That is something I have been looking at as well. A new saddle. Just don't know which way to go.



Careful to what others say!  Everyone is different down there..... To each their own on this one!  I personally perfer NO PADDING what so ever!  It took me trying about 10 saddles before I found the one I loved.... TRY OUT A BUNCH!

kt65 - 2009-11-18 1:24 PM And now I am filling out my registration for Vineman   LONESTAR 70.3 2010! 

Will all of you pray for weather that tops out at 80F this year instead of 104F???  Am I crazy?  Or just a glutton for punishment!  I figure it can't happen 2 yrs in a row.  Good news is my swim start will be an hour earlier than last time


fixed it ..good job Kim!!

Check out trisports - they rent the more expensive ones for a week or so at a time to try for about $20 or so.  They also credit you part of that rental fee if you end up buying one.  Better than dropping $150+ on a saddle without really knowing how it sits...

Sad day for me in MG land...

I was on-site all day yesterday installing software and training a new client.  Spent most of today doing on on-site demo of the same software (different site).

Now I finally return and read all these posts about all of you actually doing work.  What happened to none of us working?

Woo Hoo - Hot Damn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just realized while filling in our group calendar at work that after today I am in the office only 2 1/2 days until Dec. 8.  Gotta love the holidays, family vacations and part-time work.

And no turkey pot pies for anyone in this group - you know who you are.  ;-)

I just got my son off to school, and I guess I am playing hookie once again from work...so I am off to do a little run.  Actually, I am "working" from home which I have been doing alot lately due to this sucking economy.  Going to try to get a SLOW longer than normal run in before noon where we will go to kindergarten to have Thanksgiving with Jones.

On a side note, the 5,6 and 7 year olds played for the football championship last night.  Damm those games are more exciting than the home college games to me.  Seems like the parents get way more into it than the kids do, but what fun!
For the second week in a row, we won by stopping the opponent on the last play of the game.

Dude, if your team scored as few goals as mine did last season, you would celebrate every one of them!  I think we scored two, maybe three goals all season...  It was pathetic...

I spent 4 years coaching competative cheerleading ranging from the pee-wees to college and no matter the age, coaching is so much harder than competing.  I hate standing on the sidelines and watching, knowing at that point you have no control over what is going on and there isn't anything you can do about it.

You would have thought that there was a person on my team named "Pass-it" and that I was continually mad at them.  Since "Pass-it" was so apparently incompetent,  I was considerably less angry at "Shoot-it" and shouted at them much less...

We started out with 2 boys (twins) who were the only ones that could score goals, one of them had 8 in a game I think.  Then my son started scoring as well, not as powerful as the twins but he was quick (must be from my genes)  and scored a lot that way, I think he got 2-3 per game after he found his groove.

Picked up my CT last night, but I was too tired to fool with it (I know, that's unacceptable for tri-gear-geek)  The trainer part says 8000 on it and it has what looks like a nintendo thing with it...

F'ING IT BAND!  WTF ... it hit me about 6.5 miles into my 8 mile run.  I was having a nice easy run just trying to get a few miles in and it started giving me problems to the point that I had to walk it in.  I thought I was over that, but I guess I need to regroup and rehab again...Sucks!

Racermate sells the parts to convert it to use with a PC if it is a Nintendo-ready unit.

Feel free to join the pity party.....best bet for you is to really isolate the cause. Until you do, it is always lurking in the shadows.  Once I can actually run on my foot, that is the game plan with my PT. 

Who is a master at backstroke?  I'm learning it and S wants me to have my head underwater to really get my feet level.  Uhm, drinking 1/4" of pool water everyday is not so fun.  Anyone else do this? or are you content to let your feet drag?

Not a master, but I do like to alternate backstroke & freestyle after a hard set.....get my breath & stretch out.
I wouldn't put my head all the way under the water in backstroke, just back enough that your ears are under water (helps push the hips up).  I will admit I typically drag my feet in freestyle, but backstroke - NO....besides it helps get the hips up. 

I would give anything to swim right now.....but no, my club closed.  Looking ay the Y tomorrow and then evaluating options.
