March S-B-R BLUE Team (Page 4)

All right... Big weekend for me coming up and I will be in a lot of pain on Monday I'm predicting.

Thurs: 1 hr swim, 1:15 bike, 20 min Brick run

Fri: 1 hr swim, 1hr Yoga

Sat: 4 hr bike, 30 min brick run

Sun: 1/2 marathon race

That is 10.7 HOURS of training in the next 4 days! My coach is nuts, but so am I ... I'm also not expecting a steller showing at the half marathon...

An easy relaxing weekend coming up for me as we are flying to Denmark tomorrow until Monday night.

I am planning to run in spring like temps and without snow and ice on Saturday and Sunday and I am really looking forward to it (we got more snow last night )

I am not sure I have computer access while away so I probably won't be posting my Sat/Sun mileage until Tuesday morning...

Have a great weekend everyone and good luck to everyone who is racing!!

GO BLUE!!

What's up ahead for me this weekend?

Happy training, happy racing and Happy St-Paddy's Day everyone!

Oh... and yes, GO BLUE!!!!

Global...good luck in your half mary....

for me, I feel like I have finally shaken the grunge...the plan for the weekend is:

Fri: 60 min run (lunch); 2700 yard swim (evening)

Sat: 120 min bike (afternoon); 2000 yard swim (evening)

Sun: 90 min bike; 30 min run ( morning brick); 1400 yard swim (evening)

Friday is suppose to be my rest day but I feel like I have rested enough at the beginning of the month. I will go easy on the lunch run and evening swim. More of a coast......Need to swim every day to try and catch up on my monthly goal.  This week has been a total wash so far because of non-training life requirement scheduling.

Have a great BLUE weekend everyone!

This weekend should put me over my goal in the bike...to about 60% on the run...and just under goal on the swim.

Friday: REST!
Saturday: Olympic Distance Race
Sunday: 5 hour bike (trying for 90 miles)

GO BLUE!  Good luck to everyone who's racing and happy training to everyone who's not.  Happy St. Pat's to everyone too!!!

Here are my commitments for this weekend

Tonight - Swim - 2200 yards, run 4 miles

Saturday - Bike - 45 miles

Sunday - Run 9 miles

Here are my totals from last week

Swim - 2200 yards

Bike - 58.53 miles

Run - 19.1 miles

This puts me on pace for the Bike and Run, I will be hitting the swim a little extra hard this week to make up for my lost workouts from last week.

Hey there Blue Team...hope everyone had a great training weekend...it was beautiful here in Florida.  Managed to snag a piece of 3rd place in AG hardware at my race on Saturday and rode 83 miles on Sunday.  I'll be at goal for the bike after my workout today and on the swim on Thursday.  But I'll probably need the rest of the month to complete the run goal as I keep getting yelled at for running too much.   

Totals for the week:
S: 4175yds
B: 155miles
R: 20miles 

Hope everyone has a great week of training this week!!  GO BLUE!!!

Congratulations on your hardware, Q!!

Here are my totals for last week.  As promised, I actually did something this week. 

Bike: 13.9 miles (total = 28.75 miles)
Run: 23.61 miles (total = 30.64 miles)
Swim: 0 (total = 0)

I've been planning on focusing on swimming for the next two weeks.  I know I'll need it for recovery this week. 

Had a great weekend.  I raced a half-marathon and slaughtered my time goal!  Here are my totals so far:

SWIM: 5.5/10 hrs - 55%

BIKE: 15.66/20 hrs - 78.3%

RUN: 6.25/10 hrs - 62.5% 

Duely noted...my plans call for 9700 yards this week of swimming...I think I will have gills by the end of this week!   I will be above pace by this Friday <-- Commitment

Wow, I'm impressed with how everyone did this past week... Way to go y'all!!!

Congrats Q on your bling bling and congrats on your half-mary time Global!

Keep it up everyone, I'm confident we can finish this challenge in first place!

Go Blue!!!

Hi everyone

I am back

Congrats to all of you who raced, I will look at the race repots tonight on my nightshift (will give me something to do )

I just updated my logs but was only able to run 6K over the weekend. It was a lot more stressful than I thought and the weather was as bad as here at home but I am looking foward to a good week now

Let´s go BLUE!!!

Thanks for the props you guys!  Hope everyone's having a great week so far. 

I'm now at 100% for the bike.  I guess I should have pledged more like 400miles but I didn't want to overestimate being that my taper for IMAZ begins at the end of the month.  But I guess I underestimated cuz I'm at 302 miles and I still have a century to do this weekend.

Im about 350yds from my swim goal as of today, so that should be at 100% by the end of the week, and my run goal will probably take til the end of the month.  But I'll get that done. 

Happy training this week team!  GO BIG BLUE!

 You bet it does - as it should!! 

guess I left myself open for that one...doesn't matter, yellow is going to fade away as Team Blue is getting stronger by the day.

Freaking out about taking the day off but my body is telling me I really need a rest day.  Guess I should listen....

Catching up quick and should have no problem reaching my monthly goals.  Just need to get in about 8,200 yards of swimming before Monday...let's see, that would be about 2,100 yards a day for the next four days....might be a bit dizzy after flip turning so much but doable.  I will get back into the game...I will not let the team down!  These challenges are great for keeping me on track!  Thanks everyone!

Go TEAM BLUE 

I hope that everyones training is coming along well.  I'm back on track with my swimming.  I got in 4 swims last week and I've got in all on my planned ones so far this week.  I should be over my bike goal after this weekend and will probably end up with closer to 25 hr in the saddle this month.  This month will be by far my highest volume month since I started this crazy sport. 

Here is where I am right now: 

SWIM: 7.5 / 10 hrs ~ 75%

BIKE: 16.83 / 20 hrs ~ 84.2%

RUN: 6.88 / 10 hrs ~ 68.8% 

I've got an hour ride and a 35 min brick run on the plan tonight not including is these totals.

Happy training
