Run schedule this week is Tue/Wed/Thur Sat & Sun so that will work out hopefully.  I tweaked my knee playing football with my son and his friends yesterday but it felt good on the ride so hopefully it is nothing big.

Guess I need to remember I am 43 and not 13!



Are you doing one of Hal's running plans? I intend to start his intermediate HM plan in a few weeks to get ready for the Carlsbad Half. It will be my first race longer than 6.5 miles and by week 4 I'll have my longest run ever on the books (7 miles). For now I'm base building and my secondary goal for the month is to get a 7 miler on the books for the team.

another hal pal? suweeeeeeeeet! we now have the hals gals and hal pals!



I'm looking forward to getting started! Looking at the plan, the first week has 15 miles on it, so I'm REALLY glad I found this challenge to keep me running this month to get my base near that level. Being accountable to all you Ghoulies has it's perks. All those 400-repeats will be interesting... I think I may mix in some Yasso 800s to keep it interesting if I'm feeling good.

jaxbamf73 - 2009-10-10 8:06 PM Did some shopping today: new shoes, running running shorts and shirts...new stuff always makes you feel faster.


new stuff DOES make you feel faster!

im thinkin' my brandy new fuel belt did it for me yesturday. 

i dont like to shop.  i know, gasp.

but.....

shopping for running schwag, THATS the BEST!

was there a special occassion for your spree?

then im thinking.  does there need to be when it comes to running/tri gear. 

stacieb


Needed the new shoes and never really bought "running shorts."  I've always running in either tri shorts or basketball style gym shorts.  I must say the difference in gym and running  shorts was an eye-opener.


x2 on that... One of my first runs this past spring was a local 8k that I ran with a few friends. When I showed up in basketball shorts, my friend (who's an experienced runner) mentioned I'd probably enjoy running more in shorts designed for that activity. I didn't think much of it until I experienced some, ahem, chaffage after the run. The next day I got my first real running shorts and haven't worn the basketball shorts out running since.


Yes, and running shorts are, ahem, much more liberating!

no really? please do tell us more!??!??

No realllly~



Well with tri shorts, your goodies are all jammed up tween some lycra and a chamois.  With gym shorts, you have to wear some sort of brief (I prefer dri-fit material boxer-briefs).    Running shorts have a built in liner that negates the need for said briefs.  For cooler days I did find a pair of Asics that had a compresion-style boxer brief.  I hope I made that sound as clinical as possible to deprive you of any possible enjoyment you may have derived for such a description

yes very clinical indeed! in otherwords no crammed unit in the shorts! more room, and less lycra and chamois...makes for a happy unit! sounds reasonable! sooo why do I see all those lycra shorts in Ironman and Olympic tris?! did they not get that memo about comfort in racing!????

My typical running wear is a pair of gym shorts (longer length that the 70s style) with compression shorts underneath.  Running shorts are too short for my comfort and the show my tan line off.  I have 3 pair that never get worn.

Winter time I keep compression shorts and just add tights depending on temperature.

This past winter I made a special trip to EMS for some fleece re-inforced in important areas because I thought I was going to have frostbite and it was not good!



all this talk about mens running/tri-wear and they're goodies.  (did some actually call what you got goodies?  LOL)

made me think of Faris Al-Sultan at the World Championships. 

first off. total retro running guy.

his entire body is shaved, but he has the scragliest beard.   crazy.

 then he does the entire Ironman in a SPEEDO.   and what up w the buff on his head?

he doesnt use cages on his bike, he just stuffs his water bottle in the back of his SPEEDO.

i kept thinking there's the BORAT of KONA.


did anyone catch the point in the coverage where hes going through a water station, he tugs on the waistband and dumps the entire cup of water into the crotch of his SPEEDOS.

i said to myself like a zallions times.  did he just do what i think he just did??

i listened to the commentary later about how that practice is very common, that it wards off heastroke so of course, w the conditions of the day his tactic totally makes sense

but still....it made my eyes bug out....well that, and.....his SPEEDO.

stacieb

wow...I didnt see any of it...but makes me want to! haha....sounds like a comedy movie in its making!!! and I got a visual on most of it....that was not tooooo pretty! haha thanks for the giggles...but not the visuals!

Stacie - I also got a kick of watching Faris during Kona. I missed the aid-station cool-down session, but I agree with the commentators about how keeping the, ahem, area helps cool the body. On the flip side, when we were playing football in late October and November in Minnesota back in the day, the coaches always told us to keep our hands warm by putting them down the pants. It's the warmest part of the body and it's much better than putting on cold and icy mittens. As for Faris, if it weren't for that beard, it would be pretty easy to think he was a woman from a distance with that speedo and tiny little tank top he wears. When I saw last year's highlight show the first time, I remember thinking "wow, what a buff chick!"

Jules - I was thinking sometime next week for that 7 miler. I'll let you know!

Stacie,

Hope the son gets better fast and no one else gets it!

Aren't your children off for Columbus Day anyways?



thanks, BILL. you'd think they would have off today, but they have FRIDAY off instead.

i dunno.

im thinking ill take them to see WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE.

stacieb

you bringing the kids to visit me??? haha cant get much wilder then here!!!

I love that book...that is one I used to read to my daughter all the time....so, let us know how it is!!! we want a full report when you return!



i just squealed out loud to the total embarassment of my older son when i saw the previews for the movie version at the 12 midnight showing of Half Blood Prince.

ive been super silly excited. if the boys didnt have school off on Friday, id go myself. 

i love the book as a kid.  and i loved reading it over and over again to my boys when they were little.  every once in awhile we pull it off the shelf to read just for kicks.

the previews make it look good.  ill let you know, for sure.

TOM.   dump water on them off to ward off heatstroke.

a good place to put your hands when its cold out.

MAN oh MAN those goodies sure come in handy, dont they? 



i was rooting for Faris the whole time, hes my kinda of athlete.  i love the ones that throw convention to the wind, and just do thing their way.

im not sure i would mistake him for woman though. he is so tall and gangly.  unless of course 'she' was from Eastern block nation.  LOL.

course i see what your saying when it comes to the tiny bottoms and cropped top.

hes sure NOT your typical wispy triathlete, thats for sure. 

a top 10 finish.  doesnt seem to matter where he stuffs his water bottle.

"popsicle to the pole freeze..."

That lends itself to so many puns that I'm actually speechless Fear not though, it never resulted in any kind of freezer burn.

iowagander - 2009-10-12 12:23 PM Stacie - I also got a kick of watching Faris during Kona. I missed the aid-station cool-down session, but I agree with the commentators about how keeping the, ahem, area helps cool the body. On the flip side, when we were playing football in late October and November in Minnesota back in the day, the coaches always told us to keep our hands warm by putting them down the pants. It's the warmest part of the body and it's much better than putting on cold and icy mittens. As for Faris, if it weren't for that beard, it would be pretty easy to think he was a woman from a distance with that speedo and tiny little tank top he wears. When I saw last year's highlight show the first time, I remember thinking "wow, what a buff chick!"

Jules - I was thinking sometime next week for that 7 miler. I'll let you know!


TOM.   dump water on them off to ward off heatstroke.

a good place to put your hands when its cold out.

MAN oh MAN those goodies sure come in handy, dont they? 



i was rooting for Faris the whole time, hes my kinda of athlete.  i love the ones that throw convention to the wind, and just do thing their way.

im not sure i would mistake him for woman though. he is so tall and gangly.  unless of course 'she' was from Eastern block nation.  LOL.

course i see what your saying when it comes to the tiny bottoms and cropped top.

hes sure NOT your typical wispy triathlete, thats for sure. 

a top 10 finish.  doesnt seem to matter where he stuffs his water bottle.

dang....hope your hands never froze to the jewels...kinda like the popsicle to the pole freeze!??!

as for the run...just let me know...I have a few long runs planned for this week...and would love the company!



"popsicle to the pole freeze..."

That lends itself to so many puns that I'm actually speechless Fear not though, it never resulted in any kind of freezer burn.

As for the runs, if the legs hold up this week, I'll try to join you! What days are your long runs?

speechless...eh? that happen often???

good to know that the goods are not freezer burned...I always return those types of goods!
