I refuse to give up my skinny jeans!

November 27

Bike
  • 1h 46m
  • 25.00 miles
  • 14.15 Mi/hr

Social ride with BT group. Time and speed not exactly right because I forgot to stop timer during three stops for flats. Fun ride, met some new folks, just the thing to keep going during IMAZ recovery.

November 25

Run
  • 1h 01m
  • 6.11 miles
  • 09m 58s /Mi

Bagpipe run with RunFit Club. Meant to only do 5 miles, but ran with Stan, and we went farther up Equestrian than the rest of the group, then went around instead of back. Nice run, but I hurt more from a fast 6-miler than from the 15+ hours of IMAZ!

Does housecleaning count as a workout? :)
 

November 23

Swim
  • 07m
  • 250.00 meters
  • 02m 48s /100 meters

Felt great to stretch out the shoulders in the pool. Braced myself for the cold water on jumping in, and after IMAZ, the indoor pool at LTF is like bathwater!

Sport #1
  • Elliptical Training
  • 25m

Just a little activity to loosen things up. Was really cramped up and sore when I got out of bed this morning, but felt good after the elliptical trainer. Used the stretching seats at LTF to stretch EVERYTHING and then spent some time foam rolling. Back and shoulders are still sore just sitting, but nothing else hurts until I move. :)

Sport #2
  • Stretching
  • 15m

Just a little activity to loosen things up. Was really cramped up and sore when I got out of bed this morning, but felt good after the elliptical trainer. Used the stretching seats at LTF to stretch EVERYTHING and then spent some time foam rolling. Back and shoulders are still sore just sitting, but nothing else hurts until I move. :)

Hey guys, thanks for all of the inspirees! I'm going to get to answering each of them soon, and to complete the race report before I forget everything, but unfortunately I have to get some work done. :(
 

November 22

Rest day. Kept moving and on my feet all day to keep from cramping up. Cleaned out my closet (switching out summer and winter clothes) and bagged three bags of clothes for donation to Goodwill. Had to buy so many clothes over the years from weight gain (and then loss), and most of my winter clothes were too big, even after last year's big purge (last year I purged Mediums, this year I had to purge Smalls in favor of Extra Smalls). Now almost all of my summer and winter clothes fit in the closet at the same time! The other big laugh --between IMAZ and IMSG, about 1/3 of my short sleeves have K-Swiss on them!
 

November 21

Swim
  • 1h 39m 20s
  • 3850.00 meters
  • 02m 34s /100 meters

IMAZ swim. Not sure the exact distance in meters, but the IMAZ calculation is 2:37 per 100, which I'm pretty happy with considering the cool temp (61 degrees) and chop.

Bike
  • 7h 55m 18s
  • 112.00 miles
  • 14.14 Mi/hr

Rough day on the bike. Most disappointed in my performance here. Very windy (reportedly gusting 35 mph or higher) with intermittent rain showers. Legs were cramped from swim for first 1.5 loops, which made for an even more difficult day.

Run
  • 5h 41m 25s
  • 26.20 miles
  • 13m 01s /Mi

Considering I probably blew up my legs on the bike, and I screwed up nutrition on the first loop of the run, I'm not too unhappy with the run. Still, it's 41 minutes slower than my goal. Need to work on this.
