Extreme Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() uhcoog - 2013-02-07 9:04 AM jarvy01 - 2013-02-07 7:56 AM I am exhausted. IV bag of caffeine for the day? Yup, I need that. For real. I got in my tempo run this morning and have a trainer ride with tabatas later. Me and the trainer are going to become VERY familiar with each other over the next few months.
You and your trainer are going to become very good buddies once Quinn is here. Edited by jarvy01 2013-02-07 11:46 AM |

Just filled out our adoption application and I'm hoping to meet him this afternoon. He's at a kill shelter so time is of the essence. |

He's at a kill shelter so time is of the essence. That's exciting! Picture? Do you have any other history?The only picture I have of him is sad because he looks so scared at the shelter. Not much history, he's fixed, has a cherry eye that needs some vet attention and is a little shy. I would like to take Abbey with me to meet him but shelters freak her out (she came from a kill shelter as well) so I don't want two high stress dogs meeting for the first time. I cannot stand to see a hurt or scared animal. I've always had a super soft spot for fur babies. |

It's big. It's the most painful jump out there IMO Thanks! Now you're scaring me! |

Some of the weight gain is muscle gain. You are gaining in performance and as long as you feel better (other than looking at the scale) that is whats important. X2 on this. Don't forget muscle ways twice as much as fat. I say toss the scale too! |

It's big. It's the most painful jump out there IMO Thanks! Now you're scaring me! Double the swim, bike is longer but still not a ton of pacing, and the 10k is everything you've got. You go from what an hour to hour and a half with the hammer down the whole time to 2.5-3 with the hammer down pretty much the whole time. At least in Iron distance events you pace things out.
Which Oly are you doing? |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Me too, all my babies are adopted! My female lab, Bella was dumped off 1 week before giving birth. I was only adopting her, however, my Mother, a softie as well, talked me into taking the last puppy in the litter .. So now I have Briggs and Bella, mom and pup and it has been awesome! Oh, and can't forget the cat named Tag! |

Which Oly are you doing? In my dreams!!!! You are a young man; I, on the other hand, am a 52 year old late blooming athlete. The first sprint that I completed last year has an olympic bike ride. The swim was an 880 and then the 5k. I came in last, but I was glad to have done it and finish. That was my goal. The other two sprints I did last year were better. And I didn't come in last place in the USAT rankings. My goal with this new challenge is to finish. I'm not too worried about the bike and run. Just did the equivalent of an Oly this past weekend. That's why I signed up for the April Oly. Now, I need to get in the pool. I am doing the Spring Fall Classic at Lake Tawakoni on 4/28. That was my first sprint last year. This is their first Oly. |

At Poconos I made him listen to 1D at 3:30 a.m. as we drove to the race site. He was trooper (even after the 5th time I put "Stand Up" on repeat). |

Extreme Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I listen to alt/alt rock. Sometimes I will put pop songs on a race playlist to mix it up. Some that always seem to make it on: 1. Heads Will Roll - Yeah Yeah Yeahs 2. Army of Me - Bjork 3. Let Go - Frou Frou 4. Sail - AWOL Nation 5. Smack my B Up - Prodigy Right now I am loving Imagine Dragons, and the song Radioactive is at the top of my playlist, as is anything by Florence and the Machine. |
