I'll second that in the good run.  8:08!  Wow.  I've never run at that pace.  That is bookin!  Good job!  I'm more around the 10-11 min pace and just sub 10 on race day.

With Mike Ricci's help and some good workouts, I'm on a mission to to get those times down.  Off to the Y for an evening workout.

Did 3.30 miles on the treadmill in 27 min. today. Legs felt a loyt better, not as heavy or tired. 14 miles left to my goal of 50 miles in Jan.

Hope everyone is doing fien with their workouts and staying healty.

Great job on the swim Buddaha, I haven't done over 1000 yards ever. Good times also. Wish I could lower my times to yours on the swim.

Does anyone have any tricks to stop snacking while being bored. I am terriable about snack on bad stuff. Then after I am done I realize that I didn't need it. Need some suggestions on this topic. HELP

How does everyone keep track of their laps when they are swimming. Does anyone else loos track as they are swimming? You can always guess but then you are not sure you swam what you wanted. If so I got this for christmas and it has helped a lot. Now I can just concentrate on technique and not remembering what lap I was on.

Found this on another thread. Looks like a good way to build up to a mile.

Hi Guys,

 How's it going?  Off to the pool again.....ugh... I am still bikeless.  My bike hasn't showed up yet in the mail.  Thank god my pool doesn't have that chlorine problem.  I did belong to a gym that did have that problem.  I kept hassling the manager about it.  Finally it got better.  I tried the nose clip to help the smell from going up my noise but then my breathing went to crap.

FYI- Budda is coming this way and we might do a race together.  Can't wait.  Fingers crossed. 

Keep those RPE down this time of year.  Easy - slow - long, you can't go wrong.

Hey Tyler.

Just caught a little of your podcast on I-Tunes. Kind of cool to actually hear your voice and what you are up to. If anyone is iknterested I looked unter triathlete in podcast.

I've got two really AWESOME recipes for superbowl.  Not sure about the health factor but I swear, if there is any left over, well then it wasn't my recipe.  :-) On it's way tomorrow. 

1. Crab dip  (made my imitation as well for shellfish alergies)

2 Mexican Corn Salsa

Thanks for the listen to the podcast.  Got another one coming by the end of the week.  Sunday was a rest day.  Tomorrow is a swim and run day.  Might throw in some light weights.  Running in my first race of the year.  10k Classic in Saint Pete this Saturday.

Droped another pound. 204.

Hey Buddaha

Do you have off the rack running shoes. Might be the shoes are wrong for your stride. Go to a running company store and have them check your stride. Maybe it's the shoes. They can suggest some shoes to go with your stride. I have off the rack shoes now but plan on going to the store and having them check me out and see how I run sometime in the near furture.

Did a BRICK workout today. Ran 2.57 miles than got on the stationary bike for 30 min. then went back and ran 1.79 miles. Forgot how heavy your legs are after you get done riding for the first half mile or so.

Plan on swimming tomorrow.
