lkc01234 - 2009-08-07 12:45 PM Race is in 2 days...worried I might've tapered too much...heat advisories will be out for Sunday (race day) so will be starting hydrating tomorrow!


your body will know (remember) what to do come race day....tapering is tough.  i get all squirrely and wonder if maybe ive taken too much time off.  BUT, its always proven to be the right thing in the end....

you race day conditions sound identical to mine.

do you have a start time??

mines at 7:30, though my wave doesnt go off until 8:45, i was hoping for an earlier time.

the earlier the better esp when the low for the day is gonna be 67, the high 91+ humidity.


im being mindful of hydrating, as well.

your gonna ROCK, LISA.

HAPPY RACING.
stacieb


7 am is race start, but will pick up packet tonight or tomorrow - which will tell me when my wave starts.  I'm hoping before 9 am!!  ::cross my fingers:: My legs feel all weak - I might go ona  bit of a run or a swim today or tomorrow early...


sending you SUPERFLY RACE JU-JU, LISA.

crossing fingers AND toes that you get a good wave start time.....so you can beat the heat (i feel ya on that one....)

im going to do a little jog/run/walk (hopefully on the run course) today myself, just to shake it out a bit beforehand.

GET THOSE LEGS OF YOURS READY TO RACE!!!

Just got back from the gym - snuck at ST and swim workout in.  Tomorrow a bike race and then Sunday a run in the AM and bike ride in the PM.

Have a great weekend everyone.

I think it is too late to change titles but maybe Dee or Tinkerbeth would know.  I will send a message out tomorrow - time for football practice!



RACE WELL, BILL.

come back in and let us know how you faired.

So self, what do we have planned today?  Well, I believe it is a rest day.  Hmmm, don't we HAVE to do something so we don't have that ugly yellow square on our calendar?  As a matter of fact, yes we do.  What shall we do then to turn it to a more pretty color?  Actually, I'm thinking abs and stretching...something we can never do enough of and we don't seem to do it as much as we should! Alrighty then, let's go....


MICHELE.

your really good at that.

Hey everyone -- just got back from my afternoon "therapy".  And boy did I get lots of therapy -- started with shopping therapy, added a little movie therapy (Harry Potter!), then finished with dinner and wine therapy. Great afternoon!  But now I need to head to bed... race tomorrow (so why did I drink two glasses of wine with dinner???).



SENDING YOU SWIFTY RACING VIBES, CHERI.

AND OH HAPPY PLAY DAY.  WOOO HOOOO!

what did you think of HP?

Sorcerers Stone is still my fav, but HBP is a very, very close second. 

what can i say, i have a soft-spot for adolescent wizards.

MAGIC IS COOL.

Happychick - 2009-08-07 7:31 PM Again, I'm on here all by my lonesome.  Aw well, I guess I can just talk to myself...
So self, what do we have planned today?  Well, I believe it is a rest day.  Hmmm, don't we HAVE to do something so we don't have that ugly yellow square on our calendar?  As a matter of fact, yes we do.  What shall we do then to turn it to a more pretty color?  Actually, I'm thinking abs and stretching...something we can never do enough of and we don't seem to do it as much as we should! Alrighty then, let's go....

LOL Michelle... I just saw you are in HI. My daughter is there right now visiting some friends that are stationed there. I didn't have time to ride as planned today. I did an hour of P90X. Boz

Small world, huh Boz?!  Is she staying here on Oahu or will she be visiting other Islands?
While I've heard of P90X, I'm sorry to say I really don't know anything about it...what exactly is it?


Yes she is staying on Oahu (Ewa Beach) until my wife flies back on the 13th to pick her up. My wife is a flight attendant so she takes the kids wherever they want during the summer.

P90X is the greatest yet one of the toughest workouts on the world, if you do it right. A ton of my friends are hooked on it. There isn't anyone who hasn't gotten stronger or lost fat while on it. Check out their website.

I did a short mountain bike ride with my wife. Not sure if I'll have time to do anything else today. She's only in town for the weekend and then back to work so we'll probably take the boat out for some family fun. Maybe if I feel good I'll jump in and do an open water swim, or I may just have a beer or two and call it a day.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

My daughter is 10, son is 15. She's there with some friends we were stationed with in Germany few years ago. They have a daughter the same age. My daughter did her first race this year (there's a few pics in the album) with me. It was a little-big kid-adult team adventure race with canoeing, mountain biking, running. She did awesome, definitely a future triathlete. My teenage son is a champion text-athlete and laptop-thlete... lol.
