Team Skinny (Aug 2008) Turning the Corner (Page 7)

We are on. Remember, here are the rules:

Miles:

Biking 1-1

Running 1- 5

Swimming 1-10

Weightloss 1 pound = 10 miles (if you wanna let me have this one)

I will let you have the weight as a side issue since if I lose any more weight my wife will kill me.  Tell you what you take your weight for 10 and I will take my "other" stuff as 1 hour for 10 miles, yoga, abs, simplefit.  Deal?

PS:  I see another butt whoopin' coming.   I sure do love a good challenge.

deal

You don' t really think you have a chance on this one do you?

 Just cause I haven't done anything in a week doesn't mean I won't be coming out like a house on fire

I like it, everyone going with Sailing as he is the reigning champ

Tricupcake,  You are breaking my heart.

Comet:  Thanks for supporting the "Old Fart".

Tricupcake:  Good point,  Thanks for the compliment.

Comet:  Have fun and don't eat too much fried fish.

Can ya'll believe that I let myself get into a S/B/R challenge with an Official "Ironman" and marathoner?  What was I thinking?  (should be a country western song.) 

"Feel the fear and do it anyway."

Rough last week has shot my weight up to 218.6, so that will be my starting point.

Let the domination begin!

gonna do my weigh in again tomorrow morning since my wife has her Weight Watchers meetings on Tuesday evenings and we go out for a "cheat" meal afterwards.

here's hoping i can get down a pound or two from last week.

my first Tri is this weekend as well so i'm starting to be a nervous wreck.

My weekend sucked, too.  Sunday wasn't as bad as Saturday but they were both just pitiful days.  I'm such a sucker for Tootsie Roll Pops.

Needless to say, I made today's bike ride an increase-in-volume-ride (that's past due anyway), so I went from 12 miles to 14 miles.  At my current training level, biking is easily the best for me when it comes to burning calories.  I burned almost 600 during this morning's ride.

I think I burn the most calories on the bike, too.  I did a brick on Saturday and burned just shy of 1500 calories.  Then I proceeded to dinner and drinks and totally made up to any deficit I may have had going.   Argh.

carlacrews - 2008-08-11 12:29 PM How was the weekend skinnies???  Anyone eat as much crap as I did???  Weigh in Wednesday will not be fun this week

YEP!  and drank like Enders too

You toying with me again Sailing?

So far today for me 1500 in the  pool and 25 min of weights

Slow day Shermy.

1000 yds swimming and 28.21 bike.

Oh yeah,  20 min's of simplefit: 65 pullups, 130 pushups, 195 squats.  I will try to keep up.
