| Subject: RE: SWBKRUN Mentor Group-Closed! TIME TO TRAIN! Is there an updated group table? I know I am missing some people on the table I have, but can not seem to find the latest one (only 86 pages to flip through). And being as non-technical as they come I can not seem to figure out how to update it myself. Thanks |

Elite  4108   Calgary,AB,Canada | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN Mentor Group-Closed! TIME TO TRAIN! Nice job Roni!! Looking forward to the Onion Report this today. Doug, man with your times, you'll smoke your 1st Tri regardless of length. Once you get that first one done, you want to do one every week. Going to be a quiet day today at work with all you US of A'ers on holiday. Was nice this morning as I usualyy can only swim for 30 minutes. With the US holiday, I swam for an hour got in 2k which felt great. Going for a good run shortly, and meeting up with a friend who did his 1st tri yesterday. |

Thanks Andy! Now I need a little more help. I was checking on my teammate Barry (Go Deuce) and was a little suprised to see that he wears many hats - "mom, wife, recovering attorney, aspiring triathlete, and horrible cook". Then I realized I have somehow linked him (Barry) and Chris to Shannon's page. I told you I am very non-technical. Can anyone help me fix this? Looking at the codes I am thinking I have linked their #'s, but do not know where to find someone's #. Thanks |

Extreme Veteran 689 | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN Mentor Group-Closed! TIME TO TRAIN! Roni, great job on a brutal course! How are you feeling? any soreness? Doug, you're FAST.. I agree with Trevor, your first tri should be a breeze with the times you're posting. I'm probably going to post the rest of my times on wed or thurs. I may re-due my swim as well. the times that people are posting makes me want to go faster! |

Champion 5522 Frisco, TX | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN Mentor Group-Closed! TIME TO TRAIN! I found them by looking at the web address when I was on someone's logs. Not sure if there is another way. I then edited the table in the HTML editor by replacing the name with the name I wanted and the user id with the one for the person I was adding. Pretty simple to duplicated. I am the master of cut and paste! |

Master 1467 Small Town | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN Mentor Group-Closed! TIME TO TRAIN! Sounds like some peeps have had a good weekend! Congrats Roni! I've enjoyed the weekend, did a practice run (reverse) with complete distances for my first outdoor tri this year. Felt good, feel more confident about the swim, but still not like a fish. But if I put out an 8 minute swim I can still easily break an hour! Hope every enjoys Memorial Day. Thank someone you know who has served. |

Expert 945 Auburn AL | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN Mentor Group-Closed! TIME TO TRAIN! Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend...(sorry to exclude you Canadians). We just got back home from a weekend at the lake. I managed to get in two OWS's and a 4 mile run this morning. Tough run this morning, could be the diet that I was on this weekend  Looks like some people are getting in some nice times on our competition. I have got to get my butt in gear. I am dreading the TT run. Most of my runs seem to be in zone 2 or 3, and I know a TT will have to push the uncomfortable zone. Am I ready to go there? I guess so. I know I was not built for speed. Maybe endurance or distance, but definitely not speed. |

Champion 5522 Frisco, TX | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN Mentor Group-Closed! TIME TO TRAIN! OK, goofy question. I have my first 60 mi ride coming up this weekend. I have done 40 a couple of times and usually end up a little chaffed. What if anything do you all use to avoid the chafing and at what distance do you all start using it? I see all sorts of advertisements in Bicycling magazine for creams and butters, etc. |

Master 1467 Small Town | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN Mentor Group-Closed! TIME TO TRAIN! I've used BodyGlide for a while now and it protects well. Good note: Put it on yourself in the obvious area's, but also rub it on your tri/bike shorts in the crotch, especially over the seams... this will spare you much grief over the following days! HammerNutrition also makes a riding cream. |

Elite 3395 Raleigh | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN Mentor Group-Closed! TIME TO TRAIN! Looking over the times that have been posted, I am determined to up my swimming. I ope to get to the big pool near me when I return to the US so I can give it another go. I went for a 5-6K walk along the Iser river when I arrived in Munich. I could feel my left hamstring was tight from the run and my left Achilles was sore. I know, at least for this year, that I wont approach that run time in a real tri. I carefully selected the location, waited until I was well rested and did not swim and bike beofre hand. I am hoping to break 1:20 for my first tri. I am sure my transitions will be less than ideal. Doing the virtual tri has helped give me a sort of bench mark in the individual areas. I think I can use this a tool in my training as I compare individual workouts to these results. It also gives me a window to what is possible. Thanks for coming up with the idea. I need to go and look for your race reports, but I have to teach a class in 20 minutes. It is 9:40 in the morning here and I have a full work day ahead of me here. |

Expert 1010 Greer, SC | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN Mentor Group-Closed! TIME TO TRAIN! Hey everyone~ I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend. Unfortunately I spent the entire weekend working. Although being a golf professional sounds pretty cool, the hours kind of suck. (All weekends and holidays - other than Christmas). Forgive me as I am way behind here, but just a few quick belated congrats: Roni: Great job on your first olympic - and from what I read, a really hard one at that! RedKnight: Congrats on your 5K time. That is awesome. I am looking to break the 25 min mark. I don't know what Rob is thinking doing it in 19m! I came as close as I have so far at my first tri doing a 10K in 51m. Rob: Since I won't be able to check in until Sunday or Monday and I can't remember the exact date, best of luck in your race. From the way it sounds, you will rock it out! All considering, my training has been going pretty well. I still have my achilles issue, but to a much lesser degree and I am getting the itch back again. After my race in April and my achilles problems, I kind of lost my desire, but am now getting it back. I think it was the 40 mph I hit going down a hill in my aerobars on my last few rides and getting my running legs back under me. My swims have been a non issue. I just want to get faster. I did 2500 in 40m yesterday, but really want to get my HIM time 30m or less. I'm heading out next Monday to get some new running shoes. - Neutral ones. Anyone have any they would recommend? I am going to get them fitted for me, but did not know what everyone else is wearing. I am thinking Mizuno. Anyone racing this weekend? |

Elite 3395 Raleigh | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN Mentor Group-Closed! TIME TO TRAIN! Chris: I feel your pain regarding your profession. My neighborhood is on a TPC course tht is hosting its annual Rex Open right now. I hadn't really figured the work for the pros, but boy do the grounds crews have to work their butts off around this thing! And if the weather is challanging fuggedaboudit! You really have a catch 22, you don't have to work if it rains, but then you can't train all that well either. |

I see all sorts of advertisements in Bicycling magazine for creams and butters, etc. This is what I use http://www.performancebike.com/shop/Profile.cfm?SKU=21231&item=20-2485&slitrk=search&slisearch=true Funny thread on Bikeforums on Assos Cream and similar products, people talk about only putting it on for 50+ mile rides and eventually putting it on to ride down the street to the store because they get addicted to it. Chris, as far as shoes I would make sure you go to someplace that knows what they are doing with regard to shoes. I know I wear a neutral shoe but they gave me 3-4 pairs in that category to try out but I only really liked one of them, Some had too wide a toe-box, some had arches that seemed too high, etc. I ended up going with the NewBalance over the Brooks I was wearing before, the new Glycerine's just didn't fit like last years did. Pro's at every club I was a member of always seemed to work their A$$ off either running the pro-shop, doing lessons, setting up for tournaments, etc. Seemed to rarely ever have time to actually play. I know that feeling finally got to a single digit handicap, my wife and I used to play 4-5 times a week now before we had kids. Then with kids we might not even play 4-5 times a year, all memberships gone because we wern't using them. |

Champion 7163 Verona WI--Ironman Bike Country! | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN Mentor Group-Closed! TIME TO TRAIN! tahrens - 2009-05-26 9:14 AM Welcome back everyone. Didn't do much training this weekend. Looking forward to jumping in with both feet this week. Hey Tracy--you can actually have your homocysteine levels checked at your doctor's office with a blood test. Do it the same time you get your cholesterol checked. Homo doesn't change much so often times one is enough. My FIL had bypass surgery and we were perplexed why needed it since his cholesterol levels were good, but it was the homo levels that got him. Often times inflammation occurs when training levels are high, but that is usually good old coritsol causing the issue. To combat that, I eat a lot of greens (and juice them) and take chlorophyl, cumin and amino acid supplements. Probably more than you wanted to know, but if my cortisol levels are high my adrenals are compromised and my training suffers. I have officially have all my times in for the virtual tri contest. I was hoping to better my run time, but with the month running out, I may hold with what I have. Sorry team #4, not my best effort. With all the talk about swimming (thanks Doug!) I feel like I better high tail it to the pool to get started. It takes me twice as long as most of you to do the same distance! Make it a good day! Suzy |
