No swim today. Massage and rest and a nap. Mondo swim tomorrow however.  Start my new part time job. Euch.  5.45am-10am.  I know. Shouldn't complain. I have something. Right?

5:45??!!  That's way too early.  I think I'd have to take coffee by IV to make my brain function.

 

It is too early but at least I won't have to fight off traffic and I have the entire rest of the day to myself.  Plus it's 4 hours.  Which is pants. Ok. I am not complaining.

BbMoozer - 2009-05-05 2:58 PM Kaqphin --- what on Earth is a shoulder NIGGLE?!?!?

I will get into the pool tomorrow.

What a great group of chicks here! We'll rock this challenge!

Ya gotta love the crazy aussie slang.  I do believe that means "shoulder trouble". 


Another Aussie here. I thought "niggle" was universal....who knew? I know when I type something I check myself in case a word I use is just "Aussie". It's amazing how much slang we pick up from you guys from the US tho'.
Oh yeah, it's just  a "little nagging trouble" sorta.

GOOD MORNING GIRLS.

long swim on tap today.  58 mins or so the plan says.

not sure what im actually gonna do in the pool.  sometimes id rather just swim than do drills, but then 58 mins of continuous is a looooong swim.    we shall see.

then i have some biking mins to 'make up', the difference between my bike totals this week minus the 3 hr GROUP RIDE EXTRVAGANZA im doing on Saturday.  YAHOOO.

rains gonna complicate things today - so my 41 min ride just might be inside on the drainer.  and i SWORE i wouldnt put my bike in there again this season.

rain rain go away.

headin' to the bike shop tomorrow to tweak the adjustments on my new bike - just a tad - that way ill be in tip top shape for the ride on Saturday.

HAPPY TRNG EVERYONE!

I like learning foreign slang, so don't ditch it for us ignorant Americans. I thought it was pretty easy to get the gist of "niggle".

How universal is "tweak" as in "I stumbled and tweaked my knee"? I used that a little while back and my partner needed an explanation.

Hi Ladies!  Sounds like everyone is doing great.  A few minor setbacks, but nothing that will keep us from kicking boy butt.  (But not too hard, because we don't want to be looking at assatars that are all beaten and bruised.  Well, not too bruised, anyway....)

Keep swimming!

Hi,

We are a bit ahead of the boys right now, 10% vs 7%, but only about half of us have logged any swimming at all. If you are swimming, then please make sure it gets logged on the spreadsheet. If it isn't logged it's as if it never happened.

Thanks, Nicole

Got my first swim in today. I had a 500y TT surrounded with an additional 1.5K. The TT sucked Actually, the whole swim did today. I am feeling a bit off. Oh well, it counts for the challenge!
