The Epiphanies (Team 2) - January Challenge (Page 12)

brick94513 - 2010-01-09 2:16 PM Alright, got a nice, easy, cautious 6.5 mile run in this morning.  My glut didn't go numb, so my rehab most be working.  It sure felt good to run again; I was going through withdrawals.  Now, more trigger therapy and stretching!  I'm going to take the rest of the day off.  Still have the sniffles.

yogachic - 2010-01-09 3:39 AMThanks everyone for indulging in my "bike trainer" poll!  I think I have a better idea of what to get now  

Besides all the hunger today, I feel pretty good after my tempo run last night.  Tonight is a yoga & a movie night for me, and tomorrow morning is my long run... 10 miles this week!  It snowed all day yesterday and is supposed to snow again this afternoon, so depending on if they've cleared the running paths & how slippery it is, I may have to do my 10-miler on a treadmill. 

On Sunday, I'm planning on going cross-country skiing with some of my tri club friends.  It should be fun

mav - 2010-01-09 8:40 PMHi team. Still injured...no real running and/or biking.I havent changed my goals but will next week when I know more about how my back will affect my training. Sorry if it drags the numbers down this week. I did get 2 swim sessions in ...so was able to do something!!!

The green ones a couple people mentioned are most likely Kurt Kinetic. Both Kurt and Cycleops (fluid is the way to go) seem to be the most popular in the US. They're not as common here in Japan so I ordered an Elite Fluid trainer about 3 weeks back and hoping it arrives soon. I can run in anything, but I'm a wimp on the bike.

rnihill - 2010-01-10 11:36 AM I just barely survived taking the kids ice skating ouitside... I don't think I'm ever going to warm up!! I just can't bring myself to go back out there for an extended period of time. I think I'm going to head over to the Y after my daughter's playdate for some swimming, indoor running on the track and some hot tub!!

LycraCladChamp - 2010-01-10 1:53 PM I was wondering if anyone here did a program that followed the following format?
sun: swim
mon: bike
tues: run
wed: rest
Repeat cycle every 4 days

I think I like this schedule but I also like having the same day of the week be the same kind of workout so I can get used to it.  what do you think of this?

yogachic - 2010-01-10 2:34 PM Hey all, just a quick update from me (will read & respond to everyone's comments when I have time, maybe later tonight)....

Yesterday I was dreading my treadmill 10-miler, so I kept putting it off and putting it off.  I was supposed to meet a friend for brunch, and I realized I put it off too long... So I ended up just bundling up and running outside for a bit, then running to my brunch.  I was a little short (9.14 miles) but I did get most of it done!

This morning was a recovery run with my tri club.  Including the distance I ran to get to the meeting spot & back, it was a total of 6 miles.  Afterward, some of us went cross country skiing (my first time!) so I got some extra cross training in there.

I hope everyone's weekend's going well!  Happy training!!
