MDHillSlug - 2008-04-15 6:16 PM I have a triathlon coming up on Sunday. I did my last swim before it this morning. I'm still getting used to the wetsuit but I'm amazed by the extra speed it gives me!

what kind do you have Nicole? I need to buy one and fast! I need one for the first weekend in May! suggestions????? thanks



Hey Julie... do you still have any interest in my QR suit (no pressure....). If you're not sure about it, I would be willing to "sell" it to you, ship it to you and let you try it out, and if it doesn't work out, you can send it back to me and I'll refund you what you paid me. But if you'd rather get a new suit, I TOTALLY understand! Whatever works for you!

I posted a price of $100 OBO in the classified section, but I'm willing to let it go for $80 shipped...

Was just updating the spreadsheet...and noticed that we all need to get our groove on! some of us are way ahead...but many of us are not! (me included!!!!!) so come on team....time to get busy! here are the standings...we should all be at 57% as of today:

abud73 - 75.55% kicking butt and her sexy legs are probably showing all the progress!

notarunnr 65.8% ya tammy! you go girl!

MDHillSlug 65.13% you never stop Nicole! you are our energizer bunny! kiu!!!!

jsnowash 61.79% Way to go Jen....you are kicking booty! kiu...

lastcall 57.95% Way to be right on your goal schedule Beth and w/all your travels! you ROCK GIRL!!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOT AT GOAL: NEED TO GET A MOVE ON!!!!

Girl Passing On Left 52.70% you are getting passed on the left and right...time to get going!

Reno8 51.94% if your darn computer worked and you did not have to go to the library sooo much I am sure you would be on your goals...but time to get busy Steve.

owl_girl 49.65% know you are in Alaska...lots of great running and biking places there...I know cuz I lived there! hope you are running, biking, and even get in some laps while you are there! have fun at your wedding too!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TIME TO GET REALLY REALLY BUSY! Your team is counting on you to reach those goals: let us know what it is that inspires you...so we can help by sending messages! do not wait til the last day and try and cram it all in! go run bike and swim...even if it means indoors!

naners 41.18% - Yeah Sparticus.... I know it is hard for you to pull yourself away from those beautiful beaches...I see you are working out like a wild lady...but time to pump them up to reach those goals that you set out for yourself.

givemashot 38.33% I see the hubby is home...and as much as I am sure that you want to spend as much time as possible with him...time to hit the trails or treadmill, bike or spin...and swim like a fishy! we need you now! go get em Amy!!!

aliclimb 36.33% I know you have been ill, so you wait til you feel better....but then go be our ironwoman and run lots, bike lots and swim even more!  feel better first! your health is far more important!

kpb421 23.09% this is where you should be at the first week...time to step it up! I see you are doing workouts...but maybe try to lengthen them just a bit! we can use every mile you add! kiu! I know that you are doing your best, but we need you to reach your goals if we are going to win this challenge.....go get em Katie tiger!!!

I am only going by what is posted...hope that this will motivate you to go a little harder....i will be posting these twice a week for the remainder of this challenge....keeps us all honest and lets us know who needs to be inspired! do not over look the ones who are at the top of the list...but please start at the bottom....we all can use a gentle nudge or a kick in the behind like I need....GO TEAM LAVA!!!! lets win this thing!

 

I RAN and swam today! I promise to get to my goals - barring any injuries or sickness....I do go in to the hospital tomorrow to have a lump removed. I will keep you posted!

Sounds like some folk are having weather problems this week. Me too. Last week, it looked like the first picture. Not so much anymore . It's cloudy, rainy, and voggy. Still beautiful, but not very conducive to training!

wow life's a beach! eh??? love it there! we were in Maui last September...and ready to go back! the DH and I talked about going back...like real soon! love it there! can you say JEALOUS BOYS AND GIRLS!?!?!

It kind of is...no complaints from me .  Then again, San Francisco is beautiful too!  Everyone should come to Hawaii, though.  The headline in today's newspaper said something about number of tourists is down by 14%.  So, everyone, come to Hawaii!!

it probably has to do with the fact that two of the few major airlines that travel to you went under (ATA and ALOHA)...and also gas prices....but, if I will be coming your way probably in the fall or maybe christmas time....hope to see you then.

Hi everyone....thank you all for all the kind inspires...It was a very VERY emotional week for us....and since many of you were there with me in spirit, wanted to share a few photos with you from the IMAZ:

MIKE GRIFFIN #2400 IS AN IRONMAN!!!!

Mike and his daughter

Swim Start

Mike heading out on his bike

Mike heading out for second loop...his daughter in white shorts and me in the bermuda shorts.

Mikes cheerleading squad...minus my daughter! we cheered for everyone...not just Mike!

Signs we made in the JANUS tent

Myself, my daughter, and my brothers daughter

two best looking Ironman cheerleaders out there! my baby and my niece!

My older sister at the finishing shoot in the VIP tent. What an amazing experience! I am so inspired by the many incredible athletes that I met!!! each and everyone of them are my heroes! I can not imagine doing such an event! just to sign up scares the bejeebies out of me!

I am going tomorrow to go and pre-swim (they are allowing 40 swimmers spots and I got in) then meet some other BT ers who will be biking and running with me....I am sure that I will be behind them as most are guys! hope I do not slow them down! but such is life! Have a great weekend everyone! hope that you are all out exercising...and getting closer to those goals! time is running out....

Do not hate me for the chart I put out earlier with who is where in this months challenge...but I know that when I was on an earlier challenge that I was in the lower brackets and when the captain posted the chart with me at the bottom, it fired me up to get caught up...hope it will do the same for you! Have a great weekend....and thanks again to all of you who made it a point to stop by and inspire my brother on! you will never be forgotten! I loved all your messages! thank you ~ thank you ~ thank you~!~
