what i should have added: there are many times when i miss a workout due to life getting in the way.  I do try and make sure to do a long run (wknd) and at least either the tempo or speed session mid week.  Trust me, look at my logs, I do not over do it.  But I do have to substitute intensity for time since life does not afford me lots of extra time.

My "llimiter" is not the shorter sessions.  be it tempo or speed, if its under 2 hours i can pretty much handle whatever is thrown at me.  My real limiter is muscular endurance: after about the 2:30 mark despite a relatively low heart rate (sub 150 BPM) my leg turn over slows measurable and cannot hold pace regardless of HR.  At the end of my marathon last year I was running 11:xx but my HR was about 140.  My quads just freeze up.

What's the answer? Run more.  that is always the answer. Oh, and lose weight. Not a lot of ex-D tackle marathon champs out there

What he doesn't tell you is that if he didn't have pace booty and personal bike escort the 11:XX would have been a walk.

admit it: my bleeding nipples turned you on.

So wrong yet amusing.

Its even more wrong when you realize Jeff-y looks like a big teddy bear.

Been there, done that.  Now my frieds accuse me of having "the AIDS".  In fact I was introduced that way 2 weekends ago.  "This is my friend Scott, he has the AIDS."  Awesome way to get introduced to a group of people you don't know.

No run training for me (on dry land) for a while.  My right lower back/hip is still not happy so todays run will be in the pool.  I'm working on getting an ortho appointment but I'm not sure there's much I can do other than not run for a few weeks.  Mentally this is really tough on me.  I love running and its not "work" in the same way swimming and biking are.  More time in the pool is not a happy thought.

I'm also thinking that Rev 3 is going to be an aqua bike.  I don't think its worth pushing it that close to IMLP.

So this looks interesting:

Chocolate based gels always sit heavy in my stomach.  Not a fan.  And I tend to side with Jeff, why mess up chocolate with fruit?

I havent had to lube anything prior to racing yet.  Knock on wood.

Thankfully I have never had that problem, but I got a nice like chafe burn under my boob Sunday from my HR monitor . . . . AT least you arean't carrying around boob weight . . .

So, while we are on the subject I was thinking last night (after inspecting my chafe burn), how many parts of your body do you all have to lube before training/racing? . . . . I think I got at least 5 now (feet, crotch area, underarm, under the boob now, underneath where the bra hits my chest)

Can't wait to hear . . . should be interesting

LOL - before anything longer than a sprint I tape the nips, and slather myself vaseline (shaun - hold your tongue).

FTW!

Just don't ask to see her teeth.
