http://teamlunachixdc.blogspot.com/2008/09/luaras-savageman-race-report.html
Laura's Savageman Race Report. Was the hardest race I’ ve. Done yet. But I accomplished my goals of making it up Westernport. I signed up for Savageman. Over six months ago. I had so much fun being part of a relay (swimming) and volunteering last year that I just had to give the whole race a try this year. I went into this race with two goals in mind: 1) to make it up the Westernport. Wall, a 100 foot 31% grade hill; and 2) to finish the race. Jersey with a long sleeve wicking. I love down hills.

VO2 Max Test with Krista Schultz. Posted by Katie Palavecino. I have a confession.I just started using my heart rate monitor in November. After training and racing since 2004.I decided it was time. I was pretty unsure of what my training zones were and went off formulas I found online or asked others.I figured this was not the best way because everyone is different.

My 2009 IronGirl Observations. IronGirl is always an inspirational race for me. For many women, this is the first race they’ve ever done. Others haven’t attempted something athletic for years. Women of all shapes and sizes come out for this event. Some are fast and others a little slower. But no matter how fast – everyone eventually does 21.4 miles! Below are my observations from this years race:. N water is as. Icky as Centennial Lake! Seven minutes between waves means you tread water for quite a while.
