SWBKRUN Mentor Group-"Off Season?" What is that?!! (Page 57)

Great run Trevor. I have done a few 15+K runs and they are tough.

Wow, looks like Team 3 is good to go!  Rob, I can't believe you let Reuben get away with that "rash" comment...lol. 

Good luck Holly, John and Andy. 

I hope everyone has awesome workouts this weekend!

I am off to Oahu, HI on Monday for a one week vacation!  won't be able to bike much unless I can find a spin class but am probably going to focus on swimming ows...the water is much clearer and warmer there so I can practice sighting hopefully and i'll do some warm weather running which will be great practice for my upcoming oly on june 7th...

Good luck Jeremy.

Have a great time Kim. Talk to you when you get back.

Suzy - your Team 4 might have chants, but look at the mottos the Deuce is kicking around:

"Not just floating in the pool"

"Nobody RUNS like us!"

"Making skidmarks at the dismount line"

"We're Movin' Now!"

For the record, Team Won doesn't do gimmicks.

So I have been MIA for quite awhile, sorry about that.  I have decided to do the sprint tri in June as opposed to the Olympic.  The training for the past few weeks has been scarce with the new addition to the family and working keeping me busy.  That being said, I did get a chance to get out and race a 5K today (my first one in years).  I will do a full race report later today.

I signed up for the race just to see where my fitness was.  I had a few good months of training early on, but recently I haven’t been getting them in, so I wanted to see what I could do.  Going into the race I told myself that I was going to try to average 7 minute miles and see what happened from there.  I ended up running 21:07.  It was in the 40s and windy and the last half of the race was uphill, so I was happy with what I did.  The new goal for the season is to go sub-20 and then work down from there.  I’ll give a more detailed updated later.

It's actually all done with mirrors

Finally back to training today. The "Rashman" is gone and Redknight is hitting the roads. Although I didn't log anything while I was away we did keep very active with swimming, pool volleyball and watersliding. We had so many adults ont eh water slide at one time one day that they shut it off. I guess they were afraid someone was going to get hurt. They didn't understand that in my family it is only fun "until" someone gets hurt. Then it's a sport.

Very weird swimming in the ocean The waves were pretty strong and I swallowed some salt water until I got the hang of not breathing into the wave. Once I got out I had to have a few beers to get the taste of the salt out of my mouth. I tired running there but it was brutal. about 35 everyday and I couldn't keep enough water in me to run far. Only tried once and gave it up for the duration of the trip.
