MARCHing Warriors!!!

[bubba73]

Hello Warriors!!!! Just me again wanting to come by and congratulate you all on such a fantastic February! Almost 1200 miles in the first month!! Way to go Team!!

I know you already have a title for the team, Walt's Warriors, but I have one more word for you that I think fits for this team and it also starts with the letter "W". One of the best words I can think of to describe all of you, WINNER!!!!

Keep it up gang!
Bryan

Sarah Rose, good luck with the decision. I know it is not an easy one.

Amy, good job on the event. Sorry about the bad things, and glad you finished. I think running in 50 deg rain would leave me cold to the bone too.

Very cold here so I've not got outside to do much of anything.

 

[ImMarcik]

Bryan that was sweet, thanks!

Amy great report!

Everyone going to the Princess, good luck and have a blast.

Great job getting out there Jim! I love running in the rain, but I totally bailed last night. This storm is a lot colder than what we normally get and I just couldn't convince myself that 5 miles soaking wet in the cold was a good idea. The 13 miler on Sunday in the rain was fun because it was warm.

But I did go to the gym. There is no way I could keep myself on a treadmill for 5 miles, so I only did 2.5 on the treadmill and then did the last 2.5 on the crossramp. So at least I got my miles in!

I wish I was headed to WDW to be a princess with you Warriors! Have a great time!!!

Happy Windy Wednesday Warriors!!!!

Today i managed to get in a 15.6 mile bike ride (truncated somewhat by really heavy winds) followed by a 5.1 mile run.

Work tomorrow. No cardio, maybe some weights if time permits........

 

[MiaBanda]

Hey team!

3.2 miles for me tonight. Only a week from Sunday 'til my 1/2!

 

[Sarah_Rose]

Hey Warriors:

I'm having a bit of a truncated week, as I'm heading to Toronto tomorrow until Sunday, to try to get some wedding stuff done (or just to give it the finger and cancel it all). I did get 3 miles of speedwork in today - I upped my marathon finish time goal, which means that my intervals are now down to an 8 minute mile.... which is pretty fast when you're 5'2"! It felt like a good workout! But, the next few days are going to be CRAZY, so there will be no running happening. Luckily, I planned it that this would be a light week, anyway.

Well, I'm off to bed so that I can get up in less than 6 hours (at 4:30) to go to the airport. Have a great weekend, Warriors, and good luck to everyone running races this weekend!

 

[ImMarcik]

I have a question. How much do you workout while on vacation? I have 2 planned this year, I doubt I workout any while in Vegas, but I am going to be at Disney for 9 days, I doubt I should go that long without some cardio?

 

[dsnyfan21]

OK, I'm here!!!!!!!! Stood on Main Street for a few min and just breathed it all in while the end of the parade went by.
Hangin with Stacey, Brandie, Kim and Liz!! The 5 amigas!!.

Here is a photo of the door at OKW

Yay! Tracy. Glad you made it there. Great door decoration. I love it!

Go Warrior Princesses! Have a great time.

It was a beautiful day in the neighborhood here. I took Kirby dog for his 2 mile walk. He and I went a bit faster than we have been and he seemed to hold up well. Then I got DH and took him to PT. While he was having his session I did not go in with him this time. I went outside on the path and did 3 miles in the wonderful weather. I loved being out in it even if it was a bit windy.

I'll probably play with something else tonight. Tomorrow is annual physical.Oh joy.

Glad you got there Tracy!! Love your door!

Best of Luck to all our Warrior Princesses!!!!

To all the Warrior Princess have fun and I wish you all a safe and magical journey.

WOO HOO Tracy and all who are running the Princess!

Today I got in my final workout before the tri on Sunday.

Yesterday = 12 mile bike plus some light stretching; 50 minutes
Today = 4.25 mile run, stretching and strength; 1 hour

Now I just hang out for two days waiting....

 

[Mooshu]

Love the door decorations! Have a fun time at WDW and I hope you PR!

Checking in while I'm on vacation....Today I missed Jeff at the park and had to run by myself, but we ended up meeting up after his run and going to dinner with another friend of ours.

I ran for about 45 minutes around the beach park..Jeff will probably post some pictures...until I saw a few friends walking the opposite way, so i turned around and started walking with them. All together I was out there for 1 hour. I'm not sure how many miles I ran, as I didn't have my garmin or my ipod with me today.

 

[mkymsehi]

I did a slow jog of 7 miles with a friend who runs, well SLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOW. Got the miles in, that's all that counts today.

Notice how empty Hale Koa Beach is. Overcast, windy, and drizzling.

Marcia did a short jog on her own, and met up with me at the end of my run.

This is what it looked like at 6:30 pm, at Ala Moana Beach Park.

 

[bellaDisneydncr]

Oh, Jeff you're making me jealous haha

I can't complain too much though- it's actually nice here today!!! I got to walk/jog outside! It's 65 right now. It's a heat wave! I'm not sure of my mileage yet, I've got to figure it out- i didn't really follow roads. But I did a 25 minute workout. Good for today since I didn't do anything else this week. This musical is wearing me out already- and we haven't done much yet! Anyway- best of luck to all our Warrior Princesses this weekend!

Jeff, love the pics. Really.

I got out for just a mile. Took Kirby Dog and DH for DH's first outside stroll. Overcast and windy here, but warmest it's been in a long time!

 

[JimB.]

Happy Saturday Warriors!!

33.65 miles on the bike this morning. Would have topped out over 35, but had another frickin' flat. Haven't had 1 in a year, now 2 in a week!

But no worries. cuz' I got to wake my DS up & get him out of bed to come get me!!

For those running the princess, you 'll recognize me as the bike medic wearing the lime green shoelaces!!


See ya there!!

 

[3DisneyKids]

GOOD LUCK PRINCESS RUNNERS!

As for me, I am off to my TRI! Race report to follow!

 

[3DisneyKids]

I'M BACK!

I will give a full race report later, but I am done, I finished and I feel pretty good!

I ROCKED, and I mean ROCKED the swim! I was second out of the water and the first female out.

My transition from the swim to the bike was GREAT. First on the bike.

The ride was solid. I felt good about it. Not sure about my time yet, but pace seemed to be just under 20mph or so. Maybe 18 - 20?

The transition to the run SUCKED because a DUMB A$$ man elbowed me on the way to the start and I landed on my a$$. And I was really pissed. And it really rattled me. My run was, funny enough, my worst leg. I really wanted to run hard and fast, but I was out of breath. My legs had plenty of energy, but I just could not get enough air in. So my pace was a dismal 10:20.

Still, I am pleased overall for my first tri!

Oh, and by the way, I WON MY WAVE. First place for women in my wave! For overall age group results, I have to wait a few hours and call in.

Pics and full race report coming, but THANKS for the support!
