I'm really ok with compromising on doing the half instead of the full. Most of my disappointment is from him not telling me.

It's probably better that I don't do the full given how little I've been running. Doing the half will reduce my chance of injury. Plus, we'll still be down there the whole weekend. I'm going to try to find a fall marathon I want to do instead.

I do like Jo's idea of talking about a fall marathon sooner rather than later. Assuming that you are still interested in a marathon, that is.

You and Jo are right. I want to give this a few weeks to see how it works and then we can talk about the full. The next few weeks will be crazy with Thanksgiving and getting ready for E's 1st Birthday party on 12/8!

I'm very excited! My new (crash replacement) bike will be in late this week! I should be able to pick it up in one week! Woo hoo!

You know you have to post pics right away, right?

I am sorry that hubby wasn't being very communicative. On the bright side, I think the half is a great distance. I have more to say because I think the significant other impact of training is an important issue to revisit. But it is late, and I am typing on my touch pad.

I agree. It's been discussed in various forms on TT. When the topic came up here yesterday I mentioned it to DH. I wouldn't have signed up for HIM training without his complete agreement. He is super supportive of my training and even joked about spouses who aren't. However, we don't have small children at home and that makes a HUGE difference.

So not touching this one on TT...sometimes I wonder about those conversations. I always end up shaking my head! I think E being so little is what makes this tough.

Yeah, major major props to you guys that juggle (on top of everything else) small children!!!

J has given me a stern talking to (or two?) and we've had to compromise on some things. I am lucky enough to have a gym (and showers) at work so that I can make a lot of my training 'invisible' to her by doing mid day workouts. On the weekends I make sure and have at least one day where we do breakfast together (has always been our thing.)

Of course we are just crazy cat (and a pug) ladies.

Speaking of, Stevie HATES the rain.

Yay on a tri this weekend--have fun!

I chose to go for a short hike today, and managed to something today, that I did not do the entire 13+ miles on steep, slippery hills on Saturday---I fell and twisted my ankle pretty good. Duh, me.

Anyway--here's overly wordy, not too coherent race report:

Yeah, that's what hurts on mine! Earlier, it started to feel normal, and then I crouched down to check oven temps, and it hurt SO BAD! It kinda worries me now, but I'll see how I feel later/tomorrow.

I iced (stood in the pool!) then put my compression socks on - well one which I slept in and it seemed to help.

Clint grabbed the ice pack and wrapped up my ankle for me, so I am now working hard at being helpless.

Adrienne, I've a question for you, since you are the only S-Bux employee I know. How can I tip using my card or app? If it can be done, I don't know how. If it can't be done, get this enabled and you'll have a huge number of eternally grateful barristas

Janyne, I can't wait to see the bike.

Kate, I hope your ankle heals quickly, I'm sure the Blue Moon helped ease the pain.

Jo, those shoes look fast. Consider yourself hugged from me. And as for the bike, I am betting that the stopping is a mental thing, once you get passed that hump, you'll be golden. Remember what you did during the coaching sessions and keep moving forward.

Jo, it is good to see you pop in. I hope all is well with the whole family, or at least as good as can be hoped for!

Melanie, any more thoughts on the HM? I think it is a good distance, kinda tests you, but is less daunting then a full mary. And the training is manageable, given the myriad of other things going on for you.

Jen, keep on training, keep on talking with him, and that Mary will fall into place. And keeping out of the discussions on TT is sometimes your best bet.

TJ, congrats on a great weekend, busy=good. And congrats to Ashley as well, that is a great accomplishment.

Reece, You've got a good outlook on the PF stuff, learning something about yourself is always good. Let it all fall into place and build slowly! I lost a good part of last winter trying to change my form. So, instead of just building mileage I ended up with a gimpy knee. Not good.

Yanti, I'm sure you know this already, but you are so blesssed to be able to swim with those beautiful creatures. Wow, that is awesome stuff right there!

I just pulled the trigger on a pair of Mountain Masochist II's from Montrail. I don't have mountains around, but they looked cool and the reviews were good. I hope to get some trail runs in this winter.

Now it is time to head off to work.

Good morning everyone! (or good evening to some?) Just another random drop in, been such a slacker still. I think if I get back into BT I will be more motivated again. Then again, it's the off season. I just don't want my waistline to get out of control!! Glad to see everyone else is still at it!!

I love everyone's new avatars - Yanti, you look FAB!!!!

I took everyone's advice and started talking about a fall marathon. I think he's much more open to that idea with the longer daylight hours on the weekend. I was going to run with a friend in IL in April, but now we are looking at the Chicago marathon or the Columbus marathon in October.
