He is SOOOO unbelievably hot ... and you look just as fab standing next to him! Way to go, girl!

LOL I didn't want to get too close.  I was a bit star struck and BF was taking the picture after all - But then again BF got his picture taking while I was trying on the Triumph TRIACTION triathlon BRA!

Suppose I better summarise what I did over the weekend whilst "Triathlon watching"

Porpise training - Body Surfing in the surf off Caloundra

Running

Swimming laps

 

And that means in I have
14:18:47 left to ride
8:42:20 left to run
8:01:10 left to swim
and 10 sessions of weights to go ;_;

Wow Joe nice running pace there at 7 min /mile pace sustained for 5 miles thats um like what 8.6 mph?

Alyssa, you are like 1 min per mile faster than me... and Joe is like 2 min per mile faster than you.

Hello Wild Hippos

Just a quick update... I'm off to a good start with 2 swims and 2 runs since the 1st, and a bike and core session planned by tomorrow night.

It's a pretty stressful week here (nothing major, just a bunch of work stuff), so I am hoping to burn off steam with my scheduled workouts.

WElcome to all new team members.

Hopefully I will be able to be a bit more social after the next few days wind down. Whew!

Team 7 - you have a new CA teammate!

Owl_Girl is in Humboldt county, CA. For some reason, I'm thinking that's in the northern part of the state. (Do I know for sure? Of course not. I'm 3,000 miles away from there.)

So..... taking a chance that she's in between Lyssa and Steve (Baowolf), I've put her on your team. If she's really in northern CA, perhaps the 3 of you can meet at an event.

(Cat - updated spreadsheet is attached.)

Hello Team! I'm Tracy (owl_girl). I hail from the northern California coast.

I have a lot going on in my life right now so I went with a really simple goal for November. All I want to do is get 200 total minutes of exercise each week. It can include running (my true love), cycling (my new love), swimming (learning to love), weight lifting (gotta love the eye candy), and other sports (when all my other loves are getting on my nerves).

I haven't read the thread yet. I just wanted to introduce myself really quick.

Cheers to all of you! How many is "all" of us, anyway?

Tracy nice to have you on the team.

Nice time on that 8 mile run (8:30 min/mile) you are gona give Alyssa a run for her money. I am probably 400miles east of you, (and 90 sec to 2 min behind you / mile) depending where in the county you live.

Alyssa and I will probably hit a sprint tri in Oregon this spring and teaming up would be neat. I am not sure what your plans are for events for the upcoming year. I am new to the sport (12 weeks now) and am slowly building up for my first sprint tri in December.

OK. I can already see that I need to add a bit more info to my introduction! Where on earth should I begin?! Well, I am a wildlife biologist. I study owls. (Now, did I really need to make that statement? ) I am also a personal trainer and a super indoor cycling instructor. I've been living in Humboldt County, CA and Klamath County, OR for quite some time now. I'm really tired of driving back and forth all the time. I'm busy closing up shop in OR so I can stay in CA 7 days a week! Yay!!! I'm excited! Now you all know why my goal is so simple. I've never done one of these challenges before. I'm really excited to be a part of this!

Steve, you must be close to Klamath Falls. Have you ever done the Deschutes Dash in Bend, OR? It is so much fun! It was my very first sprint tri in 2006. I plan on doing it every year possible.

I've completed 2 years of triathlons. I really love them. I did my first Oly this year (Pacific Crest in Sunriver, OR.) It kicked my butt! In 2008, I hope to do a HIM! I need to get through this whole wedding planning thing first. It really puts a damper on training!

Here's the rest of my stats. I have a super, fantastic fiancee that is a total running nerd, 2 cats, and 3 dogs.

Talk to all of you sooooon!!!!!!

Speaking of team names... since Dee has called us the Wild Hippos are we happy with that? Should we try and get the thread name changed or will everyone lget lost trying to find our team?



So.... you're NOT the Wild Hippos? Hm. That's what I get for having to catch up on so many posts. LOL

As for losing people, you can always leave "Team 7" and add the name of your team to it.

"Hippos (Team7)" or "Team7 - Hippos".... something like that.

I read all of the posts for this team. I wanted to get up to speed. I think Team Hippos is a fantastic name! Hippos are mean critters! They look like slackers until you get them riled up! As for the leg photos.....I'll be posting one as soon as possible! I'm not shy!

Not shy is good! I notice none of the guys have ponied up yet!

And yeah we can talk but you'll also find this team is super motivated too!

Fantastic!!!! That is exactly what I need!!!! I hope everyone has a great night....or a great day for you, Cat!

Thanks - take care!
