ironannekidd - 2011-02-01 6:14 AM Good morning everyone!

Everything is ice here today so I am home again. Most likely I will only work 1 day this week. It irks me I have to use my vacation time during the winter, I'm really hoping they eventually close the base so I don't have to burn my time.

What's everyone have on tap for today?


I have nothing on tap for today .....other than tracking this storm that is suppose to hit illinois pretty hard

eurasn1 - 2011-01-31 11:44 PMJust got back from the gym.  Swam 600m (8x75 30secs rest between).  Feel ok.  Now I know how much better it is to get there early in the a.m. without having to deal with all the horseplay going on.
Way to start the day! Good job.

Out2BeALoser - 2011-01-31 6:34 PM Well I had hoped to run outside but the wind picked up and it got too cold. So, did my long run on the treadmill, which I hate but I sucked it up and did 6.66 miles. No I'm not the devil, that's how ar I got in 90 minutes


nice run yesterday

Morning all!  The cold weather has finally come to Central TX.  (Cold for us, anyway.)  It's 28 deg and there's ice on my car.  At least the roads are dry!

Going to swim today; probably just some easy repeats.  2nd swim of the year, so I'm still getting back in the swing.  My knees are still shot from the weekend, so I think I'll focus on bike and swim this week.

What's going on today?


Good morning Ann....my plan is to get out of work early.... before the ice storm hits


The goal should also be to get home safely!

They are calling for the ice here tomorrow.


UPDATE:  everyone is making a mad dash to the stores and buying everything in site


Has it started doing anything yet?

Usually around here if they are calling for snow or ice there is a run on milk and bread at the stores.


We got some ice last night, and expecting a lot more today.

My wife and I got to the Y today for strength workouts and swimming - we just about had the place to ourselves. It was particularly nice b/c our Y needs a bigger pool. In the Summer it is fine, but it gets a bit crowded in the Winter.

Having someone to work with you on your swimming is fantastic! Nice job on the workouts, too.

Being in WA state, no snow/ice issues here right now.  Went to the gym for a quick run/bike.  Hope everyone stays safe and warm.

So in anticipation of being cleared to workout soon, and spring coming, I ordered a few things this week.

I ordered new running shoes, and I ordered a Speedfill hydration system for my bike. I hope I get lots of use out of both this summer.

Good morning!

Its going to be a high of 70 here in NC...but dont get the wrong idea this is definitely abnormal weather for us! I got fitted for new running shoes on sunday and its definitely going to take some time to get use to them. The guy who was helping me has done several triathlons one being a half iron man called beach to battleship which is in Wilmington NC in November. I would love to do that race, it sounds like a lot of fun but it seems like a lot to accomplish even though its so far away.

Why do you think it is going to take you some time to get used to your new shoes?

Beaches to Battleships is a great race. It's a non "Ironman" brand, but they do the half and the full 140.6 distance. Several BTers have done it and said good things. It's on my list of things to do, too. Plus I love the Wilmington area.

The insoles that are in my new shoes have more of an arch support then i'm used to. Its something i definitely need but not something I have ever had before. Are you going to do the full ironman at beaches to battleships or the half?
