Got the long run done before the rain started. The humidity was just wicked. It wasn't pretty, but it's done. Hauled all the patio furniture into the garage and now holed up waiting for whatever Irene has to bring.

I'm at 60% now...  4 days left in the month and 4 more planned runs so I should hit 100%!

I know that we still have a few days until next month but I thought that I would poke my head in anyway and let you guys know I am looking forward to September's challenge. Thanks to Judi and Yanti for keeping an eye on me and getting me back here.

Crushers 1st anniversary is in one month! I think that we need to take on the unmentionables again in October...

Welcome back!!!  What are we doing in September??  And does anyone else wonder how in the world it's already almost September?? 

Can we do a challenge that involves swimming or a swimming option please...? I need to swim and swim and swim! Found a new coach and had a short session with him today. I think he will help me a lot and I am nearly ready to brave a squad session.

 

Yanti wants to swim too. Maybe a swimming option then? :D

That she does. It's going to be a challenge to keep up (and keep increasing) this level of swimming in addition to bike and run for IM training.

WELCOME BACK TO THE CHALLENGES MELISSA CRUSHER

And as I said to you--in my memory September is a traditional swim or swim/run month for challenges ... and gee we just had a run challenge

Seeing as I have no place to swim can we include biking or running in the challenge?? The pool at my gym is closed until october

Drat. The Westies really did eclipse us. DEEDLERS!!! Update! (or readjust for obvious health issues ) I'm going to get a good long walk in with my mom and some more running this week, so I'll probably hit at least 80% so I'm just like a pyrite weight instead of a lead weight for my teammates

In other, far more important, ridiculously exciting news ...

I GOT INTO IRONMAN MELBOURNE !!!!!!!!!!

I don't know what has happened the last week but things got a bit off track with the goal, got 8kms of walking in over this weekend with most of it pushing the pram with my daughter and taking her out for walks (Daddy and daughter are early birds, Mum and son are late sleepers).  Bit of focus though and it should be all good for the next 3 days.

For next month, hoping there will be something with an option for biking.  Just picked up a power meter and will start to play around with it a bit.  Happy with anything though as the next season is just around the corner with Spring kicking off next month so will be getting right into all 3 disciplines

Well I got another run/walk in the log. I mostly walked with the pups last night. I am only about 2.5 hrs from my goal so I will be able to get it all in. It will be a close thing. I have a long bike today and a short run after...here's hopeing I can run after the bike.

Go Westies!!

Sure! We can have a swim challenge. But first, you'll need to build me a pool. Or a lake. But I think a pool might be easier.

I'll even donate a couple of shovels.

I withdrew just now. I finally accept that my back is !@#%'ed up. The muscle relaxants and NSAIDS aren't doing a whole lot of anything.

Congratulations on Melbourne! Yay! Wait, does that mean you'll be visiting Cat?

{{sigh}}  I guess that means I can't use the hurricane as an excuse and I need to get running.  Dreadmill it is for me right now.  Assuming, of course, that the power stays on.  I knew I shouldn't have been such a procrastinator this past week!

Well I figured out that I need to run 2 miles a day for the rest of the month, so that's what I did on the dreadmill.  2 miles.  Directv is out so it was REALLY boring, but at least I have power to run the iTunes from the computer.  And for the dreadmill, of course.  Off to update the spreadsheet and have some lunch!

Drat. The Westies really did eclipse us. DEEDLERS!!! Update! (or readjust for obvious health issues ) I'm going to get a good long walk in with my mom and some more running this week, so I'll probably hit at least 80% so I'm just like a pyrite weight instead of a lead weight for my teammates

Congratulations! I would LOVE to get up to that distance but keep getting nagging injuries trying to go beyond sprint. I think it's because I was more or less sedentary up until 1.5 years ago... Bowling and walking don't really help build a s/b/r base...

Didn't get my run in today  We went to Ikea and spent the whole day shopping for the house.  I finally got my awesome chair I've been wanting which makes me really really happy.  Stocked up on some Swedish food too.  I love going there it's like the closest to Sweden I can get in the states.  Anyway we got home and helped my sister set up her new desk chair then grabbed some food before getting back to the house around 8:30.  I thought about heading out for a run then but it was already pretty dark and I am not a fan of running at night.
