Ironman USA Lake Placid : Official Thread (Page 46)

wuss. (says the girl who will not bike outside sub 60).

I'm with you Jenn
I will run outside however deep the snow is (although I am trying to do my long run inside to acclimatise myself to NOLA for April).  The only time I won't run outside is when it is too icy and that is rare.
Now biking, nope not outside til it gets much warmer. I get sooo cold.  In fact my toes get cold riding the trainer inside sometimes.

I'm up near Rochester (Pittsford) and they are great at clearing snow (should be the taxes we pay!) but I am from UK and if there is a half inch of snow there the whole country grinds to a halt!

Thanks for turning the smack talk back on! It's not a "newbies" place to do it! =p

You know what's not benign? the LACK OF TRAINING GOING ON AROUND HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your Ironman is 5 months away, people, and in a quick survey of your recent training logs for the past 3 weeks no one seems to have trained more than 12 hours! My race isn't until October and even I was over 13! Get crackin'! Some big goal talk need to be backed up by the training! Consistency is King!!!!

stalker

and I think the newbie was saying get at the smack talk, as she was too new to do so (think there should have been an apostrophe in there, as in it's not a newbie's place to smack talk... or not) ... not that smack talk was bad.

This is a fun thread to lurk

^^^ Nice!

im smack (pun inteneded, ) dab in the middle of a 13:25 week....followed up with 13:40, 13:55.

And my 5-6 hours on on CT in the basement is some full on $hit....no AZ sunsets to look at.  Just some cinder blocks and the thoughts that go through my head.... 

I could do 13 hours in AZ by Thursday.

I'll see your 13 and raise you 2.

ABBA is not so bad.  The hard part is buying it.

"Well, you see, Leroy, uh... you know how you're always teaching us to master the art of fighting without fighting?

Well, I did you one better. I mastered the art of fighting... without knowing how to fight." *

That is my mantra for this IM.  Master the art of finishing without having to train.  It's a zen thing.

Jeebus. You're right! I *almost* hit 12 hours... 11 hours and 21 minutes. But, but, but, I'm pretty sure I read triathlon-related magazines for well over 2 hours last week, which totally counts as 'mental' training and strategizing. So THERE! SOMEONE hit 13 hours, mo' fo'. =p <- notice my apostrophes this time.

Yeah, what about all the time on the forum?  That should count too. 

^^^THAT JUST HAPPENED!!!!
