No races for me this weekend. I've got a long run planned for Saturday morning - I may go join the local runner's club on their group run. I've been thinking about joining anyway so it would give me a chance to meet some of them. It's finally going to be a relatively nice weekend, I can't wait to get outside for my run! Then a swim and bike ride on Sunday. In between I'll try to spend some time with my son (when he's around) before he heads back to college on Monday. Janet |

Master 2436   Apex, north carolina | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN- Miles and Miles ahead!!!! CLOSED I'm a little late but.....supplements. I take OTC Iodine (Iodoral) supplements. No thyroid problems but the chlorine used in pools binds to the same receptors as idodine; therefore your body can develop an iodine deficiency if in the pool a lot. I notice a big improvement in my attention, metabolism and sleep habits when I take my iodine. Also take either whey protein or recovery shakes after hard workouts. I feel so much better the next day! Trina - keep going girl, you're doing great. I second what everyone else has said and I was the same way. My first race had a 2 mile run and I had to work so hard to reach that distance. When I started I couldn't run 100 yards. It took about 8 weeks before running didn't completely suck...so hang in there. And tread mill running and outside are very different. I don't hold a consistent speed so treadmill running is difficult for me. You were probably doing the same thing by starting off too fast. DJ - MY DOG IS NAMED HOBBS!!!! Gotta love Calvin and Hobbs!! Cat is named Guiness - ha ha ha. If John is showing up at Lonestar in a bow I don't think I will be coming....that is just a little too scary for me. I love you and all John but I don't need to love ALL of you  |

No races for me either. I am scheduled to ride the CT at my LBS on Sat for a couple of hours. I also really need to get a trainer but my LBS will let you ride their CT for 2 hrs for $10.00, so I find as long as I get there once a month, along with my spin classes, it seems to work for me. Bonus is they will usually help you with fit if you are struggling a little and they are not to busy. Need a long run on Sunday without any Knee / ITB issues. We will see on that. It is to early in my season to start pushing, so any pain and I won't run. Suzy...got any room in your bag for the Mexico trip? This Wisconsin winter thing is really starting to grow on me! Dino |

Master 2005 Silverton, Oregon | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN- Miles and Miles ahead!!!! CLOSED No races for me this weekend, but have a trail run Saturday and a 1.5 hr bike on Sunday. If the weather cooperates I'm going to try for an outdoor ride, otherwise it'll be the CT. Tracy- Does that mean you are coming to Lonestar?!? I hope so!  Steve- Have fun on the Half! I'm sure it'll be great! |

Master 1690 Metro NY Area | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN- Miles and Miles ahead!!!! CLOSED I would look more into masters swim group or something like that. It's your time in the water that is important. So paying someone $100 for an hour, you will still have to put in time throughout the month to work or your stroke. You would be better off swimming once week with a group, more would be even better. Have you checked out Jack Rabbit Sports? They have tri and swim clinics at various places in the city. dbw27 - 2010-01-13 1:01 PM CyborgQueen - 2010-01-13 11:35 AM No racing for me. However, I'm looking into a Friendly 5k Race on President's day. They also have 1 mile walk. I think I would like to at least try it. No goals, just finish, and less walking, more running. Also - Swim Coach lessons start this weekend! Hey DJ: I am looking into/starting with a swim coach. How often do you go? I am thinking of having coaching 1x/month as at $100.00/hour that is all I can afford. Hmm.. thought of masters swimming but I think it is too much on my plate right now. Thanks. :-) dbw27 |

| New user 37 Long Beach--So Cal!!! | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN- Miles and Miles ahead!!!! CLOSED Wow--the pages keep stacking up. I am just trying to keep up with work and training... This weekend is still no racing. Since I should be done with my cold, I will shoot for LSR of 15 followed by master's swim practice on Saturday. Sunday will mean a ride of some type--maybe trainer maybe road. Somewhere in there will be strength, daily core, and hopefully a short swim lesson. Supplements I take--daily vitamin, calcium plus something healthy I can't remember, iron, and the TJ's joint supplement chontrointin style? Hope all are staying healthy and happy-- Krista |

Extreme Veteran 310 Colorado Springs | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN- Miles and Miles ahead!!!! CLOSED Hello All!!!! I just wanted to thank you all for making me take a rest day yesterday. It payed dividends today as I had a great swim this morning and posted my best run splits ever. YOU GUYS & GALS ROCK!! On another note...My poor VOLS got crapped on today......I guess we have to look at the positive side, we no longer have to worry about how Kiffen is going to embarrass our beloved football program. |

Thanks. :-) dbw27 I haven't gone yet - first session is this weekend. 4 weeks for $75. This person have done tons of triathlons and swim races. They also provide OWS coaching as well if you desire. Unfortunately, it's in Vegas. It's not individual coaching, but with a small group, hence why it's a bit cheaper. Honestly, if you really cannot afford it and is looking just to get better in your strokes and stuff - you should look in your gym Aqua classes and see if they provide "Stroke Mechanics" or "Stroke Improvements". That *should* help. For my case, the classes conflicts with my school schedule, hence why I went to someone else. 4 weeks for $75 with homework and email access is not bad of a price. Look around the city, ask on NYC boards and see if there's something that's a bit cheaper. If you're looking to go faster, be better swimmer, etc...I suggest you to try to find a Tri Coach (and that's way out of my league). |

Master 1539 Sin City | Subject: RE: SWBKRUN- Miles and Miles ahead!!!! CLOSED tahrens - 2010-01-13 10:22 AM DJ - MY DOG IS NAMED HOBBS!!!! Gotta love Calvin and Hobbs!! Cat is named Guiness - ha ha ha. Did you forget the 'e' ? *winks* That's exactly why I named my cat Hobbes, after Calvin and Hobbes (and oh yeah, I have the 25lb Special edition books!). He was actually the very first cat that *I* named! All the other cats I had before him was already given a name due to adoptions or my mom named them. He's not an orange tiger...but Buff color (pinkish-peach hue). Edited by CyborgQueen 2010-01-13 5:27 PM |

Remember the guy I told you about who while drunk wanted me to be his Gillian for his first Sprint? Well he emailed me his first three run workouts today. He is actually starting to train... Totally thrilled for him. 2. Remember my friend Bob? He is back home after brain surgery, walking and talking normally. 3. My swimming lesson resulted in my first ever compliment from my coach in the 7 months we have worked together. I had to ask him if he was just trying to make me feel good since I have been down in the dumps about running. Nope. Now if I could only get my running back in action life would be perfect. |
