Wait, is that a calf? Mmmm 

And what the sh*t is behind it? Large colored rocks or garbage?

Add myself to the injury list: I cut the tip of my finger off with a champagne bottle

 

Also, I was extremely sleep deprived so I put myself in a little slower group last night at practice. We did a flow workout. 3 miles at LT (although it wasn't quite LT for me) with a faster final mile.

I was leading a group (it's so funny that this happens because I am the ONLY one without a watch)but everyone but two people dropped off so it was just me and this other guy who did the workout together. We did:

Mile 1: 7:05

Mile 2: 7:05

Mile 3: 7:05

Mile 4: 6:40

He was wearing a headlamp (on the track ...) and was running behind me so it was casting a really awkward shadow of me on the track (as we don't have lights on at practice.)

Yowch! Poor pookie. So are you fingertipless or did you just cap it back on / tape / ER & stitches / hope for the best?

Asalzwed - 2012-11-08 11:14 AM

Tipless. Well, it's like the side tip. Not a significant piece and not really stitchable since literally the chunk is gone, lol. Plus I was busy and it was not really an important finger. Left hand,  ring finger. Oh wait ...

Anyway, I bled all over everything though. There was a trail of blood along the sidewalk and through the restaurant and my bag has blood stains all over the inside. 

 

*Oh and it was Andre, so worth it? Yes, but more for spraying and going, "Woooooo wooooo woooooooo!" than drinking.

She tries to copy me so much...

Asalzwed - 2012-11-08 11:36 AM

Ohh yeah! Well, you took it above and beyond and got stitches. Overachiever.

So, I have an opportunity to attend "The Tried and True Training Principles of World Renowned Coach Arthur Lydiard"

Thoughts anyone? 

A summary of his training principles:

The marathon-conditioning phase of Lydiard's system is known as base training, as it creates the foundation for all subsequent training. Lydiard's emphasis on an endurance base for his athletes, combined with his introduction of periodisation in the training of distance runners, were the decisive elements in the world-beating success of the athletes he coached or influenced.

And other than Wikipedia, I don't know a whole lot about him.

reecealan - 2012-11-09 4:28 AM Saw PC Physician today.  He's convinced it's the usual case of PF.  He wrote me a referral to Phys. Therapist who came highly recommended.  That appointment is tomorrow at 2:00.  Went to spin class yesterday, felt OK today, I'm still limping though, it's interesting how long this inflamation can last.  The PC doc mentioned cortizone as an option but didn't recommend it.  I'll chat with PT to get more ideas input etc.  Will swim tonight, maybe try and run a few miles after, we'll see how the foot feels.

Strasburg sock! Cold potato rolling!

Glad to hear you're on your way to getting ungimped, Peanutbutter.

OMG. Now it's 5:30am and I am seriously considering making peanut butter cookies for breakfast.

I mean, peanuts are a vegetable, right?

TriAya - 2012-11-08 2:04 PM

So who is teaching it?

By "opportunity," do you mean free or how much would you have to pay to go?

If it's free, good God, woman, I don't care if the neighborhood homeless guy is teaching it (he probably covers a lot of pavement every day), you MUST go. MUST MUST MUST. Lydiard is a LEGEND.

A friend of mine -- Maria527 -- has a bike with 650 wheels and she wrote the following when I asked her about using it on a trainer:

I have 650 wheels on my Tri bike and I have CycleOps magnetic (not sure how that differs from fluid); however I use my road bike (700s) on my trainer. But I do recall putting my Tri bike on it when I first bought it and I had to adjust the piece that screws out to fit the smaller frame. I would also recommend a bike block because the wheels are small and the front end of the bike might slant down too much without a bike block to even the front wheel with the back wheel. But it should fit with a few adjustments. Good luck!

Indeed. Taken down the street from my house (same street).

Aren't they a legume? Or not? They do grow in the ground . . . not on a tree.
