Regular ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Originally posted by amd723 Originally posted by switch Say 4 our fathers and 3 Hail Marys and all is forgivenConfession time: Well folks. I just downloaded my Garmin data and have been looking at my swims. It seems what I thought was a 10sec RI was really anywhere from a 9.XX-17.XX. LOL! with the bulk of them falling in the 13-16 range. HAHAHA! Time flies when you're sucking wind So, I'm going to try to redeem myself by repeating this workout and keeping the RI to 10. I think a combination of new goggles and ending my hundres at the end of the pool w/ the pace clock will hopefully make a difference. Also in looking through the last two weeks my fastest 400 was a 6:08 and fastest 200 was a 3:02--done on October 18th (just part of a set, not a CSS), and those were done back-to-back with a 1:10 rest interval and what looks to be ~ 500yd WU (Garmin doesn't record kick sets, so I'm guessing there). Aaaaaaanyway, I have three take away points from this: 1) I'm psyching myself out on the CSS "test" as I've done it faster when not testing--nice. doh! 2)My perception of things in the pool is waaay more off than it should be. I'm going to look at my data after each swim instead of waiting until the end of the week. 3) When I plug the 400/200 from above into the CSS calculator, I get a 1:33/100 CSS. This makes more sense, especially given the splits I was doing during the 30 x 100, granted with a longer RI than I should have had. That's a big difference in the pain the workout will bring, but so be it. ![]() Consider it done! Though I'm still beating myself up-- the guilt, the guilt! GO JONATHAN! (behave new shoes!) |

Champion ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Hi Manatees!! Thank you all soooo much for all the love, inspires & support - you Manatees faching ROCK!! My day had it's ups & downs from taking in too much salt water on the swim & retching in the water, wondering how the hell NC managed to find a route with ALL 112miles of the bike in a headwind, to having so much energy left at the end to dance down the finisher's chute. What a great day and HUGE congrats to Janyne on a very strong race!! Mucho love - now... GO JONATHAN!!! |

Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Could not be happier with the day. Smashed my goal and 50 minutes faster than Galveston 6 months ago. Thrilled!! Actual time was 6h 12m. I didn't cross the timing mat so official ironman time is 6h 13m but still awesome I took it very easy on the bike because I wanted to have a strong run for once. So happy with today. 50 minute improvement in 6 months on a much more difficult course. Run had some very tough hills. Shoes held up great!! Happy happy happy!!! |

TT is seriously without a collective sense of humour at the moment. Me posted a thread over there and it ain't sexy enough even to get a single reply all day. Also, seriously embarrassed by what is happening in another thread. Winter is here. Perchance I will start a thread on whether showering before swimming is really necessary. Yeah, that's the ticket.
Well done for those racing this weekend. I know I'm not very vocal about showing support. Know that you have it. I read everything that is posted in the Pod. |
