Oh, I know!  No reason to clamor to get on the disabled list.  Geez...

But I offset with a yogurt for breakfast.

Yuuuuup me to please!

I would do it.  It helped me recover tremendously.  I was able to get the inflammation down and work on recovery/preventing it from getting worse.

All of those things should really help.  Are you doing PT?

Some things are better left alone.  I love to eat. My wife loves to cook. We were made for each other

Manatees take me off that disabled list - yeah slightly giddy but nothing serious.  Swam 2.8km last night OWS and didn't roll over so that's good enough to say I don't have labyrinthitis.

Got inspired and motivated by some squad members last night.

So here it is people putting it out there.....read it and weep.

IM Melbourne 6 weeks and 3 days to go.

I have trained a lot for the last 4 months focussing on running and swimming with a bit of drainer stuff here and there.

So 6 weeks of bike intensive focus coming right up.  Starts Saturday.  Yep the bike is going outside.  if this unclipping stop start thing freaks me out, it's running shoes and pedals - don't care.

Funny listening to a podcast the other day about a book called Just Ride - the guy in there comments when studying riders we do not pull and push in perfect circles even with clip in shoes etc.  He said you get just as an effective down stroke with normal pedals.....

This could be the answer!  Woohoo!

Anyway thanks for bearing with me - it's been a rocky road so far.  I am going to be an Ironman.

I thought the same last night and it was 34 C......93F!

We're behind you either way Jo!!! pedal pedal pedal

same here Jo, although this morning it was down to 16 (that's 60*F) which is the coolest it's been for weeks, I even had to put on long sleeves.

Just cause I'm running Mega late for work....again I'm gonna do this all in one post.

Tom - I have a Road Machine by Kurt Kinetic, paid way too much for it cause I got home from the US in June last year and it rained here for 10 days straight so I just went a got it at the LBS cause I really needed to go for a ride. I think in the US you could get a new one for half what I paid for mine oh well, patience.

I have the Cycle Ops Magneto. I like it. Bought it new at the LBS. It's pretty quiet and I get quite a workout when I put in a Sufferfest video.

I'm old skool, I don't have a trainer. I'm also cheap and I live in Florida.

Cycle ops Jet Fluid Pro II I think - maybe those words in a different order.

Easy to set up, pretty portable - had it over a year has served me well.    Haven't noticed any wear and tear on the tire either.

It's as quiet as a trainer can be.

If you're a good cyclist would you consider rollers?  I'm not good enough.
