I don't think I've posted my numbers for June 1-7 yet...

hours: 4.57
miles: 22.0

Summer is incredibly busy for us, and we are out of town frequently. So far I've been able to keep up with my running. It seems to be going well--still aiming for the 10K race on July 6. I hemmed my WISH shirt the other day. It was WAY too long (sitting mid-thigh and I'm tall), so I took about 6 inches off, and now it's great!

Not much biking this week due to time in Hershey and Boston. I love vaction time but nice to be home on my normal routes. When I was running in Hershey ran on a major road in the berm and feared for my life from the trucks screaming by. Great story when I was in Boston DS asked me what if you get lost on your runs there are so many streets that look the same. Being the manly dad I tell him don't worry I can always figure out how to get back. Well guess what manly dad did got lost running all the brownstone on the side streets look the same. I have to ask directions from people walking their dogs. So a 7 mile run turns into a 9 mile run at least the was some value for my ego. The next two days ran with a pocket map just in case.

Week of June 9-15

Running 54 miles 10 hours

Biking 60 miles 3.5 hours

Quick Drive-by for hours/miles June 8-14

hours: 3.9
miles: 18.9

Still running, still busy. Did 7 miles outside for the first time yesterday (first time to do 7 miles, and first time to do a long run outside). I really enjoyed it.

 

[AmyBeth68]

Hi Team...another drive-by for me...

June 9-June 15:
Miles: 51
Hours: 11.5

Doing a combo of 3 days spin or biking and 3 days run plus lots of pilates . Runs are going well...but not fast by any means! The good news is that I'm feeling healthy and managing my teaching schedule just fine.

Happy training...everyone is doing a great job...

Steve, Scott and Rich:

Thanks for the numbers everybody, I have them in the master book. These data take us over 7000 miles as a group, the 2nd team to cross that line.

Congratulations to all.

Rich

Yes, about those Boston streets, don't feel bad. We've lived 12 miles west of downtown Boston for 11 years now, and I'm ashamed to say I know the downtowns of many US and European cities pretty well, but Boston is not one of them. The streets do all look alike, and most of them don't have street signs ("if you lived here, you'd know where you were"). Everytime I go into the city it is an adventure.

And the suburban towns are just as bad. The "major" road through Wellesley is Route 16, which precisely follows the thousand year old Indian trace from down to Connecticut. All of our streets wander around pretty randomly.

Best to all
Craig

This was a crazy week of training. Running was normal as always but I spent a lot of time on the bike and a lot of time taking Pilates classes. PLUS...I'm so excited to say...I am officially an Spin Instructor now after a LONG day of training. Fully certified and ready to teach (okay...confession is that I've been teaching for 2 week but now I'm totally legit!).

Have a great weekend everyone.

[RedDragon]

Hi everyone! Remember me? I'm RedDragon. It's nice to see you guys again. What with 10 days vacation then LTO and WTO and everything else takes over, I've not posted in countless days. However, I've been exercising and since I sleep with the coach, Calcio, I've just told him my numbers rather than posting them. I've been here in absentia.

I've been very unmotivated, but I did run 4 miles yesterday. I joined a new gym a couple months ago and they have some muscle conditioning classes on the weekend which I took advantage of today. So I'm still doing stuff, but just no motivation.

I hope everyone has had a lot more up-and-at-'em then I have!

 

[swim-mom]

AmyBeth - OMG, those miles are amazing I can't imagine ever hitting that number.

I have a question, please ---

I just purchased an elliptical, and I just started out with it, BUT how do I post it? My machine does not show distance, but reps.......so do I just keep adding to the time and that is it?

I am hoping that it will help me workout more, because the heat is not my friend right now

 

[ScoJo15]

OH WOW...I messed up..

UPDATED numbers for June 15-June 21, I put the wrong miles in:

Hours: 13.5
Miles: 97

Nice work!! Couldn't keep up with you this week

June 15-21
Hours: 7.75
Miles: 86.5

 

[AmyBeth68]

swim-mom: Congrats on the elliptical. I'd put miles in...just base it on your running/walking pace since typically we do the elliptical at a similar pace. So...if it normally takes you 45 minutes to run 3 miles....if you are on the elliptical for 45 minutes I'd call that 3 miles. Everyone else on here gets to count their elliptical time so you should be no different IMO .

good luck and thank you for the kind words .

 

[twoWDWfools]

Hey everyone! Actually getting some real numbers again.

June 15-21

Did my first duathlon yesterday (relay with Patrick). Will do a race report later but it is something we'll definitely do again. I just really need to work on hills.....

Amy

I assume you didn't have enough to do already, so you got your spin certification? Wow, you are an activity machine. You'll be fitter than all of us on the 2 Goofy days in January. Perhaps we'll bump into each other on the course both days. It always lifts my spirits to see friends on the course. Last January Steve and I hit the half marathon split on Sunday about 15 seconds apart. Steve passed me about 1/4 mile past this point, and somehow we didn't notice each other. Too weird and disappointing as well.

Liz

It's good to hear your injury is healing well, allowing you to get out there successfully. Good for you and Patrick.

Ryley

The Boardwalk area is one of my favorite runs. 1 loop around Cresent Lake, then down the path along the canal to the Studios, continue around the end of the turning basin, stay right along the fence, all the way to where the boat dock hits the sidewalk, then turn around and go back to where the Crescent Lake path intersects the walkway by Atlantic Dance, and you've done 2.33 miles. The sights, sounds, and smells of this run are a lot of fun. Enjoy yourself.

Swim Mom

Amy tells it true. As you get more experienced in your training you'll know what level of effort translates into distance and pace. If you run 1 mile in 12 minutes, and feel you are exerting the same effort on the eliptical for 12 minutes, absolutely call that the equivalent to 1 mile of running.

I seem to be getting my fitness back, now I just need to drop the pounds that got on the plane with me in Paris. Each workout is a bit easier and quicker than the prior one, and the weight work has done wonders for the "feel" of my legs. It's just amazing what the weight room does for strength and rhythm when I run. My runs so far have all been on the track, so I'd know precisely how fast I was going, and could judge my level of effort. Yesterday I felt a lot stronger, so I took off at a tempo that felt quickish and easy, 9:25 per mile. The first 5K of this was really effortless, but at 4 miles it got a lot harder. I discovered I have work to do before I can carry a pace like that for any distance, but it was encouraging to feel almost normal again. I need to get back on the trails, slow down, and stretch the distances.

Best
Craig
