Extreme Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Fast and short tonight. I could have went further but didn't eat right (enough) and pooped out at end. About 1:30 off my long run pace. Still 12:47 but greased lightning for me. The work is starting to pay off. |

Any chance you would like some house guests for a month or two??? In case you didn't believe google. This is the view I see on my runs: Now you're just being cruel! |

Regular ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Weeeeee, legs weren't quite up for running but I did hit the bike tonight for a while (until the baby started to cry). I was SO FAST (for me). I couldn't believe it. It's like I've been doing this training and it's starting to work. Who would have thunk? I may even trying biking tomorrow if I can get the kids down at a reasonable time. MyFitnessPal people - who are you on there? I got myself on and am loving it. Just recording those calories is going a long way to helping me drop a few pounds. I only know one person on there though so it's a bit lonely. Edited by Wiff 2013-01-08 10:49 PM |

Heck ya, good stuff. Has your wife picked a Tri yet? Personally, I'd pick Napa but it would be great if she did the one in Olds! |

To be honest, I thought about bailing from the yoga session when I realized that not only was I the only male in the room but I was the youngest by a good 20 years. Nothing like a room full of cougers to get you motivated. Run tonight. Gonna crush the 30/31. I call BS!! If we go by the 20 year spread...welll ladies over 65 are not considered cougars anymore! ![]() |

Be warned though, photos can be max 100k, I had to shrink mine down in paint. Thanx Justin, I always wondered how to do this. |

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() justinfss - 2013-01-08 3:52 PM Another Double day, Two short workouts, and My run just barely qualify's for the 30 in Jan I think. But... I have a confession to make folks, I'm a Lefty.... That's right, I only... Only breath to the left while I am swimming. Today I tried to do a bunch of right breathing, and boy it felt weird. I nearly drowned! Is it just going to be a case of practice makes perfect or does anyone have any tips on becoming a better both sided breather??? Once you go Left, you'll never want to go back. At least that's what I've experienced. I started out with that Bi-lateral nonesense, listening to all the importance of needed to be diverse, but when it came down to it, I'm comfortable breathing on my left every 4th stroke. I've spent weeks breathing on the 3rd stroke, alternating, and I found for me, breathing on the left was just way more comfortable. |

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I'd say sorry for the 50 posts, but I'm not. Jeesh people, I go to work and come back and you all have 3 full pages of threads posted. way to go on the workouts. Bold prediction here. The blackhawks will win 2x as many games as the leafs will lose this season. Yes the Redskins loss was tough, but tougher still is the realization that our QB is wreckless, and a great tallent all in 1. Got in a 8.2 miler today. 4.6 mile recovery run tomorrow. Running on ice is no fun, but it beats the dreadmill. Happy training all. I get my 10th w/o out of 31 tomorrow. Hockey game tomorrow night. |

Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Hey all,Sorry I've been out of pocket this week. Out in SF at the JP Morgan healthcare conference (3 days, 33 meetings... Ugh).

Have run twice already, will go again tomorrow at lunch (went early last two days). Turns out, San Francisco is hilly... ![]() ![]() |

There are a few back here in MA but none really close to us. Razmataz was my all time favorite. Once you have eaten healthy then be sure to undo it by trying garlic fries... So good. Enjoy! |

Won't be too much longer until you are finding that same speed in your running! |

Regular ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() In case you didn't believe google. This is the view I see on my runs: Yes, but can you really enjoy the view when you have to watch out for alligators? No way I could ever take my eyes off the trail. I look like a limping wildebeest and would get dragged into the water and eaten. |

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Cassady - 2013-01-08 6:03 PM Great job everyone. See we have some serious people here trying to get 30 in 30. I'm on the way to the pool to get my 10th workout in. Weight is coming off so the bere is not going down. Thought I would have had 3 beers that I set out for New Years but I skipped them. Now I'm afraid of putting in the calories since I see positive changes in the scale. For those of you who have trouble losing weight try my fitnesspal.com. I can't beleive just keeping a daily really helps but it does. I have been stuck for quite a while around 300lbs, thinking I was only putting in so many calories. Now I log it each day and am finding successs.
Love your Mark Twain quote. ... fear is the only thing that holds me back! |

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Great way to make indoor biking(that sounds funny when I say it in my head) bearable. Kind of in line with David's football workout, today I pumped it up when the commercials came on...higher resistance, higher intensity...... it makes me hate the commercials even more!!! The only saving grace was all the grainy KHL (pro Russian Hockey League) highlights..and the fact that we wont have to watch them anymore! |
