I PM'd Slugger.

Some of you asked what the carp is a Thruster Challenge! Here is a link to what a thruster is. My goal is to follow the same schedule as the 100 pushups...

Scroll down to the second grouping called "Crossfit Exercises". Then within that box scroll to Thruster Barbell.

hehe!

I still say it sounds funny!

I did a very crazy thing. Bordering on insanity. I did a 10 mile run on the treadmill. It was so cold and slippery again and I didn't want to risk a major illness setback so I sucked it up and did it. My legs are hating me!

OMG K - I can't even imagine - or, well maybe I can

I did a 7 mile run on the treadmill once, that would probably be about the same amount of time as you doing 7

sounds like it's time for a serving of wine!

Just got back from the pool and I have to get up at 5h30 tomorrow morning for an hour run before the kids gets up. I guess I should head to bed and forget the wine :p

Yeah, it took a lot of focus. I had to take two tiny breaks to make the time go by. And I ran slow so I wouldn't trash my legs so it was even more boring. But in some sick sort of way, it was very satisfying because i made myself do it.

Morning team.

I finally made the right decision yesterday, I had a hard time waking up this morning ... I can't imagine with the wine etc

What is everyone up to today ?

I just finished a 45 minutes run and I have an hour on the trainer to do tonight.

Morning everyone. I have a swim planned this afternoon after a work meeting. It's the pool with the jacuzzi so I plan to spend a little time in there as well. My back is protesting from that long tready run yesterday!

I have a run planned. Outside even, now that the day is above 50 degrees.

I did not avoid the wine last night. This morning was a bit, ahem... rough.

i still say it would have been more fun for us, had you had the wine

but, probably better for the challenge that you didn't

I squeezed in the swim! But was very disappointed to find out the jacuzzi and hot/cold plunge pools were out of service. WTF??? Oh well. I didn't have much time. I was in, showered and out in an hour, which is always a good thing.

Hi Team!

Have a great race Beth and Kristin!!! Can't wait to read the race reports!

I'm doing an hour run tonight and a swim. It's good to be back in Pasco and on plan again, but my legs are definitely feeling the 20.5 miles I've ran the last 3 days

Happy training everyone!!!
