tripletmom01 mentor group - FULL!!!!! (Page 31)

Hope you've all had a lovely weekend (I've not - been doing my crappy Diploma and trying to help a sick wife with the ankle biters - hay-ho get a rest at work tomorrow!)

Wish me luck anyway - I've just written a list of events I'd (ideal world) like to enter - my dearly beloved asked me what I was going to be doing after the Wee Tri in March - I'm aiming high so when some get scrubbed, it won't matter...!  (not sure how she puts up with me!)

I'll let you know how it goes...

Lets see the list!!!

OK, Taminator, why do I feel like someone has beaten me with a baseball bat today?

My z1-2 run went OK, I just took it easy like the plan said.  Hip flexors are oweeee, maybe from the standing intervals on the bike?

Hope everyone had a great weekend!!!!

We doubled our take from last year at the Garden Fair Expo!

Yeee HAWW!

I am buying a new pair of running shoes on my lunch hour tomorrow, ordering a  new bike seat AND getting my hair highlighted. It was just that good! Thank you Madison for buying lots and lots of soap, candles and body care products!!!

JR, I hear you.  My butt was sufficiently kicked this past week. 

Very interesting workout tomorrow with bike/run/bike/run/bike/run/bike brick.  Not sure why but I try to do what I'm told. 

you are doing awesome training -thats why!!

cool pix... wish I could come

Ok, here's my list:

16th May: Loch Leven Half Marathon (from the town where my folks live - not sure I'll be able to increase my running distance in time)

30th May: 10 Under the Ben - 10 hour mountain bike marathon - as a pair team

June - the local annual OWS

26th July Strathclyde Tri (almost Oly distance - 1.4k S, 38k B, 9.5k R)

29th Aug 3G's - XC 48mile MTB race

The problem is I've also just started a 2 year Diploma in Clinical Pharmacy, which is taking up a HUGE amount of what should be family time - I suspect I'll end up just doing 10 Under and the Strathclyde Tri - it's under discussion...!

"I'M BAAAAACCCK!"

Welcome back mate!

No wonder - I hope things work out ok.

Take a look at the following website:

Quite a few of the Donkey Nation in there.  Check out 003.

At the moment none at all! My Wee Tri is XC biking, so no aero for me

After the Wee one, I suppose I should clip on the one I've borrowed because the Oly in July will be on roads - I'll use it when I'm not on a "hill" section of a course and try to make it realistic.

(My problem's going to be that the trainer is Mr Sweaty-maker and the aero bars where foisted on me - I don't want to make them all skanky! I'll need to start training in the big outdoors I guess!)

I should add that, as you know - I know nothing - what does the Tamminator et al do?!

TracyV - 2009-02-18 2:16 PM I have a question. For those of you who ride on a trainer. How much time do you spend in aero? Please don't tell me the whole time!

Not nearly enough time for me.  I just went "aero" last summer and it took me the ENTIRE summer to get use to them.  I was probably up to about 50% by the end of the summer. I just don't trust the feeling and I was told I needed to be refit cuz my neck is really strained when in aero, so that may be the reason I'm not totally comfy.
