Whips, Cattle Prods & Tiaras (Four-Is-More Challenge) (Page 95)

got another climb in. It was short due to the discovery of large blisters on my toes it makes climbing very painful. So I went home after an hour and now am off for a ride to school then a swim at school, then a ride home after classes. After that I hope to get in another swim and that will make my bike 110% I have climbing and runs and swims for tomorrow!

Hi Guys!! I got the workout in this morning so I thought I would get the post workout done this afternoon.....

A GREAT

DAY!!!

w00t! w00t!

I am now at 100%.

Dear WCPTs,

You have one more day to reach ALL your goals.

In the immortal words of Nike:

JUST DO IT.

But, if you need additional motivation:

Yikes!  A gun shaped taser.  I am now officially afraid.

We were only 0.1% ahead yesterday. I'm pulling out the big tasers now.

Still not feeling well, but I made more progress today. Should be 100% in all 4 by end of day tomorrow. Ugh. I hope this stomach bug crap goes away soon, it makes training miserable.

Yikes... sorry to hear, Blake.  Feel better.

Ew. Stomach bugs are the WORST. Hope you feel better soon!

Thanks everyone!! I am totally psyched about the interview, can hardly think of anything else. I am completely riding high on the tone in the guy's voice when he said, "We were very impressed with your resume."

Of course, this means I am completely ignoring a very stressful, important, and horrid meeting in the morning. First time I've seen my former spouse in almost 15 months, essentially since I walked out. *sigh* I'm gonna be thinking of you guys (and how I can tri now that I've left that dump of a marriage) to get me through it.

Travis, big congrats on the 100-mile month! That's awesome!

I remember when I was doing 100-mile months - when my drive to work was only 5 miles! LOL!

Joe, I thought of you the other day - just scored some new climbing shoes. I'm pretty psyched. They are really indoor shoes (Boreal Fusion soles), but I'm gonna use them on the little crag down the road until the snow drives me inside. My climbing partner comes back after a month away, yay!

Blake, ick. You had an awesome start to the month, but it seems like the back end whooped you pretty good. Hope you recover soon!

Ugh, that sounds utterly icky. I guess there is something to be said for gritting your teeth and doing it. Still, hope you can get back into the groove and cruise a bit.

Well, I was getting...I don't know how to say it, but uncomfortable seems to fit better than sore. I felt weaker each time I did it, not stronger. It didn't exactly hurt, I just couldn't do them as well. I was gritting my teeth just to get through the last few. And the two real ones were getting crappier and crappier.

And yeah, two recovery days a week. I've been wondering if maybe I would be better off doing twice as many half as often - so doing 20 every two hours rather than 10 every hour? Or maybe having M-W-F be bigger days with T-Th lighter days? I need a training plan for my pushups! LOL!!

So far, backing down to 80+8 is MUCH more comfortable. I feel like I'm engaging my core again rather than doing anything I could to get through them. Maybe I just ramped up too fast.

Thanks!

Yay!!!
