Tased and Confused (Team 1) - January Challenge (Page 32)

billsorg - 2010-01-28 5:46 AM Its seems like the Tased and Confused gang has bounced back to life, your's truly included.  Fun story this morning... got up for a 45 min drainer ride.  I was 30+ minutes into it when my wife came down to the "pain cave" to notify me that our cat, Butterscotch, had a mouse trapped in our linen closet.  Well, fatherly/husbandly/gross duties take precedent, so I went to conquer this ferocious beast.  With plastic bag in hand, I opened the closet door to see this nasty little creature scurrying around.  Butterscotch was having a blast with her new friend.  After I finished screaming like a tween girl that just caught a glimpse of Joe Jonas, I wrestled it (the mouse, not Butterscotch) into the bag.  I will spare you the rest of the details, but let's just say Mickey won't be getting in his workouts today.

Got in three sports today...  A swim that included a 1000yd TT (improved by a little over 2 minutes since Dec 6), a 50 min trainer ride followed by a short brick run of 1.6 miles... 

Goal is two workouts tomorrow....

ebshot - 2010-01-28 7:32 AM What's everyone up to today?  I have a run/trainer on the schedule.  Also making bread and cleaning as usual.  I lead such a fun and exciting life, no?

KOM - 2010-01-28 7:43 AM Almost as exciting as mine: office notes to finish from yesterday, strength training at 10:30, consult gig at noon, schelp 17 yo, run easy 5, get spin music ready, make dinner, teach spin at 8 (20'TT tonight)--you might notice the phrase clean house just never seems to come up! :P

So is a double brick one workout, two workouts or four workouts?  Enquiring minds want to know....

(1 hr bike / 30 min run / 1hr bike / 30 min run)

I would put it in my training log as 4 separate workouts: 2 bike, 2 run.  Not sure about how to log it for the challenge.

ebshot - 2010-01-28 11:20 AM Had a great run today.  I am tired of running slow.  I have no idea where my (relative) speed went so for today's 4 mile tempo run, I decided to really push it.  I had my first sub 10:00 m/m average pace in awhile!   And as an added bonus, my hip didn't yell at me too much.

Now on to the trainer for the afternoon.

5k at lunch 10:30 pace  - first time to have no walk breaks since my knee injury back in October...  WOO HOO!!!  Will hit the drainer tonight back on Jorge's plan...  maybe will try to brick the drainer ride, but that depends on the temp / precip situation at the time...

Yay!  That's quite generous of you.  Although I have to say this wasn't the sort of buzz that I thought you'd be giving us.
