Watch Maggie Swim..Bike..Run: February 2008
http://maggietris.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Watch Maggie Swim.Bike.Run. Thursday, February 14, 2008. These weeks of training are dedicated to my long term goal of competing in this race on July 20th. I'm still fighting the "crud" that's going around, so I did do part of the swim workout today. I feel tired from the workout, so my body must be working hard to fight the virus I have. Such a nice family night. Wednesday, February 13, 2008. Yes, that's what I do. Sort of scary to think I have to start over. But, hopefully with some new tools and l...

Watch Maggie Swim..Bike..Run: SEVENTEEN WEEKS
http://maggietris.blogspot.com/2008/03/seventeen-weeks.html
Watch Maggie Swim.Bike.Run. Thursday, March 20, 2008. And my first flat tire in quite a while. That's because I've been doing a lot of riding on my trainer. Too cold and dark in the mornings- and in the afternoon it's just me and Cate. This morning I woke up @ 4:15 and I laid there in bed until 4:45. I decided to put on my warm clothes and go for my first early morning ride in quite a while. Coffee, peanut butter toast with honey, potty break, water bottle, lights and safety blinkers and I was ready to go.

Watch Maggie Swim..Bike..Run: Swimming Uphill
http://maggietris.blogspot.com/2008/02/swimming-uphill.html
Watch Maggie Swim.Bike.Run. Wednesday, February 13, 2008. Yes, that's what I do. No wonder I'm exhausted after a workout. I'm swimming uphill. I bet you didn't know such a thing could be done. Well, it can and I do it. It has all to do with body positioning. Today I was video taped while swimming so I can fix my technique. Next week have a lesson to relearn everything I've been doing. So, while I'm learning my new technique, I won't be able to join in the group swims. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Watch Maggie Swim..Bike..Run: December 2007
http://maggietris.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Watch Maggie Swim.Bike.Run. Thursday, December 20, 2007. 12 miles and a baby jogger. The PF Changs 1/2 marathon is just a short 3 weeks away. We're in our final weeks of training and the miles are starting to pile up. I ran 11 miles on Sunday. My friend and training partner Tammy left today for Utah to go skiing over Christmas; so we decided to do our long run this morning. This meant that I had to take Cathryn with us. We made it to the end, and Cate never made a peep! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Watch Maggie Swim..Bike..Run: April 2007
http://maggietris.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Watch Maggie Swim.Bike.Run. Thursday, April 26, 2007. Wednesday, April 25, 2007. Wetsuit, Wind and Achilles Tendonitis. Thank you Paul Dignan for letting me borrow your wetsuit. Paul is my friend Tammy's husband- he's an IRONMAN! I wore the suit in the pool today. A few people said the pool's heated. I said I know, I'm training for a race and I've never swum in a wetsuit before. I jump in the pool. Hey, I float. How cool is that. I like that. It's Wednesday and guess what? Oh, the life of an athlete at 41.

Watch Maggie Swim..Bike..Run: A short swim
http://maggietris.blogspot.com/2008/02/short-swim.html
Watch Maggie Swim.Bike.Run. Tuesday, February 12, 2008. It seems that I've caught a little bit of the bug that Cathryn has. I don't feel 100% and have lots of post-nasal drip which is irritating my throat. Today was a bike and swim day and strength day. I decided just to do a swim and do some upper body lifting today since my body feels a little achey. 3x100 pull 20" rest. 2x50 pull 10" rest. All in all 1800. 2 sets dead bugs (core). 2x12 lat pull down 60lbs. 2x12 bent arm pull downs 25lbs.

Watch Maggie Swim..Bike..Run: March 2008
http://maggietris.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Watch Maggie Swim.Bike.Run. Sunday, March 30, 2008. Today was Silent Sunday @ South Mountain Park. No cars are allowed. We've been going to South Mountain for the past 4 weeks and I have to say it was really nice not to have to worry about cars. Although cars can't drive more than 15mph- it was nice to have it all to ourselves. I really wasn't sure how the ride was going to go today. I've been sick all week- really just the worst allergies I've ever ever had. I'll be doing the sprint, since my swim endur...

Such a nice family night. UPDATE: Flowers were provided by Bruce. Roses (red ones), in a spectacular vase with a wrought-iron base. It was beautiful. Long Run with Cate.

Watch Maggie Swim..Bike..Run: October 2007
http://maggietris.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Watch Maggie Swim.Bike.Run. Monday, October 29, 2007. 1K Swim 28Mile Bike 6.55 Mile Run. The Soma Quarterman- October 28, 2007. I had a really stressful week, and day before the race, so I wasn’t really as excited as I usually am about doing a race. The swim is always stressful. But, really no one likes the swim, except those who are swimmers. So I try to keep that in mind. I did have lots of fun (mostly on the bike) and had a huge smile on my face when I finished. Triathlon season is over. Fun, fun fun.
