Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() dalessit - 2012-04-12 7:37 PM Tracy, I passed PMP today, was the hardest certification test I have taken. I had no idea if I passed until it showed on the screen. In celebration I am now eating a hamburger, fries and drinking wine (threw away the cork so that means we have to drink it all).
That's awesome Tony!!! I know that test doesn't tell you if you pass or fail until you hit submit and those are the longest 4-5 seconds of your life. Way to go. A LOT of people don't pass it the first time so that's super cool! |

I still need to: vacuum, dust, clean a few bathrooms, stretch, finish the laundry, finish the list for the 'babysitter family', finalize my Dad's caregiver, change my car pickup time (the flight changed - today), pay the bills, stretch, empty all the trash, cans to the curb, find Jeff's passport, lock up all the alcohol, stretch, docusign my name AND Jeff's for escrow, replace Zach's track spikes, get off teh computer, explain to Zach, and his gf's family why Zach can't date while I'm gone, PACK............... Oh, and watch the SHARKS play round 1, game 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs...... Linda, you need to have an awesome race so no funny business. I am living Boston this year through you. (that minute is killing me about now) Ironmen- Changed my nutrition this go around and am looking for a good "snack" on the bike. I have the majority of the calories figured out but am looking for a little something extra. What did you use? ********WARNING, these are odd*********** I had apple slices, beef jerkey and peanut butter crackers. The apples worked great for training but might re-think on race day if/when I go iron again. The jerkey was great. Nice and salty and I took a little bite after every gel shot to cut the sweetness of the gel. Crackers worked well to settle the tummy. Something else that sounded good on race day but never thought of it before was a simple piece of gum. There were times I would have loved the distraction of being able to blow a bubble. Silly right? And I saw lots of people with salt and vinegar chips at the SN bag section. |

And I saw lots of people with salt and vinegar chips at the SN bag section. I'm going to start calling Tracy, IronGut! Chet, I didn't have any treats on the bike. It was me, Sustained Energy/Gel liquid concentrate, H20 and Salt Caps. If I want to really run off the bike, I can't have a lot crap in my stomach. Even on the run, the only thing I had was CarboPro up until the last 10Kish and then I switched to flat Coke from the course. Different strokes though. I've seen people eating all sorts of junk! |

"BIG PMP'in, Spendin G's!!!" -- what Jay Z really meant. Congrats Tony - sounds like the cert will be of value in the contracts you're pursuing. Just for fun, you should respond to all of John's RFPs - even if it doesn't remotely apply to your line of business.

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Chet... I tried honey stinger waffles, lots of people love em. A bit too sweet for me. I sometimes use pb/nutella sandos on long rides, but not during race. I really really craved salty stuff by the end of the races. I swear, ironman turned me into a Fritos addict, ha ha!! One thing that helped me the 2nd time around was training a bit w the im perform or whatever. I used infinit on the bike but then switched to the im stuff later and the break/change was super refreshing. Another big beach day planned (at Big Beach, ha!!) with my girlfriends and fams. Will get to do some ows, yay! A bit sore from boogie boarding with my kiddos yesterday -- new muscles used!!! My poor little pale kiddos had to lay low a bit yesterday recovering from our huge Wednesday! Party on!!

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() David, sorry I didn't comment earlier but I couldn't see your photos with my IE browser. Chrome saved the day. Those are great pictures and super cograts on the fitness! My favorite is that your body positioning is almost exactly the same in both shots. |
