Cool.  I know when I did it on the bike I had a hard time trying to determine what to hold for a pace such that your going all out but able to hold it the full duration but I am thinking I can judge it better on the run.  I am hoping so anyways.

trying1 - 2009-12-30 6:31 PM Wow I had a hard swim workout.  My gym's pool for some reason was over 90F.  Swimming 400's felt like I was swimming 1200's.  My workout was only 45 min but it felt like it was over an hr.  I felt exhausted, I couldn't swim another lap..  Though the exhaustion may be due to all the beer and fried chicken I ate for dinner last night.  Kelly I'm not sure if you've ever been to Blue Ribbon Bakery, the fried chicken is great (and so is the bread).

Nicole83 - 2009-12-31 5:36 AM Here's a question, I've noticed recently that my left toes and the outside of my left foot are going painfully numb when I ride.  I'm wondering if anyone else has had this happen, and any suggestions on what might be causing it?  My cycling shoes are eons old, but I've never had this happen before.  It's uncomfortable, and I would be concerned if it happened while training/racing if I were doing a brick, as I can't feel my left foot when I get off the trainer.

Thoughts?

Nicole83 - 2009-12-31 7:36 AM The thought of fried chicken and beer just literally made my mouth water... at 830 in the morning.

golfpro - 2010-01-01 7:16 AM IRONMAN all day today on Universal Sports . com. It looks like I will not be able to get it- comcast does not carry it in my area

bzgl40 - 2009-12-31 1:41 PM Ok, no end to the rain in sight and I decided I still wanted to test today so off to the treadmill I went.  I figure outside is inconsistant at best so I'll just head back to the treadmill when I need to test again.  I ended up with 179 as my average for the 20 minute test so these are my HR Zones for the Run

HR/Pace label	Range data label	Cumulative Time in zone
1 - Recovery	118 - 152
2 - Extensive Endurance	153 - 162
3 - Intensive Endurance	163 - 171
4 - Sub-Threshold	172 - 178
5a - SuperThreshold	179 - 183
5b - Anaerobic Endurance	184 - 188
5c - Power	190 - 198

I find that over the last month or so I am getting faster on the run which is pretty cool.  I never thought I could substain a sub 9 min mile and now I find I can (although I usually go at around 9:15-9:30).  Course my distance needs to increase but I am pretty stoked about that.  I attribute it to two things, figuring out negative splits and losing a bit of weight.  Oh, and consistancy of course...but that's boring

roadrhino - 2010-01-01 12:52 AM Happy New Yeal, all! I'm just in from a 2 mile jaunt through the neighborhood. What a way to break in a new pair of shoes. It's going to be a great relationship. On the run I set a goal of at least 500 miles of running in 2010. Here's how 2009 ended up for me:

2009 totals
Bike:	78h 06m 32s  - 1043.56 Mi
Run:	78h 42m 02s  - 385.95 Mi
Swim:	33h 10m 46s  - 97777.08 Yd

Yeah, same boat.  Directtv doesn't carry it either so no watching it for me either.
