Hush child!!!

Let it snow in the mountains; you can snowboard and I'll snowshoe. The city however, can stay just like this for another 2 months and I won't cry.

LaDeChat I love the one swim cap that says "sink, bike, run"

Cross train on the eliptical and bike. Unpack boxes *groan* and maybe squeeze in a massage

Do we really call it Fartage in English???? Isn't it waxing???

Well this will be my last year for this event. It has really changed, and not for the better. Years ago it was organized by a group of indivuals who wanted to raise money to help defer some of the costs of snow removal for our lovely running trails. Then two years ago they decided to move the event ...

Via Baby Girl!!

I sooo get that LadyJ! I've had the same thing happen with my Ms Specialized.... I love her to bits and she has a place of honor in my office over the winter

I took about a week off for a calf muscle that I swear had a golf ball located inside of it.... It healed up nicely with physio. I took another week off in about March due to some crazy ultramarathon overtaining that left me weeping at the end of a long run. I figure you've hit your limit when that ...

Here is where it all falls apart: Yoga - 0 Weights - 0 Core stregth - 0 That could explain the shape we see in your avatar. :D :lol: :lol: I'm far cuter than Opus :roll: and although I'm a size 5 shoe I'm a size 6 so I figure I'm not dying without my yoga/core/weights.... it is just I know I'm *sup...

Average week.... I'm in maintence season but I've kept a long run in the mix. Running: 7 hours (3-4 X1 hour and 1 long run about 3 hours) Biking: 2 hours Cross training: 2 hours (eliptical/stairmaster) In the winter I'll add either another long run or snowshoe for a couple of hours. Here is where it...

Perfect! Thank you very much.

I have to agree with Lesley... Swimming is the worst! I can't explain why but I'd always be hungry post swim workout. However, I did learn that training for an ultra and doing back to back (sat/sun) long runs resulted in some serious dinner time food consumption and caloric room for a Sleeman's crea...

Can I take the women's long sleve grey (small)?

I see the cheque payment info in one of the other threads.... I live in Edmonton so how does above shirt get from you to me?

Cross train today at the gym. Usually like to take Monday off but I'm pretty sure that I'm not going to run/xtrain on Tuesday since I'm moving

Dam, darn, crap, sh%t !!!!!! Slipped on ice at about mile 16 of long run this morning, could feel something pull in groin area - Vitamin I and ICE!!!! Be well - that is an order :lol: Ran for 3 hrs - unknown distance since it isn't training season I didn't wear anykind of electronic device. Ran in ...

Samantha??? You joining us????? I thought the crowds were ok last year. It is a fun run - no way to have a PB at this event. The parking was kind of nasty last year. I don't think they anticipated the turn out that they got. Donald, no I don't look like the penguin :D I'm cuter :lol: No seriously, I...

Oh I love these! I have a dry sense of humor so I find most of them pathetically funny. My favorite question after completing my first Ultramarathon was the constant WHY? "Why on earth would anyone run 50kms??" Man that gets old - try something like "cool" instead. The next favorite is how people wh...

Are you a dedicated trainer? Oh yes! Do you have great running form? nothing special Do you pace yourself well? Pretty decent Do you refuse to give up? OH yes! Do you always eat well? Very much so Are you naturally athletic? Good grief NO! Do you study the technical elements of the sport? sometimes...

Yep! Its a tradition!

Almost couldn't post a Saturday workout after I saw the CdnArtyWife avatar since I have a SEVERE mouse phobia....... Decided to suck up and scroll past really fast.......

1.5hr spin on the bike while watching Lost season 1. My legs are tired from yesterdays 3 hour trail run.

I've heard that duct tape is great (really!). Have you ever used this? I really don't recommend it at all. I read all 400 crazy pages of the foot bible and duct tape is fine if it is ALL you own but not when you have your choice of products. I crewed recently for a friend of mine who ran a 100 mile...

Out of all the possible issues, motivation isn't my problem. I'm internally driven. Seeking out a coach would be to help ensure the workouts are balanced enough, have some kind of feedback (with respect to speed work or other specific workouts) and are race specific enough (meaning hilly course and ...

Has anyone used an online coach? Good? Bad? Toughts?

I've made most of my own training programs to date but I'd like to branch out and see what a coach would choose. In particular, I'm thinking of another ultramarathon but I'm not sure if that matters as to your feedback on online coaches.

I tried yaktrax last winter for work, and they broke on the very first day, as did all the other guys'. Those were the regular ones though...maybe the yaktrax pro is more durable. Mine broke on my second run and both runs were less than 5 K long. :evil: I've worn mine for two seasons.....They have ...
