JFord's Mentor Group-Closed (Page 6)

Happy weekend everyone.
90 minute 26+ mile trainer ride this am.  Hoping to get in a 90 minute run tomorrow, but the single digit temps and snow covered roads may make me reconsider.  Otherwise it will be relax day with snacks and beer during football.

55 min recovery ride. Tomorrow the fun starts. Day 1 of the 20 week HIM plan. Hope to run outside.

Happy Championship Sunday!
Slept in a bit this am (until sunrise) then hit the town park trail system for 10+ mile is 90 mins.  Felt great even after yesterday's long bike.

Found a cool website for anyone looking to improve swimming.   www.goswim.tv  this site has lessons, drills, and workouts each with a video to show you exactly what the expectation is.  I am looking to use a couple of drills this week.

I had a decent race today. Stanky Creek 5K Trail run. Time was 28:08. Nothing to fast, but thetrail was muddy and wet and it really got bogged down at parts. Overall it was fun andI got out of it waht I wanted.I feel pretty good about 9:08 pace on the trails.

Sounds like it was fun.

Rode 40 miles. Needed a day to recover. Only foam rolling today.  Prob ride another 20-30 miles tomorrow. Needed to take a family day too. Gotta balance it all out...

Well another all nighter is headed my way and wile taking a break I decided to do a little HTML work and posted in my on my log page a list with embedded links to this thread as well as links to each members Training log to make it super easy to inspire! the only issue i am running into is how do I copy and paste the HTML code without it doing what it is coded to do....

Dont suppose anyone has any ideas.

Great work Joe!

Works like a charm!


Oh, and i hate your avatar! ;-)

Glad to hear it works

Why do you hate my avatar?

It's Cheri's and Yanti's and Nicole's and Kate's fault that it's my avatar. Blame them

Edited by joemac3 2011-01-24 1:26 AM

'cause you're fit and i'm not. :-) Yet...

I'll blame that girls!

I am not quite that cut anymore *trying to get back there* however I do believe that I have more endurance now that I did when that was taken

Why is that my fault?

*lick*

Morning everyone.  Good workouts for me this weekend although Sunday's were done while seriously hungover.  It's amazing how a late night of drinking can turn a recovery swim into a heart pounding sweat fest.

Good way to get rid of a hang over... or make it worse...

I believe that you helped encourage me to put a new better looking avatar up

Sweet!  Thanks very much.  Now, if you could just figure out to make it link to the last entry in the group forum . . .

:P I am not a web designer, I am sure there is an HTML scrip to put in but I dont know what it is. maybe I can find 10 min to search for it

Seriously kidding.  I'm just glad for the link.  I was going to have to quit the group if I had to keep scrolling down through the groups to find ours.  Thanks again.

Hey everyone.  Quality time spent with me and GYM, I feel like our relationship really blossomed this weekend.  "He" made me feel a lot of emotions while we were together.

Morning Roomies!

Sounds like some of us had good weekends for training. I am really starting to get the racing bug!

I am on week 12 of P90X this week!  Thankful to be finished, and then next week  I will really be amping up my miles trying to get ready for MIM. (Memphis in May).

I will be hitting the inspires today, and I encourage all of you to hit each other up with one!  Thanks Joe for the script!  I am so not a computer minded guy!

Ya well you made me feel bad about it so I spent the last 30 min. looking for the code and couldn't find it. I will put a call into my web designer friend to see if he can help me out in a little while :P

Joe, I copied and pasted that code into my dashboard and it doesn't appear to have worked for me, but I see others have it right? Is there a way I could have screded it up?

Umm.... make sure you copy the whole thing, like you didn't forget a < also try going back into your dashboard settings and hitting update again, I don't know why but I had to update twice before it formatted properly.

One thing we have doen in other mentor groups, was to set some goals. One time we did a group goal of completeing an Ironman distance with our training logs (run 26 miles, bike 112 and swim 2.4 miles in a month) Start thinking if that is something we can do as a group and that way we can help motivate, kick in the butt when needed.

If no one wants to play, that's cool too. We can make it to fit each person individually.

That's a cool idea...
