Humpty Dumpty

If only CW- X pants had existed when Humpty Dumpty fell off the wall, they could have put him back together with them!!
This is not an advertisement or paid solicitation. This is just my true feelings about these pants. I love them. They have been holding my legs together during both marathon trainings.
The other day I learned they make Tri shorts!!! How did I not know this? I scoured the internet to find them. Sold out on all sites. Then I found them on eBay - BINGO! I ordered 2 pair (slightly different). I wore them today for the first time. It was a 2 hr trainer ride inside. The new bike (hereto referred to as BMC) and I have been trying to get along in Aero position but it's been difficult (on my but!). So I put on my new CW -x Tri shorts and climbed aboard BMC. FABULOUS ride!! Love the shorts on my bike just as much as I love the pants running. Part of me dies wish they were capri's but other than that FABULOUS. Another great product from CW-X!!

Let's Celebrate & Turmoil

By
2 swims in one week! 2 swims in one week! This truly needs celebration since the boycotting of the pool had become out of control and I was convinced drowning was the only option I was going to have when I jumped into the cold Michigan water.  The hunger this week has been out of control! I cannot get enough food to feed the monster that my body is trying to create with all this training.  Here is the 2nd part of my blog. In orange I wrote Saturday, but Sunday has been much more eventful and calls for its own piece of the post.  3:40am- Alarm #1 3:45am-Alarm #2 I need 5 more minutes  3:50am- Alarm #3 I still need 5 more minutes  3:55am- ok I seriously have to get up  4:25am- I pull out of my driveway and head north bound to run 20-24 miles. Last long run before marathon.  5:02am- Oh s*** I think I have a flat tire 5:03am- I definitely have a flat tire Needless to say, there will be no 20-24 mile run today. I did sit safely on the side of ...

Killer Countdown!

By
Today I am so excited and ecstatic about the marathon I can barely contain myself. Although I know this is how I will feel as soon as we start: With the countdown at 2 days until race day the eating habits change a bit. I personally have to make sure I keep my carbs high enough (not a common problem) and make sure I take the time to slow down the workouts ie. yesterday being limited to one 1 hour workout. When you go as hard as we do slowing down is HARD! Mentally the slowing down is the biggest challenge because now all I think about is what if I roll my ankle walking down the hall, or trip over a curb, or bang my knee, or trip over the dog in the kitchen. Our minds are such funny things. We go 16 weeks if not more training for these races and you get down to the last two weeks and think about everything under the sun, even alien abduction, as being a threat to your race day. The stir craziness of preparing this week has made my mind a mental madhouse. Cook food, wash clothes, ...

Let's run a 10K.......

By
This post was from 3/18 - technical difficulty kept me from posting until now. So there was a local 5K/10K this weekend. The weekend before marathon #2. But our marathon #2 is also our dear friend Renee's half marathon #1!!!! Her first!!!! So she wanted to run through race ettiqutte and do a pre-race drill with this 10K. So I signed up. I also signed up my youngest daughter Danielle for the 5K. Danielle's training consisted of 1 0.25 mile run followed by a 0.75 mile walk. That's it. She had side stitches after 0.25. I had knee swelling after out precourse run the previous Saturday which resulted in an Orthopedic visit and cortisone shot. So the plan was, make Renee comfortable, keep the knee safe! We started great! Ran 0.5 then started 1 min run 30 sec walk intervals as planned. It was WARM! Way warm!! Sunshine beating down warm.... In MARCH were last Sunday we had snow flurries. Anyway we ran and got to a point where I saw an arrow pointing left but no person . Until t...
