sdalessio - 2010-08-06 1:13 PM Afternoon update - I was feeling down this morning so I gathered up the kids and headed off to a strength and conditioning class w/ the kids that is a pretty tough workout but w/ a fun bunch of ladies.  It's great b/c the class is at a park so the kids can play and we can workout.  I used to go all the time but had to stop b/c of other training.  I decided to sub this workout for my hour bike today.  I'll get to the pool this afternoon.  But we had fun and it got a smile back on my face.  :-)

I hope everyone has a great weekend of training, racing or family fun!!!!



That is great.  Sometimes we need to interject the fun back into training.  I did something similar this week.  I blew off whatever the schedule said and went for a group ride with "my boys."  I had so much fun chasing them around that I forgot how much I was working.  If it isn't fun then why are we doing it?

Like today, I think I might blow off my swim and go get a pedicure.  After all the running I've been doing my toes are getting fugly.  And I run faster with pretty feet Kiss  I believe John has the same motto.



That's my kinda run workout!! I remember last summer in Arizona, my sis-in-law was giving me a pedi (bless her heart) but I was adamant about keeping all of my calluses. There's nothing worse than going through all of the blisters all over again!

I think some other MG'ers have been getting pedis lately. Hey John, whacha up to???

DougRob - 2010-08-06 1:26 PM So I have had something going on with my right ear for a while now. I hoped my body would knock it out on its own, but I finally went to the Doc this AM since it has not been getting better and seems to be worsening. Also, I decided to be be careful about things like this after reading about BiggyFuzzyDoug's cancer diagnosis in Cup O' Joe.

Well, I have some kind of infection. I get my drops tonight and some Claratin, and hopefully that will clear things up. My jaw aches and the Doc said that is from liquid draining down my eustacion  (sic) tube.

I have been feeling run down lately, and maybe it has something to do with my body using resources to fight the infection.

I know this is not interesting perse or sexy, but  I just wanted to share.



Take care of yourself.  This is the first year I haven't gotten a sinus infection from Jordan lake (knock wood).  As a rule of thumb I use a saline spray in my nose and ears after EVERY swim, be in open water or pool, just to keep things clean.  Hope you get rid of not creepy crawly soon.

jvanis - 2010-08-06 10:00 AM One pic from my race this weekend, can you tell my seat looks a bit off at nearly 7 degrees negative, funny I was comfortable and never noticed having to reposition or sliding.

My knee is actually not hitting my elbow, it just looks like it from this angle. Wish the lighting would have been a bit better.


Awesome pic Jeff. I actually thought your avatar was a TT guy not you!

I think the blue is from the Toilet cleaning fluid. I wonder if she is saying thanks that she doesn't have to see your feet anymore! Wink

P.S. I am typigraphically challanged!

sdalessio - 2010-08-06 8:03 AM Hi gang,

I feel like I have committed the cardinal training sin.  I rolled over this morning and went back to sleep instead of getting up for a workout that may now be hard to fit into the day.  Last week was such a great training week and this week has sucked.  I've been tired, no time to fit in all of my workouts and my muscles just feel drained of all firing power.  It is very frustrating.  Cry  Sorry - rant is over.



Recovery is just as important as workouts, sounds like you made the right choice.

When I was a kid, the favorite solution was 50/50 alcohol/vinegar. These days, I can tell when I have water lodged in my ear(s) and then will use drops to get it out. When I was a kid, I wasn't always good about drops regularly, but could tell when I was about to get swimmer's ear and then would be diligent and could often stave it off. Doug's sounds a bit more serious, though?

Doug, hope it heals up quickly. Keep us posted on how you are feeling. The jaw ache part sounds particularly sucky.

Did a good stretch, and a really slow warmup yesterday before hitting the trails. I ran with my wife again, which is working out well. We ended up doing 2.5 miles in 32 minutes and there is a ton of steep hills. This is pretty amazing as I didnt hurt at all and almost ran the entire thing.

Good to hear, dont forget a little stretching after the run as well and you will be on the right track to moving forward hopefully injury free.

Actually, she is coming with you to Atlanta. You don't realize it, but that conversation you had with her was her adoption proceedings. She's yours!

Trevor, I can hear fine through the ear. Doc asked the same question along with questions about fever and headaches. (no to all).

I come back from a lunch meeting and take a quick break to catch on the MG for the day and find pictures of John's Feet in what looks like toilet water?  REALLY, man I just ate!  And I keep looking for the little ty-d-bol man "captain in the boat" from the old commercials!  Laughing  (Now I am showing my age!)

??


I also wanted to offer fair warning for all the power junkies out there in MG land.  I hooked up the "new to me" Powertap on the bike last night so be ready for all sorts of off-the-wall questions on power training.  (once I get done with all this running training) 

Good luck to all the Racers this weekend.  Represent!
