SWBKRUN- Miles and Miles ahead!!!! CLOSED (Page 104)

Have a group question - What kind of running shoes do you wear?  I am currently wearing some Mizuno Wave Elixir's for training and Saucony Fastwitch for races.  I am considering making a switch.  I need a neutral shoe with a little support.  My birthday is coming up in a couple weeks and I know I am getting another pair of shoes from my parents and I already have a gc for my running shop to use. 

I think I read while skimming the last ten pages yesterday, someone asked about bike shoes.  I use the Specialized Trivents and love them.  Tri specific, two straps, drain for water, and no socks needed.  A+

Who's racing this weekend?

Havin'Fun - 2010-01-20 9:06 AM We are celebrating our 10 yr anniversary this weekend....wow has time flown!  So we thought about going back to Fiji, where we honeymooned (very romantic), or go on a cruise.  Our choice...take our 8yr, 7 yr & 6 yr old kids on a Disney Cruise. 

So my focus for the next few days is getting everyone packed and on board with everything they "need".  Harder than packing for any tri I've done

swbkrun - 2010-01-19 8:17 PM Tracy... Race your seat on your Trek!  Get AERO!!!

Hey

If you are going to take over my job at least do it with a little pizzaz!

So, who is toeing the line this weekend?  what are your stretch goals?  And if you aren't racing what is your one focus workout of the weekend?  And yes, I said one!

I took care of that a while ago, the photo is from when I first got the bike.  Seat hight didn't change to much but bars were extended and dropped.  Even the Madone got an aero re-fitting.  WATCH OUT, MAMMA IS AERO NOW!!!!


Everyone tell me what a wonderful wife I am.   Since I will be doing my first IM in 2011, this season is all about the hubby.  He just signed with a coach, is looking at power meters and I bought him a brand new jonny wetsuit to start his season of "going long".  For someone who claims to be a natural sprinter he is getting too damn good at endurance racing.   So this year I am looking forward to being the primary photographer and race sherpa.    Please excuse me while I go render first aide to my pocket book. 

trying1 - 2010-01-20 8:27 AM Linda i heard Disney Cruises are amazing, great for kids and adults.  You guys are going to have a blast..

Trevor..  i have a pair of zoots and I would have to say they're not for everyone.  If you're going barefoot in them be prepared for huge blisters.  Most people I know who have these shoes get them.  The only time I wear them is when I go to the gym and do a swim and short run and I end-up wearing a thin pair of socks. 



CT status update..  So the guy I bought it from sent me all new cables and I still have the same problem!  I lose connection after 30 sec into a course..  So now the guy I bought it from is coming to my apt with another head unit and motor thing on Friday (over an hr drive for him).  This guy redefines the definition of service, especially since this is used!  hopefully we can get it going.

Tracy, You are awesome!  There is nothing better than doing an IM with a totally supportive spouse.  It will be all the sweeter for him.  And you will probably have a great time as well...not to mention learning a thing or two through his journey.  Good for you!!

tahrens - 2010-01-20 11:16 AM

Secret motive:  if the coach works I get him next year, not to mention the power meter!  I already have my eye on his new pointy helmet.
