I am pleased to read Grace that you at least have a diagnosis and better understanding of why the things are the way they are.  That is huge, considering most people would have thrown in the towel, with that musch effort and diligence and little progress with weight loss.  I understand the importance of weight loss and body image/appearance, but also relish in the fact that through your continued effort, you are more fit!  Way to embrace that Athena and get out there and continue to fight the good fight!  Keep it up, stay positive, and ROCK ON missy! 

Side note... I looked at your pics on FB! hubba, hubba... lol! I would have never imagined you weigh what you say you weigh.  You look great!  You are fit and getting more fit and you ARE a Triathlete!

You should be even prouder of your accomplishments now than you were before!!!  To have a "handicap" like that and still achieve what you have says tons for the kind of person you are!!!  I know you will continue to rock it out!!!!!

That's AWESOME, Dew! That's the furthest I've ever run! Ahhh...just kidnapped my bike to bring to my new residence. It's so lovely outside today...maybe I can squeak in a ride?

March's general goal was to "reignite the triathlete fire" check.

Other goals included:
3/22-3/28:
Complete 80% of planned activity (86% completed)
Workout 5/7 days (worked out 6/7 days)
Wake up by 6AM 5/7 days (woke up 1/7 days)
Bed by 11PM 5/7 days (to bed by 11 2/7 days)

I also feel like I can safely say I've accomplished "work out  250 - 300 minutes on average" since the past two weeks have had me beyond 300 minutes. So, check.

Yes, I had a VERY late start this month, but here's to keeping the ball rolling.

I have registered for the Warrior Dash, but I still need to register for the triathlons ASAP!

Terps421 (Linda) is off to a good start at Boston - first 5K in 26:10, so far projecting a 3:41 finish . . .  that would be amazing!!

 

Go Linda!!!

Slowing down just a hair through 25K, but still at an 8:29 clip . . . projecting 3:42:XX.

Just awesome!  But now she's headed for the Newton Hills . . .  culminating in Heartbreak!!  Good luck!

And she's in at 3:48:42!!  Way to go!!! 

Here's some perspective.  Terps just finished the second half of one of the toughest marathons around faster than I will finish a standalone HM this Saturday.  Impressive . . .

 

Now, who's willing to bet she'll be up and running by dawn tomorrow??

Just thought I would bump this to see how everyyone is doing.  I know there were some issues down TX way but I am sure you will bounce back!!!

Nervous as hell here for my 1/2 in what is now less than 2 weeks.....training has suffered a little and I am drinking the "florida heat" koolaid lol!!!  I need to quit worrying so much about what they say and just go with the flow...at least that is what I keep telling myself 15 times a day .

Hope training is going well with everyone and I plan on checking this board more as the summer progresses.  Good luck!!!

Damn Dewey - apologies for not chiming in sooner, but congrats on the 1/2 iron - impressive stuff.  you planning on taking the rest of the summer easy - or do you have bigger goals on the horizon? Never mind - I'm an idiot - full Iron in Sept - wow!

What up gang!  Kinda quiet around these parts lately!

Hey JG... hope all is well!

Everyone still keeping the tri train rolling down them tracks!

I am working towards Buffal Springs Lake 70.3 in a couple weeks... Not where I'd like to be at this point, but all I can do is buckle down, get my mind right and face it head on!

I'll check back in from time to time, and drop inspires when I can!  Tri On!

Just checking in with everyone.  Been a rough start to the summer....a bunch of nagging little injuries.  Hope to get on the bike for a long ride this weekend and then back to running Monday.

Hope everyone is enjoying summer and training is going well.

I think I'm back...I rounded up the miles I'd been tracking all over the house on little pieces of paper and so I feel ready for training for Tri Season, 2011. I'm so proud of y'all and looking to continue a lifetime of fitness.  I've updated my goals and I feel they are quite reasonable. Here's to a happy, healthy end of 2010, beginning of 2011!
