Julia's Group - Full (Page 7)

I have a good mix for running that i like.  Some of the same stuff, but I like to listen to different stuff sometimes that I don't hear on the radio all that much. 

Send me on my way--rusted root,Galvanize--The Chemical Brothers Listen to the music-Doobie Brothers,Crazy and Smiley Faces--Gnarls Barkley**, Vertigo--U2**, Gold Digger--Kanye West, Cascada, Pretty Vegas--INXS, Take me Out--Franz Ferdinand, Under Pressure--Queen & David Bowie,My Doorbell--White Stripes, Heavy Metal Drummer--Wilco, Suddenly I see--KT Turnstill** (one of my favs!) SexyBack--Justin Timberlake, Finding out true love is Blind__Louis XIV, Let go-Frou Frou, Turn out the light--New Amsterdam, Dance Dance**Black Betty-

 Spin Cd is a little more techno in nature--Like Ready, Steady, Go--Oakenfeld and Dare--Gorillaz  but some people like to run to that.  I don't like the hard core rap and I usually am a more mellow in nature so I mix up so I have all sorts for a variety in my run or spin.  I'll pick it up on choruses to do some speed work and have recovery songs too! 

So what are our goals for this week?? 

Mine are to keep my drinking in check - I'm on vacation so it might be difficult   And to get in at elast 9 hours of training...  I think that would be manageable.   

HAVE a GREAT week everyone

Ok, If I was in Mexico I would not be worrying about keeping my drinking in check...have a corona for me!  Heck I've been on vacation from working out, or so that is what I keep telling myself to keep me from biking or running and I am drinking more than I usually do!  (Maybe it is putting me over the edge!) 

My goals this week....Yoga 1 night and swim 2 days, lift 1 day...maybe try to do a light bike on Friday if all is feeling ok.  Drink more water!! 

I'm a little late posting this, but my goals this week are to start tracking my hours slept, and to practice yoga/stretch at least twice for 10+ minutes. It seems like I'm always tired, I think I delude myself about how much sleep I'm actually getting.

Hope everyone's weeks and goals are going well!

Diane&Mike - 2007-02-21 9:24 PM So found out today that our event is one that does not allow for headphones. What a bummer Well thanks for giving the heads up - now I know to do as you advised and train without the music too.

Just do it once or twice a month - no need to torture yourself every day .  And when you do, think about things like how often you drink water - if there are aid stations every mile on the course, then just take a few swigs every mile.  think about your form and how much fun you had on the bike and in the water

They will actually give you a pretty hefty penalty in a triathlon.  In a running race, it's ok, but in a tri, it a communication thing - and VERY dangerous on a bike.  If someone wants to pass you, you can't hear them coming etc.  I honestly would NOT do it.  Even if you're just a novice.  You might be surprised at how much more you absorb and enjoy the whole race experience too

I'm really having a hard time with goals right now...I'm seeing that deadline approaching rapidly and wondering if I will make the cut off point.  So....

 Goals:  Check out registration for another HIM (Racine?)

             Be more positive....

             Swim 3 days/Yoga 1 day

             Core work x 10!!

             Bike 10 min.
