Maintain the pace you feel like you've trained for and don't show up and try something different race day. If you've trained a walk/run method stick to it. Also, break your race into segments mentally. For me I look at a half like 5 miles, 5 miles, then a 10K. Focus on one segment at at time and forget about the next one.…

9/10 - 4.9 9/12 - 4 9/13 - 3.8 MTD - 56.25

Raisin, date and walnut oatmeal. 2 packs mid-morning every weekday for the last however long they've been making it.

Hey, I do yoga at home so no one sees me falling on my butt!

Thanks for the feedback. I'm not looking for any bodybuilding or power-lifting workouts. I'm mostly interested in mixing the upper plus, total body, and ab plus into the regular P90X phases for something different. I'm disappointed that you were not happy with them. The reviews I found on Amazon were mixed as well.

No real goals as far as doing an Ironman, or running a 100-mile race, or something like that. I just try to enjoy it one day at a time and not screw it up. But you know what they say "Bad decisions make good stories"!

I can get up and run but have a really hard time doing any kind of strength training early in the morning. I just don't feel awake, alert, coordinated or strong enough until about 9 AM. I think my body actually performs best mid morning for cardio exercise and late morning for strength training. But with work and kids I…

There's a Beginner Cycling Training Program on beginnertriathlete.com. It will give you some good workouts for starters. If the link doesn't work just Google it. http://www.beginnertriathlete.com/cms/article-detail.asp?articleid=1671

My Buccaneers are projected to suck again this year; so I'm not that excited! It helps living in a college town on Saturdays though.

This is my recommendation from the New Balance Good Form Running: - Contact ground MIDFOOT first. - Entire foot lands softly and under hip line. - Run light, avaoid pounding. - Landing on MIDFOOT promotes a balanced running position minimizing friction (braking). There is a lot more good information here:…

Week 1 - 10 miles Week 2 - Monday 9/3 - 5.3 miles

When I first started running my only goal was to finish the 5K at the end of a sprint triathlon. After doing a few 5K/10K's the first couple years I decided to run a half marathon. 10 miles seemed liked a far-fetched milestone. I never thought I could run that far. Now that I run more ultras, my training is usually…

I really don't eat anything special the night before but do avoid anything that might cause GI distress. I just try to have enough calories the day before to not feel under-nourished. The morning of a race I don't eat for a 5K. For a 10K I'll have a banana or maybe half a bagel with peanut butter at least an hour before…

I am a pirate two hundred years too late Cannons don't thunder there's nothin' to plunder I'm an over forty victim of fate Arriving too late, arriving too late

Rest day Saturday then 12-14 miles Sunday. Would like to hit 120 again next month.

5.7 at lunch so I'm ending the month with 120.22

No, you just have to find a balance that works for you. I got in the best shape of my life training for 50K runs and doing the P90X strength and ab workouts. You may have to adjust your nutrition to get enough calories and you need to get as much sleep as possible. Rest days become just as important as the work days. Good…

I picked up some Blue Moon Harvest Pumpkin Ale last week on my way home from a run. They had Shock Top Pumpkin Wheat; but it wasn't cold so I didn't grab any.

Monday - 6.5 Tuesday - 4.5 Today - 3.8 114.5 for the month so I'm planning 5.5 at lunch tomorrow to hit 120.

I usually stop at one of the two Publix stores nearby depending on whether I'm on my way home from work or just running there from my house. They just opened a big new fancy one about 3 miles from my house; but the aisles are narrow and I can't find where anything is located.
