The only time I had panic set in was at the Door County tri last year. I didn't have a wetsuit on, first mistake. Then as I entered the course I was hit repeatedly by big rolling waves. I literally was gasping for air as I got pummeled by the waves.

Had I had my wetsuit on I would have been fine. You CAN NOT sink in a wetsuit. It will flip you on your back. It is like wearing a big life preserver.

It also gives you bouyance which puts you in perfect horizontal body position to swim through the water. I liken it to being like a seal. I am working on getting better horizontal body position in the water this winter and my catch. I tend to swim with straight arms and feet and legs dragging. Embarassed At least that is what the video tape showed on Tuesday. I have a lot to work on!

Hmmm. I guess I better get one

Proud of you Tammy.  Something I could never do.  You ran 26 miles at a pace faster than I run 5 miles.  Awesome.

Sorry I've been MIA too.  My boys are sick, and all they want me to do is sit on the couch so they can sleep on me.  If I even attempt to get up, all hell breaks loose.  I'm hoping we're on the back-end of this round of illness.  It really puts a crimp in my schedule.

Is it insubordination to ask the next person that meets our glorious, supergirl leader to kick her *ss?!Wink

What an awsome run! She takes 10 minutes off her previous time and moans because she was a lot less crampy than the other athletes! (You're funny Tammy - well done!)

26 miles -3'57" -  bl**dy hell - it'd take me 30mins longer than that (and I'd need carried home!)and that's only in theory - furthest I've ever managed is 5 miles!!!!Embarassed

I'm originally from Hamilton, just south east of Glasgow and I think the phrase I'd be using is "to feel like SH1TE!"Laughing

But what a hard course - round and round - you'll probably have motion sickness until Wednesday - and I think you're right about the lack of gradient - really tough on a body, when it's trained for "real life". (Not to mention the fact that it was running for 26 miles - yuch!Wink)

So what kind of mega-training session have you planned for tomorrow?!Wink

I keep meaning to ask - West Bend - I google mapped it - what is it the west bend of?!

Weekend training went right out the window. I'm going to be out of town next week for business so some minor home issues had to go right to the top of my list. We'll see how dedicated I am to losing weight next week when I'm in my favorite area for eating and not exercising.

I am all for the arrival of Spring and warmer weather and more of the outdoors. Although I did get to go snowboarding today for a bit. Just at the local mountain though and let me tell you....T-bars are NOT fun on a snowboard. I think I spent more time getting dragged up on my arse then riding down the hill Next week hopefully we'll make it to whiteface.

Same way as the run- just do a warm up then a 30-40 min TT on the bike.  YOu will have different reading when youare actually outside then when youare on the trainer.  I cant get my HR as high inside

Official weigh in this morning. Down another pound that's three overall and two since I really started It's not as high as I would have liked but I haven't kept completely to the schedule so I'll take what I can get.

It's going to be a very busy summer as I try to squeeze in all my goals for the year. I'm going to have to take a hard look at when I can get every thing scheduled and try and sneak extra training time in where ever I can.
