Triple D's Flying for FREEDOM in July

[Kira G.]

Thanks SamSam!! I'm having a great day, and heading out shortly for a special dinner with my husband.

As for my training in July: I did do one short run in London, but I think all the walking I was doing in inadequate shoes created a few problems for me since my back felt awful. So I changed shoes and skipped running in Paris. I did my first post-vacation run today, and it went really well, so I think I'm back on track.

Miles and minutes:
Miles - 6.5
Minutes - 90

I will be heading to Maine on Saturday, but will have internet there so I'll be in touch. It's a relaxing vacation, so should have plenty of time for training (it's also an awesome place to run!).

I'm thinking of you Bryan, and hope that you are doing the best you can under the circumstances.

Cheers

Hello 3D's!, Happy Tuesday! Halfway thru the month, almost, and still no 90 degree days here yet.

Happy Birthday, Kira.

Here is my miles and time for the week of the 8th to the 14th, 11 hours, 15 minutes, and 190 miles. All biking, but I have to do some running soon, there is a 5K race coming up soon, and I would like to do a bit of running before I do it.

Has anyone seen the band Galactica? I just saw them for the first time last Saturday, and they were amazing! The beer helped too......

Have a good week, everyone!

Miles, minutes for week ending 7-14 (all training):
475 minutes 31 miles

Hey Triple D's! It looks like we are having yet another great week of training. Awesome job everyone. Ahoff Seriously dude! 190 miles!!! That makes my backside hurt just thinking about it. That's incredible.

Kira Thank you for the thoughts. I am glad that you have had a great birthday and some good vacation trips. I am jealous. I want to go somewhere.

As for me, another fun week at home and work. Still got some quality training in but not as much as I would like. Good news is that the manager said today that it looks like that I am adding more muscle to my frame and loosing more bodyfat. I am going to give it just a little more time and then I am going to have my levels checked again. I have a personal goal of gettting down to single digits at least once. That will make me very happy.

Totals for this week:

Miles - 90
Hours - 11.75

Tomorrow is Wednesday! HUMP day is here! YAY!! Wait. I am on vacation. BOO!! That means it is getting closer to me to have to go back to work. Waaaahh! Seriously though, I do hope that everyone has a great week. Kira, have a safe trip!

Hey Triple D's, It's been beautiful weather here in the middle of the country. Very unusual for July and I've been enjoying it immensely. Being able to wog outside instead of on the dreadmill is heavenly.

Hi, gang!!

Well, I am back from one vacation and heading out on another, followed by a work trip. I am starting to wonder why I even have a house, I'm on the road so much!


Everyone is doing great!

Augie....just be happy with your weather. It has hit 100 or more over 30 days so far this year here in central TX. The good thing is, I'm travelling a lot and don't get too exposed to the heat. But the bad thing is, I am not acclimated at all, so my workouts at home are suffering.

Dave...here is the link to the spreadsheet--maybe try again? You should be able to view it, but not post to it. (yeah, I'm a control freak). It's not a pretty spreadsheet, but it's there. If you want a colored stripe for your listing, let me know what color.

http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AhkQlDatUiUqcHk4X1UxVHMxZnFBb2xUM3F4elFmS0E&hl=en

As for me...just got back from a beautiful bike trip in Oregon...we rode from outside of Ashland to Klamath Falls; from there to Crater Lake; rode the Rim Road around the Lake; then rode from Crescent to Bend. Total riding 224 miles, with over 15,000 feet of climbing. That's more than I've been on the bike any given month this year, I think!

Since the trip crossed our reporting weeks, this is what I have:

July 8-14:
swim 2 miles/2:00
bike: 145.4 miles/12:15 (don't work out the averages...I'm slow on the uphills!)
hike: 2.2 miles/:45

Total: 149.6 miles/ 15 hours

July 15--21:
bike: 78.7 miles/ 5:35 hours
run: 3.3 miles/ 1:25 hours

total: 85 miles/ 7 hours

Hope everyone is staying cool, and maybe thinking about racing season coming up! Time to start building and training!

PS: How do you access the spreadsheet ?? Tells me I don't have permission.

Dave

Click on the link, don't copy and paste what's in the posts (Bryan's and mine)...the DIS shortens the link and adds "..." in the middle that really isn't part of the URL.
If that doesn't work, let me know, and I'll see what I can do.

heading out of town, but should be back around to check on everyone early next week, if not sooner (depends on access and how busy I am with the family)

July 14-20:
11.9.8miles (includes doubling for a 5k ran!)
178mins

Hi #D's! Hope everyone's summer is going well. I am happy with the weather, Betsy, after the wet June we had any sunshine is great!

Here are my hours for last week, 12 hours 15 minutes, and 205 miles. I have been doing a lot of road riding lately, the group I go with are quite fast. And there was the ride I took to the winery on Sunday that was very nice. Though I stuck with the beer they were serving. And my return time was a bit slower.....

Have a good week!

Augie

 

[AUdisneyDad]

My totals for the week of July 15 - July 21 were

By the way congrats to everyone that had great weeks on the bike

What happened to the time? I can't believe that I am so far behind on my posting. I am sorry Betsy!! Very sorry! This week has been crazy since going back to work. We had one associate quit and one got fired for stealing. This, of course, added to my stress levels for the week but that is ok. It also gave me a reason to focus on time at the gym to help release that stress. (I love my workouts!) So here are my totals.

Miles - 85
Time - 12.25 (I cut the yard for 6 hours more for a friend of mine that needed some help. Don't know if you want to add the time or not. Either way, it's ok.)

It looks like everyone has been having another great week. I can't believe it is already the last week of the month. We are almost to August. What has happened to the year? Seems like it is flying by!! Next thing we know, everyone will descend to WDW for Marathon Weekend. This is just crazy.

Well, I hope everyone has a fantastic week. Look forward to hearing how everyone did for the month.

Have a GREAT weekend everyone!
Bryan
