Champion 9600 Fountain Hills, AZ | Subject: RE: Ironman USA Lake Placid : Official Thread 248 miles even though I am not playing.  I doubt I'll make 600 miles as I have a race in 2 weeks so I will loose a long weekend ride. |

Master 3546  Millersville, MD | Subject: RE: Ironman USA Lake Placid : Official Thread Add me to the list of IMLP2010 participants who had a breakthrough race yesterday. For me it was the cherry blossom 10 miler. First real race I have done in over a year. First one I've been completely prepared for in over 2 years. I ran a lot of miles over the winter, and lost a lot of pounds, and was able to run in 68:02. My very ambitious (for me) goal was 70 mins... and I just felt good and was able to execute well and was willing to be pretty uncomfortable by mile 7 and THEN turn on the hurt for the last 3 miles. This weekend = 10 miles @ 6:48 pace. previous 13.1 PR = 8:08 pace previous 10K PR = 7:48 pace. I literally have not been this fast since high school... and even then I wasn't this fast for 10 miles (it was all cross country races). Like Fred, I broke my 5K/10K/10mile PRs* (but I'm only counting the offical 10 mile one) in the race. Congrats to Fred, Traci, Ryan, and Albert as well! * technically, I've run a faster 5K then my 19 minute split for the last 3 miles yesterday (don't know what my 3.1 split was)... but not as an adult.

| Veteran 233 Madison, New Jersey | Subject: RE: Ironman USA Lake Placid : Official Thread Josh you killed it! Congratulations to Fred, Traci and Ryan. I see that we have one competitive group on this thread. I am looking forward to hearing race results throughout the season. Maybe we should try to make a PR competition? Let's see who can have the most PR's in a season. Or perhaps we should compete with another IM thread. LP Thread vs Louisville, which thread can produce the most PR's in the season. That might be a fun challenge. |

| Veteran 215 | Subject: RE: Ironman USA Lake Placid : Official Thread While we are talkin PRs, I might as well throw mine out there. I PRed my half marathon this weekend with 1:56:07. Only by a few seconds but it has taken me a year and a half to get back under 2 hrs after an injury. It was a hilly course too. I was so thrilled. I have worked hard on my running this winter trying to get comfortable being uncomfortable. I also think it has something to do with starting to run with Newtons. Absolutely love them! Running faster at a lower HR and my legs really aren't even that sore today. |

| Expert 1023 Malvern, England | Subject: RE: Ironman USA Lake Placid : Official Thread Wow, race season (if only running) has definitely started. Congratulations to all who raced - even more results seem to be coming in! Pennstate I know how you feel about the days after a race. I had one a few weekends ago at the very end of a recovery week - and the result after the race was that the whole next week felt hard because I was still sore from the race! I will beat this oldness though (in body and mind if not in chronological terms) |

Certainly was a great weekend for all the racers in the LP thread! Congrats to everyone Ryan you really killed it at your race (seinfeld reference, think Banya ) this weekend. How's your biking and swiming coming along ?Feeling stronger on the bike since I started riding outside again, but (like I'm sure others are feeling) I'm itching to get some of those epic rides under my belt for some more confidence. Right now, rides over 80 miles are not something I'm going into thinking, "I'm gonna rock this." Heh, it's more like, "I'm gonna survive this." Swimming is like golf, occasionally it's great, most of the time it sucks. Can't wait to start OWS though. Edited by yeats 2010-04-12 3:14 PM |

| Champion 19812 MA | Subject: RE: Ironman USA Lake Placid : Official Thread So many great races for many of you guys this weekend! Congrats to all of you and especially cool is how many PBs set. The IMLP BT crew is going to be quite impressive this year...besides fast, you all are very supportive and encouraging of each other. I wish I could play the 600 mile month but I'm doing a 70.3 in 2 weeks which takes a big chunk out of training. |

| Expert 1244 New York | Subject: RE: Ironman USA Lake Placid : Official Thread So, I'm mostly doing fig newmans now for nutrition on the bike, though I always used to use GU Gels and may supplement with them. Does anyone use the figs for actual race day? I was calculating how many I'd need to carry with me, and it seemed a little crazy. Also, can you buy GE powder? I can't find it anywhere at the usual stores (Vitamin Shoppe, GNC, etc.). It's very frustrating, because I'd like to start training with it! |
