What's your Least fav training (Page 2)

I thought it was the bike until I started finding nice locations (rural roads) with tons of "challenges" (dogs, hills, roadkill, etc) close to my house...now, it's definitely the swim

running is fun for me

The run!

I love the swim, and enjoy the bike, but at a big 6'7" I am not built for efficent running. I am gettent better at it, but the only running records that will ever fall for me will be personal ones. 

That's tough.  It used to be long bikes, but I have come to look forward to them.

If I'm hard pressed:  I don't like intense interval sessions (run).  The first few feel great to stretch the legs and really run.  But the last few, I'm cursing the plan, the author of the plan, myself for following the plan, and the any inocent bystander who is watching me suffer.....

But then I'm happy I did it...

thr run!. I want to enjoy it but i just suck at it so bad.

If I get better I think I'll enjoy it more.

I grew up swimming so that's no problem. and fyi - they make a waterproof case for the ipod series.

Running. Hands down, I hate it the most.  I went running on Saturday in the rain for the first time (in the past, I would either reschedule or use the treadmill).  When I got home, mrs gearboy asked me how I liked it.  I told her "I didn't hate it more than running in nice weather".

I started running years ago to manage weight, and got into triathlon because I hated to run, and it broke things up for me.

Did I mention how I hate to run?

For me its the running, never did much of  it for any distance. I am trying to do better. I have

lost some weight which should help and running more times per week. Still need to work on distance. 

I think when I first started out it was the swimming and it's still frustrating that I'm not getting much faster compared to the progress that I've made with the bike and the run. However I'd have to agree with a few of you that off days are the worst, I feel like I should be training or doing something athletic.
