Master  2005  Silverton, Oregon |  Subject: RE: owl_girl's Group --- FULL!MDHillSlug - 2008-03-05 7:50 AM I did my first bike commute of 2008. We had a bunch of rain overnight, but the morning is gorgeous. The roads were a bit wet, but not too bad. Fun! Sounds fun, I'm jealous! Still a little cold for biking outside here |

Elite 3913  far northern CA | Subject: RE: owl_girl's Group --- FULL! I rode into town for my CPR class! Yeah! My back is doing pretty good. It doesn't hurt anymore but it is insanely stiff. Going to Crescent City tomorrow. (BTW.....I'm sure you all want to know a little tidbit of info about the north coast of CA. |

Pro 4343 Olney, MD | Subject: RE: owl_girl's Group --- FULL! I feel like yesterday's commute completely wiped me out, and I'm not sure why; two 44 minute rides 8 hours apart shouldn't have made me so tired. Last night I had no enthusiasm for deciding/planning what I'd do this morning, and this morning's run was poor. Oy! |

I usually notice my runs seem really hard and I have no energy a couple days before coming down with actual symptoms of an illness. I also find that if I start treating it at this first early sign it tends to be less severe and not last as long, Vitamin c, airborn, echinacea, zicam, whatever you do for illness.

Pro 4343 Olney, MD | Subject: RE: owl_girl's Group --- FULL! Other than feeling wiped I feel good. Does that make any sense? I probably should have listened to my body and taken a day off. I didn't because I hate to have extra white boxes on my calendar  I should be cranking up my yoga for cyclists video when I feel this way. Yeah, sounds like a plan! |

Pro 4343 Olney, MD | Subject: RE: owl_girl's Group --- FULL! I usually take one day off each weekend, but sometimes it's Saturday and sometimes it's Sunday. So, sometimes I end up doing 7 or 8 days straight, like right now. Yeah, I should have taken this morning off and done yoga instead. |

I wish I lived near the water again. Saturday is supposed to be my long bike day, but rain will probably have me inside on the rollers/trainer |

Elite 3913 far northern CA | Subject: RE: owl_girl's Group --- FULL! Good morning everyone! How did the weekend treat you? I had a busy Monday so I didn't have a chance to check on any of your weekend adventures. How is the taper going, Shaun? Who else has races coming up within the next couple of weeks? Cheers to a great day! |

Pro 4343 Olney, MD | Subject: RE: owl_girl's Group --- FULL! I was stuck inside for my ride on Saturday (25 miles on the rollers and trainer). Sunday was a planned off day. I had another good swim yesterday and a good run this morning. No races for me until the middle of April. |

Extreme Veteran 483 Pacific NW | Subject: RE: owl_girl's Group --- FULL! Hi everyone. My apologies for being inconsistent on the forum! I seem to be catching every bit of crud that comes through these days and have been struggling with staying current on here. I'm feeling healthy this week, but I ate way too much ice cream while I wasn't working out and am trying to get back on track with my diet. After a few days of hard work I'm back on track weight-wise, but am soooo hungry. Aside from the whole being fat thing, I do enjoy the being fat lifestyle of eating. *sigh* How are you all doing? Who has races coming up soon? How is everyone doing with their goals so far this year? |

Elite 5316 Alturas, California | Subject: RE: owl_girl's Group --- FULL! Me too, I have been sick for at least 30 of the last 45 days. It is totally screwing with my training. My we consists of MTW life sucks, W evening well try to get some kind of run in, Th try for a little more, rest F, try to get a real run in (slow pace) on S at feel like crap on Sunday rince repeat for 7 weeks. I am glad I had like 1-2 days clear for that race 2 weeks ago. Man my whole family has been sick 1-3 kids home sick from school every day for 7 weeks. Everything not so great oh well. My lungs are killing me after a short 4.5 mile jog tonight. Well coughing, and such. I am not sure what to do about tomorrow at this point. Probably not the 8-9 mile run on the schedule, maybe justa got bed after work. |

Elite 3913 far northern CA | Subject: RE: owl_girl's Group --- FULL! Man, I'm tired! This night owl is having a hard time switching to being an early bird! It feels like I'm overtraining but I think it is a scheduling problem. How is everyone else doing this week? |
