Firstnet911's Group- Closed with a great group (Page 8)

A great time was had at the BT get together yesterday!

Plan to ride the trainer for 30" easy tonight and tomorrow is a 16 hour work day - so no training tomorrow (rest day??)

It's always a fun time meeting the Donks and Donkettes!

I needed to do something today, so decided to blast in 2300 yards swimming.  I don't feel that bad either!

EEEEAAAAWWWW!!!

Help -

I am trying to figure out my January run totals - My January log says one total and my 2008 one shows a different total - just the miles part.  All of the hours are identical in both logs. Any ideas?

When I look at your log I see the same thing Posted for January as I do for the 2008 totals. (there is the December data listed between the two).

Can you post a screen print of what you are seeing?

I got it figured out yesterday and fixed it - my miles for Trailbreaker  were in my April log so that is what threw it off.

What is everyone's plans this week???

Moonlighting tonight and Thursday so training volume will be lower this week. Probably do 8 on the tready tomorrow and Swim or Bike on Wed. before work.

Longer volume this weekend since I'm off !

What do you moonlight as? 

I need  to do some strong runs this week - I want to do some 7-8s and throw in some 4s to get to my 100 challenge.

I still keep my RN license and moonlight a few nights a week at an Urgent Care center.  It pays for my Tri addiction.

Crazy - do you have yak tacks or any other type of studs?

Scott,

Remember, running in snow and ice adds new  lateral forces to your hips and knees that take time to build up.  Take it easy at first or you may get hurt.

It's a long time between now and High Cliff!

Great job, lrun...

At lunch today -
10 x 50 - 54 sec. each hard/avg., w/30 to 60 sec. rest in between.
4 x 100 - 2:04, 2:06, 2:08, 2:06, w/30 to 60 sec. in between.
2 x 50 - 49, 48, with 60 sec. rest in between.
2 x 50 cool down - around 64 sec. each.

Birkie had a good swim plan the other day and I modified it.  Boy, it was a good one, too!

Only have 1100 more swim yards to finish this month's challenge go, so I'll do a nice and easy 2nd swim workout tonight after work to complete it.

EEEAAAWWWW!!!

OK team..what's on tap for the weekend?

Me: Swim tonight. Run Sat and Trainer ride Sunday.

You??

Me - tomorrow Elliptical early am - then spin class and 1 1/2 hours of spin training. Core crunch in  between

Sunday - 6-8 miles, strength training for athletes and the elliptical.

Today (Sat.)  a touch over 7 miles ran, after switching my rest day to Thursday and my long run to today.

Tomorrow, 90 minute ride.  Not going to be able to make the DTC, so I am going to be hitting up the drainer in the basement and hopefully finding a good movie to watch.

Craig,

You were right about the snow and ice running.  It did a number on the knee, but the upside is that I learned some good new stretches and they have helped a ton.  I have done a good amount of foam roller work on my IT band and it really seems to help tons.  On todays run, my knee didn't start bugging me until about the 55 minute mark.  I hit the roller as soon as I was done and did some other stretches and it feels much better.

Nice job on the run.

My azzz is sore from 2 1/2 hours of spinning.

Thanks a lot, I can imagine that 2 hours off spinning would do that.

Yeah - I was a pretty lazy spinner by the end and I started standing a lot more to ease the "pain"

Completed 2200 yards swimming earlier tonight.  Completed and bypassed my month's challenge goal.

Feb. coming around very quickly - I hope that the weather is better since I need to get back into some running.  All the swimming improved my upper-body and cardiovascular, but I need to get the legs going again!
