bEASTies - March Winds Challenge (Page 80)

Yeah!  Now I am caught up!!  Does that mean I get a cookie? 

Also, I think we need a new thread!

That is interesting.  The dude today said it'll take about 30 days.  We'll see what happens.  He is due for another audiogram in May.  If it is worse, I wonder if that will make any difference.

On to better things....like lunch!  What's everyone eating today?  Salad for me.

Have two, they're small.

Egg salad sandwich for me!  I even brought it in so that I don't have to go out for lunch

Always back to food!

I have leftover kebob sandwich but no lunch for me until at least noon (working on tea right now).

Ha!  Lunch toppage!

Ugh...  just my yogurt and fruit for me.  I got a double breakfast today and need to make up for it.  Someone brought bagels to a morning meeting and I couldn't resist  (after I already ate breakfast at home)!

Oy

Well, I hope everything works out in the end.  What  an annoyance!

I added my name to the list, just haven't thought much about it since!  I will need the challenge to keep me motivated next month as I start to really dive into my Oly training.

I'm in!  I'll be tapering for my marathon, but I'm hoping to finally add in some (outdoor?!?) biking on Sundays.  If the weather cooperates.

That's why Nicole is awesome.

Missy... that is CENTURY TOPPAGE!!!  100 pages... WOOT!

I haven't decided yet.  I really want some bread.  But there is no gluten-free bread at any of the places I can go to for lunch.

Instead of heading to the Y for a swim, I'm heading down to the cafeteria for some food.  Just can't bring myself to get in the pool three days in a row.  Feeling surprisingly blah for a Friday.  I'm in for the April challenge... I'll have to think about goals because my 20-week HIM training program starts toward the end of the month.  I'm really looking forward to getting on a "written in concrete" plan, rather than the "what do I feel like doing today" plan.

I'll report back on what delicious delectables I retrieve from the cafeteria...

Chicken pot pie... it was slim pickins down there!

Lol, can I get 2 cookies too?

Woo hoo!!  I didn't even realize that!!  Nice.

Why is it that I have the discipline to get up before work and train, to finish a workout even when I'm not feeling it, but I can't easily delay eating a lunch or snack for even 15 minutes?!?

Are you just going to follow the BT plan?

I still haven't decided what plan to follow for my HIM.  I was going to loosely follow the Olympic-to-HIM bridge just because it's 12 weeks, and there are 14 weeks between my marathon & HIM.  Except that I would modify it to focus on swimming and biking since I already would have the run base.  But now that I'm signed up to do my 2nd marathon 10 weeks after my HIM, I'm thinking I need to do some extra tweaking & plan combining. 

Gosh, I want a cookie.  I resisted ice cream cake last night.  I should get a cookie for that!

You absolutely deserve a cookie! Have two, they're small

Yes, I do use the BT plan... I used it last year and it worked nicely.  However, I do A LOT of tweaking.  For example, I know that I can't do long workouts every weekend on Saturday AND Sunday, so I shuffle around the workouts during the week so that my rest day always falls on the weekend.  Plus I have 3 races that fall within the 20 weeks, so I need to adjust the plan further to allow for some taper before and some recovery after each race.  I then lay it out on the calendar and make even FURTHER adjustments to allow for holidays, birthdays, etc.  I think what you're planning on doing with tweaking and combining plans sounds perfect.
