Joe Runner - 2009-03-05 6:26 PM This forum completely confuses me.  Has anyone noticed the number of pages? One day we are at 54 and the next we are back down to 47.  WTF?

Ya know, you are totally right on that. I just noticed that myself.

What happened to all of our pages?

I ate a great big peanut butter sandwich after my run today in honor of Tammy.  No, it wasn't natural peanut butter either!

I hope all the Wisconsinites are able to enjoy some of the nice weather today!

My first tri!

Fab! Came 11th overall.

Weather was truly horrific - someone said the driest part of the course was the swim!

Was 3 in the swim, 8-9th after the cycle and 11th by the end of the run.

My swim was ok, but I had goggle problems and I could easily have been 1st (by a good distance!) if I hadn't stopped to fix 'em. Anyway - the bike was hard, but good and I managed to catch someone up on the run, which is most of the way to a miracle!

What's my next event - I'm hooked!Smile

awesome  good for you!!

I'm aiming for a not too serious (yeh right!) Half Marathon in May, 10 Under the Ben in June and an Olymp in July... (The 1st 2 are just going to be mega training days and the half mary is going to force me to learn how to run...!)

Assumming that the rest of life isn't going to be getting in the way (as yet I haven't got approval from the boss!Wink - or a wet suit!)

Had a good run yesterday, but man, I really am slow...oh well...still love it. I think I am actually faster taking walk breaks on my longer runs at 4:1 I'm gonna try that again for a while and see how it works out for me. I will download the garmin info soon, maybe today I'll get to figure it out.

Congrats Keefmac on your first tri!

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.

Hello all, just an update.

Still not training, but working on figuring everything out. I saw the neurologist on friday and they have ordered two tests.... A visual evoked potential on this coming friday. They are scheduling the MRI. They are concerned about the exhaustion, muscle fatigue and the blurry vision.

I will let you all know once I know more. Keep training y'all. I may need your enthusiasm later.

They are testing me for Multiple Sclerosis. I hope not, but it would explain A LOT!!! Including the neck issue from last year. We'll see what come out of the tests.

It would be good to get a diagnosis so you can move forward.  Good news is, with MS, exercise may make you better.  Travis here on BT had like 10 spots show up on his MRI last year and since doing all the tris his last test showed maybe 2.  So, hope that is encouraging.  Good luck.  Thinking and praying for you.

tripletmom01 - 2009-03-10 12:47 PM We are quiet.  Whats up?  Have you made march goals??

 Crumbs! It doesn't seem that long since posting Feb's targets!

The March plan: I'm gonna swim for 2hr 15, bike for 7hrs 30 and run for 4hr 45

The running's gonna be lots of long plodding to try and up my distances (endless miles of Zone 2, I guess?)

The biking is going to involve a lot of hills - which I found quite hard in the tri on Sat - think I'll start some power specific weights - we'll see...

The swimming is just to keep up what's there. I should have been 1st on Sat - to have totally screwed my swim and only be 15secs off 1st is fine by me! (for now!)

Incidentally - they had so many takers for the Wee Tri, they ran it on Sunday as well - in horrendous weather - the fastest swim was 4 min 36 sec!!!Surprised And weirdly, he had the same bike and run times as I did! (I guess you can either swim fast and bike/run average or vice versa!)

March goals?

I'd just be happy to find the "wagon" again so I can get back on I was doing good until I got sick, Now I'm back to having to force myself to exercise again. At least I haven't gained back the few pounds I did lose.

So there it is March goal: Get back into the swing of exercising starting in the morning!
