canadarn2001 - 2008-10-06 7:12 PM Hmmm...do you think it's b/c we are so focused or are we suffering from a bit of OCD??? I like think we're focused and dedicated!!

We're just sad, sad people

Like everything, in moderation it's good for you.  That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I like the way you think.

No sad, just totally normal....for a Triathlete!  I think we may all have a touch of OCD.  I came in from my eCycling class (90 min Computrainer class a.k.a. my 2x weekly a$$-kicking) and logged my workout immediatley.

As for green boxes, I have a green one from yesterday....it's totally acceptable!  YELLOW is banned!! Peeing on your saddle is acceptable, peeing on your training log....big no-no.

Obviously I'm still a bit green. I can't quit go the peeing on the saddle idea yet...few more miles on the bike , maybe I'll get there. I got the peeing in the wetsuit down tho'.

I got a 45 minute run session in....well not all of it was a run.  Still tight from Sunday.

So another OCD-type thing....when you run an out-n-back course do you have to touch something before you turn around?  I need to touch a sign, a lamp-post, mailbox, something before I can turn around and head back.  Anyone else???

not me abbie!  Last night, I went for my run/walk and I was just wandering around the neighborhood.   It was about time to turn back so I did run to a signpost but I didn't touch it.  Does running to the signpost count?

 I was actually a bit giddy this morning putting in my workout before getting yelled at by someone (like pigpen!).  I swam this morning with a few minutes of deep water running afterwards.  I also decided to stretch in the hot tub which felt oh so good. 

I have to touch something with my foot...like it was the finish line, or the exact point that I meant to run to.  Interesting folks we are.

Yes, unfortunately it seems I have this problem also.     

I tend to have to touch something but usually I run a loop or multiple loops before an out and back.

Sorry that I haven't been checking in - the past few days have been he--ish.

Yesterday - 2 mile run

Today - 30 min strength, 30 min bike

Still trying to work off the extra lbs from wine on Sunday night.

Stacie

4.25 mile run in this morning with my daughter in the jogging stroller.  7 days and still feeling 'peachy'. 

Todd

Yes salmon works as does green (races), but no white or the dreaded yellow square!  Welcome!  Just log your training here and on your log everyday. 

Ha ha!!  I had a peach with breakfast and then washed it down with half a brownie.  Damn I hate holidays in an office setting!  Too much junk food.  I'm throwing this pledge out for the rest of today, it should help me stick to it....I WILL NOT EAT SUGAR FOR THE REAT OF THE DAY!!!  sugar will not help me change my body comp.

 I have to run around something... It could be a light pole, mail box or a mark on the road but thats how I know I made it to the end.

I was running with my wife one day and about 10 paces after we turned around I ran back and looped around my phone pole. She was so annoyed!

 Todays workout is 45 minutes in the weight room and 35 minutes on the bike.

LOL!!! I have not used my YELLING font yet on anyones log! But don't give me a reason! LOL!

By putting this in my goals, it has slowed my computer down, is this normal?  I took it out and just have links now....still slow, but odd, no?

Uggg MORE Peach insanity....I think I have gone over the edge for peach.  from today's log:

"I may be getting a bit obsessed about "peach boxes".  When I see yellow boxes on someone's logs I immediately go back to mine to make sure that my square for the day is peach!  WTF!?"

I'm all for the touching...and definately NO cutting corners.
