    You have to do some training before you can taper. And which of us is racing this weekend?

    :p

    I really should stay away from New Year exhuberances.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,468 ✭✭✭sconhome


    I will give a hamper to the highest bike nos for 2014. Based on being a TI member and having completed at least 3 tris in the year. Don't want cyclists coming in and taking a handy prize!!

    @BTH I think you're being told you need fattening up more than you need runners. Go chase the hamper instead.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 8,766 Mod ✭✭✭✭mossym


    Fazz, i think you might want to check your numbers. i went from 4th to 3rd yesterday at some stage without entering anything, you went the other way, so reckon you might have entered something wrong and put in a lower number than you meant.

    Hi Mossym, I'd say the change happened to Fazz when I added my turbo from last night, I jumped above Fazz on the bike mileage (all be it temporally) so his overall SBR score changed slightly moving you up to 3rd

    but i thought that should have moved me down as well? we'd both have moved down by 1.

    anyway, why am i complaining, not many months you'll be ahead of fazz, even though it will be short lived.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 8,766 Mod ✭✭✭✭mossym


    ignore my posts. figured out how it happened.


  • Registered Users Posts: 375 ✭✭Pmaldini


    cant believe you were complaining about moving up to 3rd:D:D:D

    won't last long, two race prep weeks this month. i'll enjoy it for a few more hours maybe


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,235 ✭✭✭Solobally8


    First OW swim of 2014, actuall first swim of 2014 today. Heavenly flat calm Lough Derg. Why didn't I get in sooner!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,888 ✭✭✭Dory Dory


    Just an idea.....it might be kind of fun to track elevation gain while cycling (if not this year, then perhaps to be considered next year?)...sort of like a twist on "King of the Mountain". Could be it's own little competition.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 8,766 Mod ✭✭✭✭mossym


    right Mike, now that you're finished running around fields all day, can we get July open please? :)

    Hmmmm....I went to update my SBR chart with tonight's run mileage and I think someone left me a little gift of 13 kilometers!! I'd love to claim them, but it just wouldn't be right. So, if anyone has put out a "reward if found" notice, then I have your lost kilometers. I won't update my chart until I've been given the green light to do so. My 11.8 kilometers will be waiting patiently in the wings until they can make their chart debut!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,830 ✭✭✭catweazle


    Of all people to give those 13k too - especially when I have my eye on giving you a beating this month :mad:

    You can post up your measly 11.8k (probably along with another 20 knowing you)

    Ah, if only I had known those were yours, cw, I would have kept my big mouth shut! Possession is 9/10ths of the law, you know! ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,997 ✭✭✭68 lost souls


    Well I started racking up the big distances again a huge 1.7km on the bike today and a little less on Thursday at 1.5km. Not really worth posting up but my first time doing anything that resembles training since the first surgery. A long long way to get back to where I was but going to take my time and make sure I do it right.

    Hoping to get some swimming in soon too. Running si a few months off still.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,361 ✭✭✭Kurt Godel


    I entered my bumper nothing-to-do-but-swim holiday update... and I'm still swimming 630m behind Dory... does that gal ever take a break?!?;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,888 ✭✭✭Dory Dory


    Hey...just a reminder that resident hoochie, Shell to Run, is doing IMUK tomorrow!! Her first IM! Pace smart, enjoy, and smile as you float across the finish line! Whoop whoop!! :)


  • Subscribers Posts: 19,425 ✭✭✭✭Oryx


    Solid 1:28 swim from Shell. Long transition but hopefully storming the bike now.


  • Subscribers Posts: 19,425 ✭✭✭✭Oryx


    Through 52k in 2:25...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,888 ✭✭✭Dory Dory


    Quick update on our girl, Shell to Run, out there....11.3 km of the run done and dusted....and she's 11:21 into the race. Whoop whoop!!! Nearly there! ;):)

    I cannot even imagine how she feels being that close to done!


  • Subscribers Posts: 19,425 ✭✭✭✭Oryx


    Through 33.5 and pacing nicely.


  • Subscribers Posts: 19,425 ✭✭✭✭Oryx


    Congrats on your result on what I am told was a very tough day out. Bravo, hoochie!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,888 ✭✭✭Dory Dory


    Add another IronHoochie to the boards list!! Congrats Shell to Run!!! Very well done - you must be over the moon!! :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,888 ✭✭✭Dory Dory


    Could the powers that be please change my Goal Race to "IM Maryland"? I was able to change it in the month of July, but no such luck on the main page. Thanks!

    Thanks for the support guys. Well thats it done, first IM complete in fourteen and a half hours. My goal was to come in under the fifteen hours so a happy camper. The main challenge for me was the bike and a number of issues on the day compounded my woes, but hey thats IM.
    I am delighted to have it done as it is a major sacrifice on family life. The two weeks before the event were all consuming with IM preparation.
    IM UK is an awesome event, the swim was idyllic, clear water and the new bike course was very tough but the support was incredible. The run course is well broken up into four sections and again fantastic support en route.
    Looking forward to enjoying the rest of the summer and who knows DCM maybe on the cards!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,235 ✭✭✭Solobally8


    Well done Shell, great achievement. You are a tough lady.


  • Registered Users Posts: 375 ✭✭Pmaldini


    that's me done for the month, had a big day planned for today but came off the bike last night and am nursing a few nice cuts and bruises, with only 3 weeks left to IM I am going to wrap myself in cotton wool:(

    heal up. well done on the numbers, looks like the work is done. best of luck with it.

    expecting another big set of numbers to come in. Fazz surely has some big numbers to add in there, given where we are in the year

    cheers mossym, scuppers my plans for the next few days but it could have been a lot worse, and I agree on Fazz, I'd say they will be pretty impressive numbers when he posts
