Girl Passing on Left - 2008-04-08 4:26 PM Hey guys...will be signing off til next week....may or may not be able to update the runs and swims that I intend to do while away, but will try! I will be bringing a lap top, but really intend this trip to be all about the family and do not want to get caught up in trying to inspire, log and all that stuff! so, it is a good bye from me til Tuesday! be thinking good thoughts for my brother who seems to be doubting himself as to if he can finish this race....he has lost weight since losing his wife and said that he just doesn't have the stamina he did for the Florida race....we consider him an ironman already! but know the medal means a lot to him! If any of you who read this are in the Dallas area, he has had all kinds of new stations and local newspapers contacting him to do a story about this race. OK...gotta go, did get in a ride today! not very long, but a ride! Hope everyone else is getting close to completing 50% of your goals you set for this months challenge...we are almost half way thru the month! make sure to remember to post or let Beth know and she can help you! GO TEAM LAVA!!!! will try and let you know how Mike does! have a great day/week/weekend...and will catch up soon with all of you!
Have a great trip! If you read this, let your brother know our thoughts and positive vibes are gonna be with him during his race! (Do you have a bib # so we can track him??)

The website notes him as bib number 2400.

Hi guys, I am sorry to be so absent lately, it has been a crazy end of last week and the weekend was nuts, and now I am trying to dig myself out of a hole!

I have been working out and logging my mileage. I know I need to get on the bike, but the weather has been awful, I am supposed to do 14 miles tomorrow, but I don't think that is going to happen. I am hoping to pick up at least 5 miles between meetings.

I am going to catch up inspires now. I am so glad to be back!

Welcome back Tammy!  We've missed you!

you are right, it has not been very nice weather for a bike ride

All of the motivation is inspiring me as well! I've had one busy day! my shoulders are tight, my head is pounding, and I'd really just like to go have a glass of wine.............

good thing for my body that I stopped here first, how could I possibly ignore my workouts now??

After your workout that wine will taste even better!

how right you are!

well, I got the run in, but not the swim.............I ran out of time

do I still get to have a blue moon?

aliclimb - 2008-04-08 6:19 PM I lucked out and got my run in with some sunshine this afternoon, but things are looking pretty dismal for Thursday. I'll keep an eye on the forecast and see how many miles I can put in then. In the meantime, I've got to get working on my swim goal, so I guess I better pack for the pool tomorrow. I'm kind of in the same boat as a lot of people with swimming...the hardest part is dragging my butt to the pool. Once I get there, I'll feel a lot better. So wish me luck or a kick in the butt or something because by golly I'm swimming tomorrow!

LOL

I know how much you love to swim too!!!

you will get it done!

Hi Beth...supposedly (and that is a big supposedly cuz it is coming from a weatherman) we have nice weather on tap for thur and fri.  I can't wait.

Did you have trouble leaving philly last friday?  It took forever to get in to Newark from indy for me, and I was travelling with a friend flying into philly, she had trouble getting in also.

I hope he's right about the weather - now I just need to find safe places to run and boy oh boy do I wish I had a bike out here! 

actually for once things went pretty smoothly for me - I was only 30 min late, which is like - on time

I flew in late, don't know if that made a difference or not

The two people I was flying with (one to atlanta, one to Philly) actually had there flights delayed in the early afternoon.  But Continental in true Continental fashion never delayed my flight until it was about 2 hours after it was supposed to departSurprised.  I was the last flight out at 11:30pm.

 The best part was that there were five of us on the plane!   The other four were a pakistani family speaking....not english, we hit terrible turbulence and I thought I am going to crash in this plane and not a single person will understand me when I confess all my sins on the way down!

Hi guys, I've been trying to catch up on household suff so I can play on BT for a while. My daughter's dance competition went well, and I didn't fll asleep driving down there Friday night. I didn't get any workouts in while I was in Saint George, but I did get thrown in the pool in my street clothes. We had a great time, and then the hubby left again Monday morning. Of course, that conflicted with my only available time slot for that days workouts, so...I guess what I'm dying to say is I made it to the gym today!!!! It's too freaking cold outside to run or bike out here. I'm fragile, and I break easily, LOL. Hopefully, the rest of the week will go better so I can get a swim and bike session or two in.

How's everyone else doing on their goals?

Hi Amy!  It's good to hear from you   Great news on the dance competition - go DD!

Awesome about getting to the gym.

As a team we are doing fantastic, everyone is really working hard - I'm about to hit the first patch of bumps in workouts - but it's also why I set my goals where I did

When we flew back from Fiji in January, we had 10 hours of turbulance!  At one point, the flight attendants went running for their seats!  Not fun.  The landing sucked too.  A guy behind us said "that poor pilot had a bad day in the office."  I was sure happy to be on the ground!

Roger that. I knew my hubby would be gone alot this month, but every time I turn around he's announcing another job he has to travel to. I'm glad I lowered my goals. It's gonna take some doin' to get to them where they are now. I feel pretty pitiful for barely being able to hit 12 hours of workouts for the whoe month. I think I'm actually supposed to be training for a tri. Not sure how, but hey, the best  I can do is try. No pun intended

Good job! Don't push yourself if you're sick, though - give yourself a chance to get better!

I got my long bike in for the week today. Dang -- this bike training sure does eat up a lot of time!! and WHAT'S WITH THIS WEATHER?!? D*@#n weathermen - promising me it was gonna get warm today --WELL, IT DIDN'T! Not as warm as they promised me anyway -- lousy rotten liars, all of 'em...

Long swim for me tomorrow, brick on Friday, then a well deserved rest day (during which I will probably spend a large portion of the day spreading mulch -- some rest, huh?)

I'm going to be a bit scarce the next couple of days - super busy time at work and I have a friend in town.  She is here with a couple of other friends of hers and we got together for dinner last night and are going to hook up again tonight

then it's back to Omaha tomorrow - I'll try and check in when I can

Be sure to get out there and train and keep the awesome inspiring going!

Thank goodness for challenges. I forgot my bag yesterday and ended up going to the gym after class, so I didn't get there til about 10. I know I would have blown it off if it hadn't been for this keeping me on track. And you guys are great with all the talking and inspiring.

Yay for great weather today!

Sure is quiet without Julie around here......

I swam today and am at about 50% for my swim goal, I am not doing so good on the bike....0% I love my bike, just having trouble getting out on it.  I hope to attend my first spin class tomorrow night with a friend of mine.  Does that count for bike time?  Do the bikes in class track mileage, or is it just by minutes, anyone know or does it vary by center? 

I am psyched for my first spin class and a little nervous that I won't be able to keep up.  It is an hour class.  My friend says I can stop after 45 minutes...yea right!
