11/30 down.  This was my longest run in quite a while and longest for this training cycle. 11.6 miles at 8:30/mi pace in the suck.  The bad thing about snow is when they plow and you have to pick your way through the muck. 

 

I had a training misshap the other day rolling the ankle, then pi$$ed out on my s/b double.  I started getting knots (cramps, spasms) in my left calf the other day OOOOUUCCHH!  I needed this run to get back on track.  I have a 4.15 miler scheduled tomorrow that I may stretch out to a 6.2 miler as punishment for sleeping in on my s/b day.  It's either that, or I have to shotgun a warm coors light.  What say's the BDAS?  run an extra 2 miles, or shotgun a warm coors?

great workouts! make sure you are stretching that calf and possible foam rolling. Stay safe you beast!Tongue out

I took today off of my diet and my workout. Up early tomorrow. Moved my workout for tomorrow instead of today.

How many times as a teacher have I said - There is no such thing as a bad question...Guess none of my students have ever asked if they should shotgun a warm coors!

Get your a$$ out there and get it done!

Kevin: definitely run the other two miles – would not wish the alternative on anyone.

Matt: you are a brutal.

Got a good swim in today and went to the track right after to check on my hip... it is the impact from the landing that hurts. I am not sure what to do about this. I may call the doctor on Monday. At any rate, I got a nice two mile walk around the track in while watching a girl's soccer game, so it wasn't a total loss.

I thought I would try to get two workouts in today to make up for the missed workout yesterday. Hit happy hour instead of working out, but I did have a beer. I tried to branch out and have their “beer of the month” Rampage Imperial IPA, but it was only available in 22 oz, so I passed. I was blowing off my workout and that beer would have put me over my calorie allotment, so I just had a pint of the usual.  

Hope everyone's weekend is going well.

mcmanusclan5 - 2013-01-12 5:02 PM Run the 2 miles.However, if you bail, then you will have to run an extra 10k with a warm Coors Light at each mile - the "six pack o' shame"!Good luck with it. Matt

Matt - I knew there was a reason why we wanted you...

As for the six pack of shame - Peyton Manning should be forced to drink warm coors light the entire off season.  God, do I hate the Ravens!

Yoga tomorrow - it'll be a stretch but I plan on making it

Elizabeth - Mad props for foregoing the 22 to stay within your calorie count.  God knows, there is no such thing as a diet imperial IPA!

Sorry to hear that your hip is sore.  I battled a sore hip last year.  It turned out to be bursitis.  If there is a sore spot on the outside of your hip, you might have it.  But the fact that it hurts on impact means it could be something else entirely.  Definitely see a doctor.  Has ice helped?

I am already thinking about my goals for next week guys and I am wondering if you can help me with something.

 

I would like to start a Run specific training plan that culminates in a half marathon the end of May. I would like to ideally do 3 Runs/ 1-2 Swims/ 1-2 Bikes/ 2 Crossfit classes. Any ideas or plans you have followed like this? I have been looking through plans all day. I am just going to pull the trigger on one soon, but I figured all you crazy pavement pounders may have some good tips!

My 2 best marathons came after doing something very similar to ^^.  I ran 3x, s/b2x.  don't forget the rest day.  1 recovery run, 1 intermediate length, and 1 long run.  that's a good recipe for success.

 

Thanks Kevin, that sounds good .... now recovery run, I guess is just a short light run?  I was kinda thinking something like ... Short "Fartlick'r" run (that word always makes me act like I am in grade school again)...a normal race pace run....and a long slow run..

I am glad to hear we are on the same path, however I fear that I will be a little ways behind you at the finish...you are a running beast!!!

justinfss - 2013-01-12 10:22 AM Also, at the end of that plan, I am hoping to transition into a HIM plan ending in September.

We're on very similar paths.  I'm doing a mid May marthon, and a mid september HIM. 

Prost!

Justin, take a look at my planned traing in my training log to see a BT plan for HIM race in April

 

Wilco...thanks Bobby!

Wow, way to go on the weight!

Foam rollers?  Here was my "what do I have in the house already" solution.  A number of years ago my wife bought a fancy dancy pampered chef dual sided wood roller.  One side is about 3 inches and other maybe 5 inches.  It sat in a drawer for years unused.  Well now it is my calf roller  Who says I don't recycle.

My goals have changed, I want to get ready for the Tough Mudder in July, and a 5 k for april. Last year, 5 weeks before the Tough Mudder race in Vermont,  I hurt my back, and could not do it.  So my goal is to finish that thing, and get down to 200 lbs for it. So I changed my training for that one goal. I know it isn't a triathlon to train for, but was hoping I could stay in the group.

Alright Folks - It's time to pay the piper.  Last week, you created goals for yourself.  How'd you do?  This is a great place to brag about your accomplishments - but feel free to let us know why you might have fallen short and what you're going to do about it.  Plus, if you need support from the group - feel free to ask for it.

Here were my goals for the week:
  • Complete 2 yoga sessions and try a session at the Y on TuesdayLaughing
  • Lose 1 LB and record calories daily Laughing
  • Stretch for 2 hours and ice 3x Laughing - With the yoga, I stretched for 3.5 hours.  I'm gumby damn it!
  • Work hard in my workouts while avoiding injury Yell - Tweeked my knee during my long run, so I need to start getting the following mantra into my head: Less is more.  If you see me overdoing it this week, feel free to call me on it.  
  • Support my fellow Bter's Wink

Justin - you had 1 hell of a week!  4.5 lbs lost is worth a couple extra beers once you are done with your paleo diet!  Not only are you kicking butt - but you are doing an outstanding job of supporting your fellow BDAS members.  Today when I crack open a new saison from Mystic brewery (a NE brewery that specializes in saisons) I'm gonna raise my glass to you!

Ok... here are the goals from last week and what happened.
  • Swim - 3X - only 1 - work schedule got the better of me.
  • Cycle - 3X - achieved 4X, plus bonus for switching to clipless pedals
  • keep tracking calories - drink water!! - tracked calories all week - bombed on the water - bonus: down 2# at 155
  • hip stretches - didn't do this daily, but did get some in,  I'd give myself a C on this one.
  • take the hip out for a test drive - did this  

not perfect, but not too bad.

Thanks everyone for the encouragement yesterday!  Had a great day and everything went as planned (except the Packers and Donkeys losing; at least they were good games) got to add 18 birds to the list for the year, got all my chores done, ate lots of good pasta and stuffed tomatoes, tried a new beer State Pen Porter not very good, and had plenty of vino!  I ended up doing the walk instead of the jog as when I tried to jog the shooting pains in my shins discouraged me.  Had a good walk though kept a good 15:00 pace for 5.5 miles.  Great day over all.  

I was a bit leery of this morning's weigh in but got on the scale anyway and came up 0.2 pounds less than yesterday!  I guess I should eat pasta and drink wine more often!  Tongue out  anyway, here is the score from last week:

  •  Tuesday - 30 min jog  Yell Dang meetings took too much time! 
  • Wednesday - Gym Brick  Done! Cool
  • Thursday - 60 min jog Done! Cool
  • Friday - Bike 10 miles  Done! Cool
  • Saturday - 1:15 jog Undecided Walked instead of jog, but did a whopping 5.5 miles so did increase distance a bit!  
  • Sunday - Bike 15 miles - Deciding right now whether to brave the snow and cold or hit the stationary at the gym!  Either way it will be done!  
  • keep trying to improve cadence and keep on track with diet plan Cool
