Congrats Joe!!! 

joemac3 - 2008-06-09 4:34 AM I think my work should count as strength training what do you guys think?

I am back but I did not update spreadsheet until today so sorry about that team. I will have this weeks in by Saturday so I am up to date when they do to post weekly results. Have to make up some swim and lifting time this week, but after my bike commutes I will be right on schedule for everything else!

Have a great week everyone!

OK, so hubby and the kids are at the apple store downtown, so I have a few minutes, and I wanna play, so here, goes...

I'm Amy, 33, registered nurse (thus the user name), I have 2 kids ages 11 (girl, turning 12 in a few months), and 6 (boy). My hubby travels alot, and I work an irregular schedule of swing shifts, so I have a weird, unpredicatable schedule that conflicts with my training. I was an age group swimmer growing up and in high school for a few years, then I tried my hand at diving. I never rode my bike much growing up (and less after high school), and I wanted to run, but my legs did not cooperate, so...fast forward to last fall, when a friend called me and said, "hey we should work out together!". We'de been down that road several times before, never making it very far, but she swore she was serious this time because she was training to do a triathlon this summer. "You should join us--it'll be fun". Fast forward another 6 months and here I am, I finished my first tri last Saturday. Yay! I'm hooked, and I'd like to have a cheering section for the next one, probably in July. Even though I'm a strong swimmer, I don't have much motivation to do OWS, so I've been looking at pool sprints. I felt soooo good after finishing my race last week, I think I'm hooked, too.

It's nice to get to know everyone on this awesome team a little better. Now aren't we missing a few intros still? Where is that Sal? He needs to tell us how much he loves cheescake triathlons! (He usually comes running when we talk about cheescake .)

Evenin' Lovers...

Well, my race wasn't totally rained out...  through a series of unfortunate events, however... I was...OUT that is...

Wasn't feeling well yesterday... still not feeling well today... think I've ended up with stomach flu complete with achy neck and spine....   After ending up dehydrated this morning I tried to recover... combine this with the 50 degree temps and rain this morning (that I was not prepared for) and that put me out....

They canceled the bike and shortened the swim to 500m.  My wetsuit did great though (8 or 9 min time)... coworker showed up with slvless shortie and water temp was 48 degrees... I let her use my wetsuit...

I AM signing up for race next Sat... it's perfect...just down the road from where I live early morning start (hubby's on call) and is within the organization I work (county parks and rec)

Now we'll see if I can get dinner down and feelin' better for church tomorrow... all I wanta do is sleep....

Just thought I would tease you guys with a little shot of Mt. Hood in my avatar. One of these slow days I will do an Oregon and Joshua Tree Album so you can see how pretty that area is if you have not been there yet!

Thanks for all the inspires while I was traveling and sorry for not returning them - too busy playing most of the time.

Have a great week of training and time to hit the pool/weight room so I can get to 100% so I don't have guilt ridden last week training syndrome!

velveeta - 2008-06-08 1:53 PM Hey team! We have such a fabulous and supportive group I know we'll start to pull ahead soon. I did last minute 1/2 mary this morning, and it was a good wakeup call re: prepping for my HIM. The race was pretty slow for me, but my goal was to race well rather than to race fast today. I did a long(ish) bike ride yesterday, and I think my legs weren't 100% (and I had some stomach issues too). Anyway, I realized I have a lot of distance to cover before August 10, when I will have to run the 1/2 mary after doing anything else, but, if nothing else, it was a great training run today! Off to ice my foot... Keep up the good work, everyone!

runrachierun - 2008-06-09 5:24 PM Sorry team, I have been out of commission. I did complete my very first tri on Saturday! Unfortunately, I was sick before I started, and I think I made things worse. I still am not going to be able to work out today...I promise to work extra hard once I get better!
