LazyMarathoner - 2009-06-26 8:58 AM Morning tasers. I slept in, all the way to 7:30, and boy did that feel amazing! I love Fridays off. I'm heading out in a bit for a 5 mile run, then will drive to a nearby lake for a long open water swim. Today is a light day in prep for the big day tomorrow - full IM course ride with a 7 mile brick run. Gulp.

7:30 is sleeping IN??????????


Sadly 6 is usually sleeping in. IM training changes your idea of what a normal hour of the morning is and I hate mornings. I'll be up at the blissful hour of 4 tomorrow morning. Good times!!!!

HARD CORE is what that is!

I've made it up for a few 5:30am rides and swims with a local group... but working my way toward pre-work training little by little.  I have yet to get training before 6:30 on my own!

My BF is a late night/late sleeper kind of guy, and I need to just get over that and not try to keep up with him.


Yeah, it's not what I prefer either but work is so unpredictable I decided when I took on IM training that I'd have to do most of it in the early morning when I have control over my time. It's amazing how you acclimate to less sleep and earlier wake-ups, but when you do get to sleep in, it's the best feeling in the world!

Mornin' everyone!  I just did a yucky 5 mile treadmill run on a hotel treadmill, but I reached my goal for the month!!!  So now I won't get tasered, right?



Grats on reaching your goal, as far as the tasering goes though, who knows with Dee ...

Morning folks. Just got done with my morning run. My first long one in a while. Did 7.03 miles to give me 44.7 for the month. That's right 44.7 out of my goal of 45. Or 99.33% of what I need to do to finish. Why did I stop at 99.33%? I don't know, I guess i'm STUPID thats why. For cripes sake I could have run out to the car and got that but NO I'ma gonna make a special training session just so I can do that .3 miles.

Yuk - yuk - yuk. Har dee har har.

Have a great day everyone.!



Don't forget to stock up on fluid for the .3 mile run

Good job on reaching your goal for the month, well almost! 

 

Thanks for the advice. I've got a 4 bottle hydration- belt just for this run. I have been wondering, I have these gels I take for longer run for extra energy. At what point do you think I should take one on this run? Is one gel enough?



I say grab a gel at mid run

toddg - 2009-06-25 6:42 PM Reading other articles and I came across this which I have to try tonight for a snack...


Toasted Peanut Butter Banana Sandwich

  • 2 slices whole wheat bread
  • 1 medium banana
  • 1 or 2 Tbsp natural peanut butter
OK, I have to admit.... I've never eaten peanut butter & banana....


What?!?!? PB and nanners is seriously one of the best combos on earth! A drizzle of honey makes it even better.


Have you tried it with Almond Butter?  I can't believe that since you mentioned it in Hyannis (wait, I *think* that was you!), I still haven't tried Almond Butter.  I'm going to look for some in the store tomorrow.


I'll have to try that next. Made the normal one last night and it was decent.

That's pretty funny, actually.

But you'll get another run session, which is good.

Nope. You won't get tasered. I'll be too busy tasering everyone else who has NOT yet reached their goals.

So if you don't want to get tasered or cattle prodded I would suggest strapping on those running shoes

It's June 26th. And I don't like losing challenges. It makes me cranky.....

No zapping for you!

Although, since you're going to raise your goal.... well, it just means you'd better run, run, run -- so you don't get zapped, zapped, zapped!

Nah, if you hit your goal, I won't taser you.

Well, maybe I will. But not quite as much.

Got 5 miles in so I'm at 76.05 miles against a goal of 80 so I'll make it! Saturday's brick is 7 miles. It's a good thing since I think Monday and Tuesday will be light days and may not have running.


Good thing for that brick. LOL

I got to use this at work today:



It's a high frequency generator that produces a spark at the end of an electrode that is used to test for vacuum inside of sealed glass tubes.

We call it the Zapper  


I WANT ONE OF THOSE!!!!!!

It sure looks like a taser to me!  Dee will love it!

Of course, I'll need someone to test it on....

Any volunteers?

ebshot - 2009-06-26 6:24 AM Hey guys.  I tried to run this morning.  Really, I did.  Twice even.  BUT, I think I have poison ivy and it was WAY to uncomfortable to run.  I thought if I changed my clothes it would help but it didn't.  So, I got up at 5:00 for nothing.    I hope it is gone enough to let me run soon.  I only have 3 more miles to go!!!!!

OH NO!  That is terrible.  I might get the poison ivy just because I read this post!  I am so allergic to it.  I have to take prednisone a couple times a year for poison ivy.  I've had to cancel a couple of races because of it, too.  Erica, just do a mile a day until you are done!  <img align='middle' src='https://beginnertriathlete.com/discussion/images/emoticons/smile.gif'>



GAHHHHHHHHH!

I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOO ALLERGIC TO POISON IVY!

If you take even one step towards me, I will ZAP YOU!

(Seriously though -- hope it's NOT poison ivy, and that it clears up quickly.)

Frighteningly it looks quite similar to something I saw in the Sex Machines Museum when I was in Prague last summer! Surprised


A Sex Machines Museum?
