pdbman - 2010-03-16 1:00 PM My son finally woke up after his long hard night.  He's feeling much better and was able to eat something. Also heard back from the doctors office from my call this morning.  He should be ok. recommended eating mild foods and drinking lots of water. Here's to hoping he continues to get better.


Glad he is on the mend!!

Luv the handlebar tape Melissa - very cool bike.  If it gets you from T1 - T2 - who cares right?
The tape was on clearance.  I figured I would use Sale tape for my first taping job.  I did pretty well. 

I think it is funny that I have carbon fiber aero bars on a steel bike.  I've been considering doing a carbon fiber water bottle holder too, just for the pure ridiculousness of it.


A carbon fiber water bottle holder with a steel insulated water container would be ironic.


LOL  --  this made me chuckle!

Just got back from my run. I'm at the point now where the improvements are coming easy (my pace is getting more consistent and distances are getting easier) but I know there is a plateau just around the corner. Time for some food.  Good night every one.

I'm up to date on all my goals except biking.  Time for me to get out on the road.

I finally got another swim in.  4400 yards.  

I am going to have to do some timed 100s, 200s, and 300s during my next workout.  Either I am getting a little bit faster or my counting is slightly off.

deehtz - 2010-03-16 6:48 AM Good Morning Twisters!

Yesterday was a rest day for me.  I also had a massage after work.  I was very pleased that I didn't really have many problem areas from the training. 

The rest of this week I want to really push the training.  I am scheduled to do more workouts than usual if I follow my plan.

However, I might get  a bit of interruption.  My step-daughter will be induced Thursday if she doesn't go into labor by then.  She has done well thru the pregnancy, but now is developing some mild toxemia.  So the dr. says no later than Thursday. 

If a workout gets missed, I will make it up at the beginning of next week which is a lighter week and starts a 2 week taper to my first event.  It is only a sprint, but it is my first, and I find that this "older body" needs a little more rest than I read about in some plans!  Wink

Hopefully she goes into labor on her own.  Is she late?  Is this her first?  So exciting!



Her  "official"  due date is the 17th.  But the baby has been in "dropped" position for weeks.  And yes it is her first.   In fact it is the first grandchild for all 3 sets of grandparents and we all live in the same town with the young couple!  We tell them that between the grandparents and the aunts, they really wouldn't have to raise the child at all.  Just keep passing her around!   LOL

Actually, they will be great parents.  Smile

I was at 3cm for 6 weeks!  I "ran" 4 miles at a race just a few days before my due date.  He was 2 weeks late.  I had a super easy and fast labor even though he was my first.  I hope she is the same way.

wgraves7582 - 2010-03-17 5:33 AM I was spent this morning so I slept in and then just took a nice leisurely long walk into the office.  Probably hit the pool after work for a short swim.


How far is your commute?  You can either ride or leisurely walk it?  I'm confused...Undecided

wgraves7582 - 2010-03-17 5:30 AM Good Morning TWISTER's and Happy St. Patricks Day for all you Irish brethren out there

So I nursed a slow leaking front tire home last night and now I have another flat to repair - 4 for the year so far!!!!  And it is only March


With my riding my big fat knobbies on the road, I haven't had any problems with flats.  I hope I don't because I don't know how to repair one.  I need to go take at maintenance/repair class.

My bike commute is 19 miles but I drove today and I park about 10 minutes or so away (free parking ) so I did a big loop and took some pictures.

Topa d'mornin' TWISTERS!!!!

Sorry I've been a little rogue lately... been off of work for the most part the past couple of days and have managed to keep myself busy doing nothin' much...
Monday - Birthday ride up a canyon... felt SO good to finally get up it, it's been a goal of mine for a while - though it didn't deliver the mileage I thought it would    But it deliver a TON of shoulder pain, so I at last went and got a shorter stem for my bike on the way home
Tuesday - My b-day... went for a short run... once again I came up short of the mileage I wanted, I still haven't hit a 5k since my knee surgery   Then I finished yesterday w/ a kick@$$ preliminary interview for a job promotion!!!
