Manatees - 2019 Edition - Practice Maximum Enthusiasm - CLOSED (Page 83)

So much cuteness!!

Hope your ouchies are feeling OK today.

Stalking peeps at IMMT was very fun!  My former masters swim coach recently turned pro (and got out of the swim coaching business) and finished 7th in the pro field!!  The fellow that is currently running a version of the masters swimming is also a pro (and is a tri coach but not my tri coach), he finished 9th pro.  Congrats, Randee!!

I want another one!

Huge congrats to Randee! I was stalking from the car! I can't wait to hear about it. It seems to have gone well!

I don't see any updates on Anne's page. Her training looked great going into Steamboat Springs. Hopefully, she had the race that she deserved.

Yikes! Sorry about the tumble and hope you're not too sore today.

Looks like RAndee had a great race! 

So, for those manatees who are doing the relay in November, do you have any specific training plans in mind or in place to prepare for the event?

I am honing my driving skills

I would suggest hill training.

probably should, but right now nope!

Thanks chris. I'm terrible about keeping my bt race log up dated but you caught me

Don't thank me, we all know who is the Super Stalker of Manatees!

I don't have any particular plan at this time, however, when we did the Tuna Run 200 a few years back, the RD said something to the effect of "if you can run a half marathon, you can do this."  I'd start with a HM plan and go from there. As you know, the route is hilly so take that into consideration. I do think that I'll have some split runs as well. 

Yeah, my tentative plan is run 3x week (plus fit in some swimming and biking but keep the emphasis on running).  One possibly flat, one hillier (maybe trail runs), and one longer run with hills.  Hill repeats sprinkled around.  Two-a-days sprinkled around (but kept short).  Try to be better about rolling/stretching.

Heaven help me, I just registered for Chatt 70.3!!  

Way to DOOOO EEEETTTT!!!!!

Nice! Compared to Lake Placid this will be easy!

WOOOO! How many Manatees are registered now?

I don't think I'll be racing it next year as 2020 is my (potentially last) Ironman year, Wisconsin in September. But I may pop up there to volunteer - it's less than a 2-hour drive for me, and is always a target race for my tri club so we'll have a tent and lots of cheerleaders.

I think four?

1. Ann-Marie
2. Robin P.
3. Melanie
4. Janyne

It should be a fun time! 

I think that we need to recruit TJ. Let's trap her in a van on November 2 and work on her...
