February Totals (Page 2)

Continuing to build base for HIM in May and possibly 2 more later in the season.

That's insane.

Plus two long weekends skiing to keep my wife and kids happy.

ETA: the skiing and time with family kept me happy, too.

First moth ever over 100 miles run!

Excellent -- congrats!

100 mile months are great.  Good job!!

Second month training for IM in September (my first).

I'm having a great start at 2012.  Can't wait for some warmer weather so I can crank up the bike time.

First HIM training month really:

Bike     10hrs 28mins    123k3km (no mileage for the Cycleops)

Run      9hrs  17mins     68.75km

Swim   12hrs 17mins     29450m!!!!

i am very impressed with that swim total!

March promises to be bigger!

Bike:  18.29 Mi - 1h 00m 
Run:  45.22 Mi - 7h 16m 17s 
Strength:  6h 30m 

Was hoping for a big number this month but my knee is not agreeing with me right now. However, I am 5 lbs closer to race weight.

Eh....had ITBS flare up the last 8 days of the month...can maybe run by weekend...lots of foam in my life right now.

I had a sick week and the pool closed for a bit, that threw my numbers off:

S:  15700.00 M - 6h 40m 10s
B:  190.10 Mi - 12h 40m
R:  150.24 Mi - 24h 33m 37s

Swim: 22,950 yds (Missed a lot due to minor sicknesses)

Bike: 680 miles33:19:00 (all on trainer)

Run: 215 miles27:26:00 (treadmill/outdoor split)

Able to really pick it up with run volume. Also did lots of hills (treadmill & outside) and seem to be getting the hang of intensity. Bike is down some, but intensity is up quite a bit which has actually increased progress. Did manage to add some volume back in last week.

 Getting that extra day in February pushed my running over 10 hours.  I need every extra day the calendar gives me.

Run focused

Bike: 15h35m05s (448.33 km but this is probably not accurate--mix of road and stationary)

Run 15h9m38s (don't usually track distance)

Swim 10h3m2s   33,000mm

Fairly solid, included a much lighter recovery week as I raced two weeks ago.  Next week will be a wash with recovery from race and a three-day school trip, then hope to buckle down to more "basic training" for HIM in June.

Need to stop the pool-avoidance

One of my best months ever. I logged more hours training than in any other month prior. I lost about 10 total pounds over the month, and had a mix of S/B/R that isn't as common. Run focused this month as training for my first marathon in mid March, though probably not quite ready yet. Anyway the totals are:

S - 4500 yards - 1h 41m 25s

B - 39m - 2h 18m 33s

R - 121.52m - 18h 49m 33s

elliptical training - (running substitute when too ugly to run outside) - 3 hours

almost 26 total hours of training for 29 days. I'm pretty happy about that. Will only increase as the weather gets nice.
