<p>Good morning all.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My first post Ironman workout, if you want to call it that, 1.25 mile walk. I feel great and wanted to go for a run, but I know better.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Happy training everyone!</p>

<p>You know you are a triathlete when the following seems perfectly normal-- Not wanting to deal with stupid traffic this morning I had driven to the track for a run.  I had just returned home and was still sitting in the van.  The front door was open and I could see son1 putting on his running shoes.  Son1 then exploded out the front door, jumped over the flowerbed, and headed up the street.  Oh, a B/R brick.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Still plugging along here.  Next weekend in Hancock Hundred.  I have to go up on Thursday to take Grandma to the doctor.  Hey, son1, what 'cha think about this--stay overnight, ride home Friday, ride back to Grandma's Saturday, then do HHH.  Sounds good to him, except he wants to ride up Thursday, then ride back home on Monday.  I don't know where the kid gets it.  The following weekend is my last Oly of the season.  I need only finish to win the championship.  Then yesterday, I registered for the Columbus Marathon.  Main goal is to run a good race, which I haven't done in several years.  Time goal is 3:59:59.  We'll have to see how the rest of my training goes.</p>

<p>4bmom, it's great you can go into the race this weekend only needing to finish.  Sit back and enjoy, kind of like Lance in Paris but without the drinks.</p>

<p>5 mile run this morning from the Y.  It stinks that it is staying darker longer and the vest is back to being standard equipment.  Saw some storm damage but nothing major.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>have a great day</p>

<p>30 minute run with 5 x :20s at run fast pace with a walk back and 30 hops on the right foot, 30 hops on left, then repeat.  Suppose to build leg strength/foot speed.  An hour trainer ride later, spin - ups.  Later peeps!</p>

<p>Easy 2.08 mile run in HR zone 2.<br><br>
We lost power again yesterday evening at ~7:45pm, but it came back on today at ~1:30pm. I'm pretty sure they've fixed the issue in the neighborhood, but I still feel I need to be prepared for the power to go out again!</p>

<p>Hello all.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I ran this morning, but didn't have time to post until now. Running around in the dark in a strange city is an adventure. Decent run, but kept a slow pace because I couldn't see that well. Long day at work after that and it promises to be a long day tomorrow as well.</p>

<p>For those who have been terribly affected by the Irene, my heart goes out to you.  Wish you the things would get better soon.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Rode MTB to the nearby state park - haven't ridden it for a month (?) - with DH.  Rode well though I didn't push much (knowing I would be doing a run speed work later).  Just 30sec. slower than my best time there.  1:15 ride.</p>
<p>6mile run later, including 6x200m, 2x400m, 2x200m (w/equal distance of recovery).  Felt good.  I have resumed training for two half marathons (probably Towpath & Cleveland Classic). </p>

<p>Morning: yesterday was the cross country 5k race I did last week, and I remembered why I dont' really like rocky trail/hills. I slightly rolled my ankle, but it will be ok in  a day or two.</p>

<p>Headed out for 5 and ended up with 3 because I ran out of daylight and I was too stubborn to get on the treadmill...mid week runs that get shortened are really going to come back and bite me around mile 20 in October...</p>
