Member ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Originally posted by Richardsdrr Originally posted by laffinrock Eek! I just signed up for 2 races! One's a training run (1.5 miles) in 3 weeks, and the other is a sprint tri on 8/17. They sound so puny compared to what a lot of you do but this is a huge step for me and I wanted to share it with my fellow Manatees. I signed up for a sprint tri in 2011, but never did it because I got hurt. I've had a bit of a setback lately due to increasing my training to 6 days a week but I'm still determined to do a tri. I'm going to keep up the 6 days a week approach, just dial back on the intensity of the workouts for now (a few more pulling laps, lower gears on the bike, no dog on the walk/runs) until the pain settles down a little. Plus I'm getting a sports massage after my swim tomorrow. Yay!! Remind me, what was the injury you had? I've just been looking through your log, and from what it seems, you should be ok on the swim and bike legs, it's the run that you're gonna have to build on. Plenty of time though ![]() Ps. Love the reward scheme you have going. Perhaps I should adopt something like that. It used to be " well, I've gone X months without smoking, and I would have spent £y.00, therefore, I am allowed to spend £z.00 on moi. Maybe I should start rewarding consistency instead. The whole injury thing has been quite a journey. First I hurt my back in June 2011 while training for my first tri. It was just a stupid back bend over an exercise ball because of tightness in SI/coccyx area. I had difficulty walking, sitting, standing, everything for a couple months. Must have pinched a disk or something. In any case, it hurt like heck. Then while doing PT for that, I discovered I'd torn my left hip labrum. Had surgery in Feb. 2012 for that, then tore it again 6 months later (slipped on the kitchen floor!!). Let that go for 6 months thinking it was just soft tissue stuff. Finally went back to the surgeon in March 2013 and she confirmed that I'd torn it again. Had labral repair surgery again in July 2013. Meanwhile, the back pain continued throughout. Before the 2nd surgery, I couldn't stand or walk for more than about 15 minutes. in March 2013, I started swimming every week with my friend who was training for a tri herself, using a pull buoy and despite the back pain because swimming is so cleansing for me mentally and emotionally. In December 2013, I went to an orthopedic surgeon, who told me I needed a fusion and my L5/S1 disk was shot. By January of this year, I was literally ready to throw in the towel on life because I felt like there was no hope for a future without pain. Then I found this amazing chiropractor in mid-January who told me that I didn't need surgery and could be training for a tri within 3 months. He did chiro adjustments, acupuncture, and stretching, and got me doing some core strengthening exercises 6 days a week. And here I am, a little over 2 months later. I agree, the run is going to be the biggest challenge but I know I'll get there. I feel so much stronger mentally and am much more self-motivated and disciplined than I've ever been. I've been through tough times before, mostly emotional. This time is really different for some reason, probably because it feels like I'm finally getting my life back. I really feel like I'm rising from the ashes. |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Originally posted by Asalzwed Originally posted by rrrunner Originally posted by Asalzwed Originally posted by rrrunner Originally posted by Asalzwed Heck-freakin-yes, Oiselle (the company that signed Lauren Fleshman and Kara Goucher) is working on a swim line http://sallybergesen.tumblr.com/post/80913505463/a-swim-story-and-why-were-in-palm-springs I'll bet they are full into tri stuff in the relatively near future. Personally, I think their running gear is FAR superior to just about everything else. So, this is great news for triathlon.
And in case you guys don't know, Lauren Fleshman is married to the triathlete Jesse Thomas (and I've got to imagine theres got to be some tri influence coming from that alone.) Their line is really cute and looks comfortable. Like most fitness related clothing, it is priced to a point that I wait for it to go on sale/clearance. I see that one of our local running shops carries the line (and bunches of stores in Denver). I'll have to try some on. I really like to support small companies when I can. ETA: I am trying to get their blog through Feedly but can't get Feedly to "find" it. Ideas? Eh, it's quality materials made with non-horrifying manufacturing. A premium I am willing to pay. Dunno what feedly is? I don't disagree and their prices aren't much/any higher than the big companies. I just can't bring myself to pay $70 for a shirt, or sports bra, or shorts. That being said, if a company that is more socially/environmentally responsible is higher priced I, too, am willing pay the premium. I think most of their stuff (shorts, bras, tech tank/t) falls in the $30-40 range I had a chance to read her blog over the weekend. I like her approach. Def worth supporting! |
