Manatees Roar into the 20s! CLOSED (Page 14)

Away hockey game Saturday, 5K race (er, 'race' since I've been sick and am still not quite up to snuff) Sunday, both weather-dependent.

Cracks me up how an 8 mile run is considered 'easing into things'!  For me, that is a big distance.  Take care of those ribs, maybe wait until they are better before indulging in the power washing fun?

Hope the weather cooperates for you! Feel better.

Well...my brother is doing a 135-mile trail run on the 15th of February.  I will just be pacing him for about 20 miles.  20 miles will be easy peasy right?

Have a great run!

Training log question for the group:

As you know, Chris and I have both been doing some testing of FitnessSyncer to BT importing. This could be a way to non-Garmin stuff like  Sufferfest and Zwift rides imported into BT (along with the Garmin stuff that imports now).

So far I can get my Zwift rides in and my Sufferfest yoga workouts and the strength workouts and runs that I record on my Garmin.

My question is, would you be OK with "strength" imported into BT's "sport" category rather than into BT's strength category?

Personally, I don't care -- my strength stuff is basically PT-related at this point.  I thought that people who were recording reps of various things might care.  Any thoughts?

Also, Chris, what are your experiences? Is FitnessSyncer working for you now?

I don't care which category the strength records under. I don't keep that close a watch of my strength numbers on BT. 

same here.

It's whatever you want it to be!

Keep on moving!

I'm so glad that you were able to get outside -- long overdue!

Does your school system have off for MLK?

Great picture and good for you on getting your outdoor run in. 

I've only been to the Oregon coast once -Cannon beach to be precise, and loved it! You're right in that it is totally different than any Florida beach.

Glad you were able to get out and enjoy it.

Hello Manatees! 

JoGo challenge check-in day! 

It really pained me to mark my good eats tab as no because i said that my goal was to eat 5-7 servings of fruits/veg every day and i did 6/7 which i am super happy with but is still not the challenge! progress is progress though! 

Hope those off for the holiday have a lovely day. It's not a holiday here. I have my daughter with me at work because there's a one-day teachers' strike for our board today (it's a whole province-wide negotiation so it's a whole thing). But she's been to the office with Darren a few times and i thought she would actually like my office - so here we are! 

Swimming tonight with the club! 

Have a great swim!

I have off today for MLK and decided to run at a bout 9:00 this morning so that it would be sunny and warmer.  Zoe and I got up and did her walk and then I had a relaxed morning and went for my run.  It was a whole 1 degree warmer than it was at 6:30 when I walked her.  Thank goodness I waited!

I need a JoGo restart!  Last week was pretty challenging--we had about a foot of snowfall over several days.  Not a lot to many of you, but here in Vancouver, that is relatively unusual.  I actually LOVE the snow, but I try not to drive in it, because no one knows how to and we don't really have the infrastructure to deal with clearing the roads, so I take transit.  However, our above ground subway does not deal well with snow and freezing temps, so there are massive delays and crowding.  Time that could have been spent training is spent commuting.  On Thursday afternoon it was so bad, I decided to walk home from the neighboring city rather than wait for the train--a distance of just 7km, but a good uphill, in snow and unshoveled sidewalks!  Took 90 min--I was supposed to do a 90 min run and figured by the time I got home on the train I wouldn't want to run, so might as well walk!  I did do a fun nighttime snow run on Tuesday as well.  But....no core or strength for me.  I shall go weigh myself now, but I doubt it will be pretty .

Ah well, it is a new week, the rain has returned, and the snow is melting.  Back to the normal Wet Coast!
