sunday Tropical storm Debbie

Supposed to do 60 minutes today. Did that on the treadmill at the hotel prior to lacrosse tournament. Weather super nasty outside and no one to run with so I jumped on treadmill again. Also wore my newtons. Had a nice workout. Kept the lights off in the fitness center and fan blowing...Started out at an easy pace and turned the speed up one click every 0.25 mile for 5.5 miles. had a nice run! Newtons felt great again. Still a little sore but not bad at all anymore...

supposed to do 45 min swim and 35 min run. well it was really bad weather down here and couldnt find a local pool open with laps since i did an extra swim on monday gonna use that as partial workout today. ran 35 min HIIT with negative splits for 35 minutes in Newtons. Great run! Seems to be getting better in the Newtons. A treadmill run is still just that.....

swim 30 run 30

down south for a lacrosse tournament...on the atlantic coast. and pool at hotel was swarmed with boys so we took a group to the beach. double red flags, high waves, and rip current.......needless to say we stayed close to the shore. we swam for 15 minutes until we both got slammed pretty hard. made it 650 yds. and called it quits....but for those 15 minutes it was tough and a great workout....then took off on the beach for E's inaugural run!! did 2.5 miles for our 30 min run. sand was soft and harder to run on but it was good because still had good form and no shoes on. took it easy and we both enjoyed it. nice beach breeze!!!!

great workout after a 6 games of lacrosse!!

bike 90 min with hills

hmmm....had to improvise today since I was in Atlanta. I went to the hotels gym. Had cool stationary bikes with computers so I put in "variety" and it was a good workout. A boring one but good. Had a lot of resistance along with rolling hills. Which resembled the changes in the real road nicely. Just hard to keep focused and really wanting to do it. No natural breeze and was tired after the drive the night before. But a workout is good regardless!! off to lacrosse fields!!

group ride

always eventful with us!!!
hubby went with "A" group and had TWO flats!!! had to leave my group ride and go to truck to head back and pick him up. I got 24 miles in (out of the 27 that I was supposed to) not bad at all!!

Max speed of 30 mph!!!!! Super stoked!!! I guess momma bear instincts help push a quality ride!!
Hubby didnt get dropped and was able to hang with "a" group so he was happy about that. I am really enjoying the wed group rides. And all of the people are fantastic!!! Great atmosphere!!

Heading to Jax tomorrow after my am workout to get the shiv fixed. so sad that BOTH tires blew...I would love to know how that happened. Just very thankful it didnt cause a wreck!!!
