 1966     Baltimore, Maryland |  Subject: RE: Beer Drinker's Appreciation Society--Always OpenOriginally posted by jmhpsu93 Originally posted by drfoodlove 1:45 trainer ride today (as I watched the Chargers beat the Ravens!) followed by a short 20’ brick run. Both felt pretty good. I just found out that I can't put my hub based powermeter on my 11 speed tri bike. So...I'm in the market for a new power meter (ouch!). Anyone have any insight? I'm thinking crank based, but don't have my heart set yet. Thoughts on left only? It is so much more economical. Two things: RE: Chargers/Ravens - I'm not talking to you! RE: hub-based PM...why not? 10 speed only hub? I'm also not talking to you! That game was hard to watch... |

Member 2834 Carbondale, Illinois | Subject: RE: Beer Drinker's Appreciation Society--Always Open Sorry Baltimore crew—my wife was born in SD and grew up a Chargers fan. I just adopted them when we got together because I really didn’t have a team after the rams left St. Louis. Hour trainer ride today doing 95% FTP intervals. Two weeks without a rest day is starting to take its toll. This was a rough workout. |

So now I'm at a Wawa 12 mi into a 24 mi ride. =) |

| 1966 Baltimore, Maryland | Subject: RE: Beer Drinker's Appreciation Society--Always Open Swim Squad* practice this morning was solid. Got in 2400 yds and felt relatively strong considering I haven't done much in weeks. Also had volleyball last night. Kind of hurt my hip but it seems to be better this morning. Feels good to be getting back into my routine! *Swim Squad is a group of my masters teammates who started swimming together when the pool at the gym that Mike and I belong to reopened. We started meeting as a group, and we became bigger than the masters program, so they gave us dedicated lanes and let us call it Swim Squad (we were confusing other members who thought we were the masters team). It's a member run practice so we welcome any new people but have 11 people who attend at least intermittently (but mostly regularly). |

| 228 | Subject: RE: Beer Drinker's Appreciation Society--Always Open @ Mike: I'm in Central FL, just outside Orlando. My idea of "cold" weather gear is wearing two long sleeves & a beanie. I hit a possum! I zigged, it zagged.. and thump! Poor thing wandered off into the bushes. Hope you feel better. @Nicole: Your swim squad sounds like fun. I did my first group swim this past weekend (only 3 of us) and it so much more fun than solo. |

I did my first group swim this past weekend (only 3 of us) and it so much more fun than solo. 1) I hope you and the possum are both okay! That would be scary! 2) Yes, solo swimming is definitely not nearly as fun! And I get such a better workout in when I'm swimming with others. By myself I am lazy  |

Member 2834 Carbondale, Illinois | Subject: RE: Beer Drinker's Appreciation Society--Always Open Welcome Sappho! Patriots fan? I’m not so sure about that! Especially since they’re playing my chargers this weekend! I got up early and went for a run this morning. I’ve been in bed sick as a dog for the last two days. This run was too soon!!! Should have stayed in bed asleep for an extra hour. It was awful. So much snot. |

Expert 4632 Middle River, Maryland Silver member | Subject: RE: Beer Drinker's Appreciation Society--Always Open Still have the cold from hell here, it has now moved to my head. I've slept about 8 hours total the last three nights. Haven't been this ill in years. OK, pity party over. Staying off the exercise equipment for the time being until this heads the other way. |

| 1966 Baltimore, Maryland | Subject: RE: Beer Drinker's Appreciation Society--Always Open Went to bed way too late last night and missed swim squad this morning. Only one person showed...#fail. Going to the PA farm show early tomorrow morning and will be eating wonderfully horrible food all day tomorrow (milkshakes, fried cheese, fried veggies, etc), but plan on going to masters practice Saturday morning to burn it all off! |

lol! Actually I would love to visit Baltimore as my favourite author, Anne Tyler, is from there and sets most of her books there. Also I've thought of another reason I can't help being a pats fan - Liverpool FC are owned by the owners of the Red Sox. If you are bean town, you are bean town into the NFL! Not for ice hockey though as I adore penguins so I lurch east to Philly then!
Exciting beer news this w/e i will be trying to new ales called Pale Brummie and Golden Brummie
I will report back! |

Regular 1532 Auckland, North Island | Subject: RE: Beer Drinker's Appreciation Society--Always Open NAME: Bullfrog/Andrew STORY: I'm Andrew, from New Zealand, I lost weight and did something athletic (Half Marathon) for the first time in 2009, my weight and fitness levels have yo-yoed up and down since then. Currently not at a good level for either. Over the years I've done a dozen sprint Tris, 1 Oly, 3 70.3s and 1 full Ironman. I was a previous member of this group 2 years ago, in the build up to my Ironman. But fatherhood, and the lack of free time for training caused me to drift away. Well, over Christmas Mrs Bullfrog asked if I wanted to do another Ironman before we think about baby number 2. And you can't say no when your spouse asks a question like that, so here I am, back again. It's a long term plan, but very lightly penciled in is IronmanNZ in March 2020. We will be making a call whether or not to go for it around the middle of the year, depending on how my fitness/weight can improve. FAMILY STATUS: Married with a spoiled dog, and an 18 month old boy CURRENT TRAINING: Spent the last year and a half (since our Son was born) running with the dog (and sometimes baby in stroller), only casually, when life allowed, Haven't rode my bike or swum since the little monster was born. A run focus will continue for at least the first 1/2 of the year, but am now following a training program and looking to be more consistent and make some decent gains. Also plan to add 1 or 2 weekly swims and some bike commuting to ease myself back into multi sport mode. THIS YEAR'S RACES: Currently booked and paid for: 10 February, Coatsville Half Marathon 17 March, Maraetai Half Marathon 14 April, Waterfront Half Marathon 30 June, Wellington Half Marathon Probably 1 or 2 more HM's to be added, and maybe a sprint Tri at the end of the year. UPCOMING YEAR'S GOALS: Lose 35+kg, Set a Half Marathon PB, Get fit enough to begin Ironman training by the end of the year, don't spend too long injured. WEIGHTLOSS: Probably only 100lbs to lose... No seriously. |

Member 2834 Carbondale, Illinois | Subject: RE: Beer Drinker's Appreciation Society--Always Open Welcome back, Andrew!! Scheduled off day for me. Still sick, so I need it. Currently laying in bed debating the usefulness of getting up and trying to do some housework. Sleep might win though. |

| 228 | Subject: RE: Beer Drinker's Appreciation Society--Always Open Hey welcome Andrew & anyone else I've missed. Been kinda lazy this week. I've kept up my lunch runs but haven't been doing much else. Planning to bike commute to work tomorrow morning to finish up a couple things that didn't get done this week, about 20 mi round trip, can easily extend to 25. |

| 1941 , Vermont | Subject: RE: Beer Drinker's Appreciation Society--Always Open Hello! Welcome Riles! Well, got a couple of short workouts in on Monday and Tuesday before work. Wednesday I had to ride along on a delivery truck and deliver packages all day. Let me tell you, that’s no joke. Those folks just their butts. I am calling that a workout for Wednesday. Wow. Thursday we had class all day and a working dinner that night and I am whipped. Had class today and too tired to hit the gym this morning from a crazy week. Slept in to 06:00. They’re getting a few inches of snow here in Louisville tomorrow and funny thing is, when classmates saw my VT license plates and studded snow tires, I have suddenly become the class best friend.. lots of driving folks around to various appointments tomorrow since apparently no one here knows how to drive in snow. ?? Hoping to get some kind of trainer ride in after that in the afternoon. |
