$ if it makes me go faster (faster=9min/mile or less) besides,have you seen me in spandex...yup really willing for the fast run.

He said something about opening up the sheath or the channel that the tendon runs through and smoothing the edges if necessary. He said it's like a 20-25 minute procedure. I'm gonna go back and ask if PT or something else could help, or at least keep me going until after my tri season.

Thanks for the welcomes! 

Amy, glad to see you back on BT!  Julie, I did do the Steph Johnson last summer.  It filled up fast once it was open for registration.  That would be great if you could make it down for it.  A friend up my mine has loaned me the TI DVD but I still haven't watched it.  Just another one of those things on my ever growing to do list.

Hope all had a great weekend!

good luck with the wrist issues....no more sore ankles, eh?

I was fortunate enough to have met Stephanie when she was alive!!

She and her husband Greg who is the race director were passing thru San Francisco on their way to the Wine Country. I was honored to know her and I was lucky enough to get a few of my family members into the race last year after it was closed! my sister and my niece both did it...it was both of thier first triathlons....I WILL be there this next year...do you know when it is? last year it was September, which will work out well for me if it is that month this year!

Easter is on April 12th.  I officially gave up diet pepsi, but I've actually decided not to drink any soda at all.  It's been mostly ok, although there are times when I just crave the carbonation.  And then of course there are other times when I could use the caffeine pick-me-up!

Back in town and enjoying day 1 of my spring break. We had prime spring skiing conditions with lots of deep soft snow though it was a bit on the heavier side so I am a bit sore but it was well worth it.

I am sooooo glad that I go in my shorts and T run on Friday as we returned to town to find about 15 cm of new snow?! HUH?! No more shorts outdoors for another week or so...I just hope that things clear up in time for my race in 2 weeks! I would be so bummed if it were to get cancelled!

kew - 2009-03-21 4:39 PM Hi everyone. My name is Karen. With Julie's permission, and if it's ok with the rest of you, I would love to hang out with you guys. I am 44 years old, recently divorced and a mother of two teenage boys. I have been running off and on for years. Finally got around to doing my first Sprint last April and absolutely loved it. Would like to do an Oly this year, maybe a Half Ironman next year. After that...who knows Looking forward to chatting and getting to know all of you...

Welcome, Karen! Thanks for the swim tips- I know that I can definitely use them! Have you picked an Oly yet? Are you close to Van-groovy? Dh and I lived in North Van for two years- loved the trails and year round biking- but the rain drove us back to sunny (but snowy) Calgary.

Welcome, Lisa! Congrats on all the races!  Way to not hold back! Looking forward to getting to know you too! The more the merrier- and we are quite the merry bunch...lots of LOL's and LMAO's in this thread.

I see we are still winning the "most posts" award in the 2009 BT Mentor Program   There is one, right?

Sorry I don't get here much.  My home computer is not working right and work is usually pretty locked down.  Then when I do get here, so much has happened since the last time, that I can't seem to get caught up on it all...then there are the times I'm just unmotivated with my injuries and the "big race" quickly approaching...

I did see there are new people here so I'd like to say "welcome".  Julie does an awesome job of inspiring us all, even when we occasionally drop off the face of the earth.  She finds us

As for me, I did get one good day of training this weekend.  An 11-mile walk/run thingy.  I had to walk and stretch alot due to my calf tear still healing and wanting to cramp up on me.  Then a 22 mile bike ride.  This was after the walk/run and my head was a little foggy.  I knew I had an appointment so decided since I can't get my full 30 miles in, I might as well do fewer miles uphill...problem with that is uphill is slow and it ends up taking the same amount of time!  Then I turned around at the halfway point and came screaming down the hill to realize I could have gone up the hill further as coming back was going to be faster...oh well.  I got a nice tan.

Sunday was stuck on the hill all day.  I use the word "stuck" as it was way too hot to be skiing after about 10 a.m.  My daughter raced very well in the morning, and we therefore had to stay all day to make it to the awards ceremony as she got 6th and 7th place on her two runs.  (Top 10 get awards)  Everyone got a little cranky (and stinky) in that heat, though.  By the time we got home everyone needed a nap and no triathlon training got done.  I plan to make up for that tonight.

Julee asked me to update a roster to include the new women. Here's the text and I'm also attaching it as a text file.
