Wow, Fatty's now in the "Haus", he'll be exchanging cryptic messages and talking about Vdot and ROI with Dino next...! I was hoping to get some surfing in over Christmas but I'm a bit rusty and we're being hit by a 9 foot swell due to a cyclone up North so I think I'll err on the side of caution.Thanks for the advice re: marathons?HIM's, I think I going to concentrate on getting ready for a marathon (Gold Coast in July) and then I can always target a HIM later in the year. I'm going to use Don Fink's Mastering the Marathon book, anyone have any experience with this? Time for wine, mince pies and more wine! |

| Chatham Ontario | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN -CLOSED DUE TO TRAINING Thanks everyone. I have missed a bunch of you over the last 5-6 months of my crazy life. needless to say I have gained some weight and I need to commit to things and get going. I mean I signed up to do my first HIM distance race... Bring on REV3.... I just can't seem to get motivated while working 6 days a week.. But I will and I can. Hell I did it before when I was 279lbs so I am not sure why 219 is bothering me so much right now.. I will pull that 19 lbs off and kick butt.. I know John is happy to have another Canadian back in here with him ..... .Right

This morning's workout was a killer specially designed for the Christmas holiday by my sadistic trainer. He's already warned me that next week will be even tougher. Man I love off season training. |

I think it's sometimes easiest to get in the weightloss mindset the first time you do it. It can take a bit more to mentally get there repeatedly. Just noticed you're from Chatham. My parents, grandparents and some other family live there (and I was born there), so I expect to visit in the summer. |

The only thing that will kill you is updating that table with your results. I had a nice one two years ago and the formatting would fall apart if I tried to add too much. Now I have the George version--nothing! |

Are the holidays over yet? Can't be rushed into these things. This is my first day off work for my winter vacation. I'm still in my pjs and I've only been out of bed when absolutely necessary P.S. I've taken the HIM off my planned races and put it back on about five times now! Still wavering! Really want to focus on improving my running this season and think maybe I should just focus on that and stay with the spring/oly distances for another season. |

However, 4 days here is going to seem like a very long time. The issues run deep and passive-aggressive behavior dominates. Wish us luck. |

Hey DEB that is AWESOME... stay in touch through the year. We have a growing triathlon crowd here. And a growing running group. Chatham Kent is on a mission to well change it from being Chatham. (I am not from here) but my wife is and I have been around here for 18 years now. My buddy that is a personal trainer has put out a challange on youtube to all of chatham kent 12-12-12... 2012 12 months 12 tons. For chatham to loose the weight and get healthy.
Thanks for the insight. You are so right first time around I was so driven and it just started out with some hard work but I got it done. I have been saying it a lot lately. I wish I had the drive I did when I was much fatter then now. If I had that drive again, I could be a rockstar....lol
