Jon, there's a Jonathan Gerbode-Grant from Rhode Island holding what appear to be beers...is that you? Also, on the orthotics question, maybe try just 20-30 minutes the first couple of runs and see how your foot feels. If no muscle soreness, then slowly ramp up time/distance. Yup! Went to school at URI. And what's this farm town stuff? on FB? Edited by jgerbodegrant 2009-12-18 3:31 PM |

Pro ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() What do you guys/gals have planned for weekend training? I'm putting in a 1 hr 20 min bike tomorrow and 55 min run / 30 min bike on Sunday. How do you guys plan on handling your workout through the holidays? I'm in a bit of a pickle. I have Christmas day through the following monday away from a pool and a bike...so my only real option is running...but then again, I'm trying to get into running slowly so I don't have all the problems I did this past season! |

Extreme Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Want to get a snowshoe in this weekend but don't want to skip my long run Saturday. So will try for a 90 min run tomorrow than a snowshoe and bike on Sunday. Will be home over the holiday so no problem there. I used to skip my run on Christmas day because the kids would get up so early. But now that I have Brewer, that gives me an excuse to go out for a run after all the gifts are opened. They are even calling for a little light snow so that is always fun. Have a great weekend all. |

I have Christmas day through the following monday away from a pool and a bike...so my only real option is running...but then again, I'm trying to get into running slowly so I don't have all the problems I did this past season! Nothing planned so far. PROBABLY going to do some core workouts and maybe a 20-30 min bike trainer in, or a run. The training will be on the lower priority this weekend as I'm flying to NJ for two weeks, so I need to clean up the house as it has been neglected for a bit due to finals and me feeling like crap. Definitely will do "something" though. Workout during the holidays - since I won't have access to a pool or my bike, run it is. So I'm bringing my warm clothes and go for a couple runs during the two weeks. I haven't really started my real training yet, so none of this "missing workouts" will bother me at all. I definitely will work on some stretches for my back and core though, that's the priority above anything else. |

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Swim and drainer Saturday morning. Sunday is a five-mile run. We are supposed to get some nasty weather so may have to work around that. We are not traveling for the holidays, so I am lucky in that respect. Edited by abake 2009-12-19 6:12 AM |

Personally, I wish he would have chosed Stanford - then we could have stayed in California where it is WARM ![]() |

Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Holidays are great for training for me. My husband is one of 8 kids, currently we all descend with our collective 28 children on his parents home that is no where near big enough for that volume. So, before dessert is served I head out for a run every holiday to escape the chaos and the dessert calories!! It is my sanity saver. On the logs, I did well last season logging my workouts...but got a little lazy afterwards. Will start again this weekend! Hi to everyone and I am looking forward to getting to know you all in the coming months! ![]() |

Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Someone mentioned the Door County Tri and that they missed it last season. It was a great day...other than very rough water that led to the swim being cut short, I think I heard there were 4 foot waves and quite a few people bailed on the swim. It is on my list for this year. With many of us living in the same vicinity, it might be nice to compile a list of the races everyone is planning on doing. Might be able to get together at the races or at least chat in the days prior. I never knew anyone who had done the races I did, so I always read the previous race reports, but we could be good resources for each other. Any thoughts? |

Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I realize many won't know their race schedule for a while, but it could be a running list, updated as needed. I wouldn't think it too cumbersome...could be wrong though ![]() |

Extreme Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I have a few races so far: I want to do the Chicago Rock n Roll 1/2 marathon in Aug if I can find a hotel downtown. Green Bay 1/2 Marathon in May We have a duathlon here in town in May. Wausau has a triathlon here in Aug that will be my 11th year in a row. In Feb there is the Badger State Games. Not sure which event I will do this year; snowshoe, CC skiing, trail run or quadrathlon.Depends on the snow. Edited by Lumber Dad 2009-12-18 8:47 PM |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() As for my first year - all my races will be local, and I'm doing a couple charity rides/run. IronGirl Las Vegas Triathlon - May Lake Las Vegas Triathlon - Aug Las Vegas Triathlon - Sept (I think I'll do a Oly if I'm feeling pretty strong!) Santa 5K Run - Dec Others - Pumpkinman Triathlon - Nov, Not sure, all depend on money and whatever. I'm not sure if doing 4 triathlons for first season is too much. But this would be a nice close to the season. Rock and Roll Marathon -half-mary - I'm not sure if I want to do this, but it's not out of the question though. ADA Charity ride, RTC Viva Bike Vegas, and MS180 (eeps, they increased the mileage...not 100% committed to this yet since it's in Nov, around the same time as Pumpkinman). I have not yet have anything set in stone, except for ADA Charity Ride. I'll be doing a metric. |
