17 mile AM bike to earn the peach for today.  Going for a mid day swim later.   

You must recover well.  I don't even want to think about running yet.  I might hop on the bike tonight but running.....maybe next week

I have an advantage over you.  This being my second one, I knew what my limits where.  Now last year I didn't run for 3 weeks after the Marathon.

Biking will help losen the legs as will walking.  Stretch, stretch and stretch some more.

Since there is less than a week left in October...anyone up for keeping the peach in November??  I'll start is a new thread, so post on that.  I hope to see you guys in peachy November, to keep the streak going

I took my daughter to the corn maze today... good times wandering through the corn endlessly looking for cartoon characters!

 Next week I am trying to get back on my regular workout schedule and am TOTALLY up for a peachy November! I really want a Peachy 4th quarter!

Sounds like a fun time with your daughter.  Go put your name on the Nov. thread and you are in!

First 50 mile bike ride today to get my Sunday peach.   Great ride! 

Ok so I feel like a total loser.  I hate not exercising on the weekends because that is when there is the most time available.

Friday I wasn't feeling so good.  Saturday, I felt miserable so I didn't exercise.  I could've at least did some stretching but I didn't.  Sunday, I was still recovering but did end up doing some stretching and a few strength exercises.

Wanted to add that my Sunday ride got me over the 1000 mile mark on the bike since starting in July!  Yay!   I know for those of you that have been around a while that's not much, but it's a number I was looking foward to reaching.   My goal is to reach 1585 by the end of the year which is the door-to-door distance from Las Vegas to our old neighboorhood in St. Louis, MO.    Based on the training plan for next year, I think I'll target having a total of 5000 miles on the bike by the end of 2009 (~3500 for the year).   That just seems amazing to me how fast the miles add up when bike training!  

Congrats on racking up the miles!!!

I think I'll join in on this one as well.   I'm skipping a couple other ones I'd like to do (PT, run) as I'm taking a full week off riding/biking after my last tri for the year on Nov 9th before starting the 20 week HIM program on the 17th.   Staying peachy will be good though as I can't manage not doing anything for a week. 

Well, you were the winner of that mental game. Well done.

And sometimes it's hard to tell the difference. Good listening.
