Hi Everyone! Welcome Ashley, Veronica and Chrissy!!!
This is a great team and everyone is very supportive; I'm betting you'll love it here!
Ok, catch up time: After the Marathon I took two weeks off to try to let my achilles tendon/IT band heal. I had that duathlon at
Disneyland looming but I was having some disturbing knee pain and buckling... I showed up for the duathlon and did it in a knee brace and with kinesio tape - but even that didn't help with the last run... oh well, I finished and had fun. That's all that matters, right?
Now I'm on total rest again! Seeing the ortho doc tomorrow, maybe he can tell me when I can run again... So I don't have much to add to the spreadsheet, but I will still try to get over there and put in the duathlon stuff. I'm afraid I'm not contributing much this month, and I completely forgot to put in anything last month
Sorry!
Suzann - all that bowling sounds exhausting. Does your hand hurt as well as your arm? I don't bowl much, but when I do my fingers and wrist hurt. Probably doing it all wrong!
Kirsty - Way to go on the training and the goal setting!! Goofy in 2010 - WOW! I'm thinking maybe 2011... I will be doing a full, a half and then the Princess 1/2 all in a month's time... assuming I can still walk!
Scott - thanks for updating the list!
Steve - you sure are getting a lot of trips to WDW... I'm jealous! Now that your folks have moved will you be going as often?
Ashley - I saw your posts on the Princess 1/2 thread... I'm just lurking for now as I haven't signed up yet, but I did it last year and enjoy seeing who is coming back... congrats on your 5k!
Veronica and Chrissy - same to you! Fast is a relative thing, you may think you're slow but I may think you're really fast... I try not to worry too much about the times.
I use Galloway, varying my intervals based on the run. LSD and long races I use a 1:1 ratio; weekday training runs and short races I go longer, usually 5:1 or 7:1. Just depends on how I'm feeling.
I'm off to bed, got to get up for that Dr.'s appt!
Its nice to be back... TTFN
