 its going to be a suffer fest on the run.

I want to hit 1:13 overall, 1:12 would be going above and beyond expectations.   


Jeff, sounds like you have an excellent race plan.  Watch your bike pacing and then hit that hurt locker hard!  It has been amazing to me what breaking through that mental barrier can do for your pacing once you get there.

Cheering for Ya, you are gonna run fast enough for us to hear you break the sound barrier up here in Milwaukee!

SSMinnow - 2010-08-25 4:36 AM Tick Tock, Tick Tock.......who's making the countdown to a major race this weekend????  Don't spare any details.  What're you doing? what're your goals?

For the rest of us, assess your season so far.....what is the ONE thing you accomplished and are most proud of???? what's still left on the table? and how're you gonna get 'er done?


No racing this weekend for me.  Last big volume week before my last tri of the season - Patriots HIM.

My goals for this year were:
Sub 6 hr. HIM
Sub 4 hr. marathon
Sub 25m 5K
Swim 200k / Bike 3000m / Run 1000m 
Columbia bike revenge - 17.5 mph min.

So far I haven't accomplished as many as I'd like but:
I hope to get a sub 6 hr. HIM in 2 weeks.  Another fast and flat course and I've trained hard.
Marathon goal will be moved to next year since I'm not doing a marathon this fall.
The highlight of my goals: Sub 25min 5k which I knocked out of the way early at the Smithfield Sprint Tri  - 24:35.
S/B/R numbers - the year is not over so we'll see.
Columbia - close 16.7mph wet road conditions slowed my speed

Overall I am happy w/ my year.  I've gotten stronger on the bike, had a lot of fun and shed a few pounds.  I'm looking forward to a little time off then getting ready for Shamrock Marathon in March.


Good luck to those racing this weekend!

fattyfatfat - 2010-08-25 7:23 PM i love chickenshit littlefucks that blow through stop signs while i'm in the crosswalk then don't stop when i ever so nicely ask them politely in a very kind voice to stop. 

i love it even more when they tell me to fuckoff. 

i love it when they think they can speed off in their fancy little car yet when they get around the corner there is a traffic jam at a stop sign. 

i love it when they realize the situation they are in just got a lot worse when they see that i have turned around and are now heading there way. 

but what i reall really really love is to see littlepricks like this blast around traffic into the oncoming lane and high tale it out of there. 

i guess he must not have wanted to talk to me. 

:-)

edit.  i know i know... i should have just let it go.  i usually do, just this guy told me to F off even after i stopped for him.  and linda, he had a university of texas plate frame.  that means it was ok, right.

grrrrrrrrrr.


Sorry about the bad situation John especially in your new location. I agree about the inappropriatness of it and it seems people are taking their anger out on strangers while they are driving more and more. I see it a lot in MD especially when I travel around DC or B-more.   I also see it out here in the country when I am on my bike or on a run.

Interesting (or not) factoid of the day.
Kyla and I play Words With Friends on the Iphone if anyone else wants to play, my handle is: kcteabag

I was playing today with my sil and she used the word, minny.

I looked it up and minny is homonymous with minnow.


SSMinny!  Good job on your run today!!!

So Steve, we're watching the Art Mann show and he is at a summer soltice parade in Seattle.  Lots of naked people in body paint riding their bikes.  Do you get out there on your tri-bike and do this?

I believe this is the parade

Just popping in to say hello!  This has become a week off from training while I try and make sure this tonsil infection stays away this time.  Feeling fine.  Finishing the meds this weekend.

Looks like lots of great results last week.  Since I am so late to the congrats party, I won't sound them all out but great job to all who tri'ed, crit'ed, swam, and ran...including sons and husbands!  We have a talented group here!

Good luck to everyone racing this weekend, especially our Ironman!

I AM "RACING" THIS WEEKEND!  LOL...doing a local 10k on Sat. for a great cause.  No goals other than to have fun.  Might help my wife pace if she decides she wants to go for a goal time but other than that it will just be a fun run.  Will likely be sore Sunday after barely running at all this month.

We are almost at the end of week 1 with out the kids.  The house is quiet at night but we have been able to get a lot done.  My guess is we will really start missing them this weekend and next weekend won't come soon enough!  Although after two weeks with the grandparents they are going to be spoiled rotten!!

Everyone race hard and train hard!!

Tony, I agree totally.

But I also wonder if IMOO really is already a double IM for "Minny" based on the length of her gait?  Laughing  
I just keep going back to the short jokes.....I know.... get some new material!
