First Time Triathlete: March 2011
http://first-time-triathlete.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 16, 2011. Paleo and Liking It! It's Day 5 of my Paleo experiment and can I say, "I'm impressed! So far I have not experienced any of the side effects (major cravings, withdrawal, fatigue) that many others have reported on various forums. I feel great, energy is high, and my mood is quite good. I've already lost 2lbs in these first few days. The smoothie powered me through a crazy work morning.I didn't even realize I missed my snack until it was lunch time! Wednesday, March 9, 2011. I'm s...

First Time Triathlete: Race Calendar Edits
http://first-time-triathlete.blogspot.com/2011/05/race-calendar-edits.html
Monday, May 23, 2011. Sometimes a series of events occurs that requires a major course correction. Thankfully, it's not an injury or other training mishap. It's not even an equipment issue. Without going into a lot of detail, let's just say that sometimes you have to make the RIGHT decision even if it isn't the FUN decision. That said, I have to take the South Maui Triathlon off my race calendar, which is only a few weeks away. June 4, 2011 at 7:02 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

First Time Triathlete: Race Day Play List
http://first-time-triathlete.blogspot.com/2011/06/race-day-play-list.html
Friday, June 10, 2011. Race Day Play List. I had a little free time today, so I made a CD to listen to on the way to the race Sunday morning. Last year I discovered that there isn't much on Maui radio at 4:00 am Since I don't want to be left at the mercy of whatever is in my car right now (too many overplayed CDs), here's what I'll be listening to:. Beautiful Day, U2. Where Are You Going, Dave Matthews Band. Suddenly I See, KT Tunstall. Big Time, Peter Gabriel. Pump It, Black Eyed Peas. Walk On, U2.

First Time Triathlete: April 2011
http://first-time-triathlete.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 28, 2011. Beer, bacon and bananas. These are actually things on my shopping list. Scribbled on a post-it and stuck to the back of my phone to remind me what to pick up when I get to the market. The list struck me funny, especially since the beer and bacon weren't for me, illustrating the challenge of eating on a particular nutrition plan when no one else in your household will follow. This diet (I really don't like that word since I've been eating so well! Because they agree with me and I...

First Time Triathlete: What's in YOUR cabinet?
http://first-time-triathlete.blogspot.com/2011/05/whats-in-your-cabinet.html
Monday, May 16, 2011. What's in YOUR cabinet? The title of this post makes me think of that credit card commercial, "What's in. This is my nutrition cabinet. A tiny corner cabinet in the kitchen where I store all my healthly stuff. When I open the door I often think, "I wonder what other triathletes' cabinets/drawers/boxes/etc. look like." And I'm also thankful that my stash seems simple (at least to me), compared to some other nutrition plans I've read elsewhere. Here's a quick rundown:. View my complet...

First Time Triathlete: February 2011
http://first-time-triathlete.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 21, 2011. So here I am now, almost at the end of February, with my official tri-training schedule to begin in a month, and not anywhere NEAR where I should be in terms of fitness. But that's all about to change. I've got to concentrate on losing that "holiday 8" that I put on before my training schedule starts. I may not take it off in one month, but I can at least make a dent. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

First Time Triathlete: June 2011
http://first-time-triathlete.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 16, 2011. Race Report - South Maui Triathlon. This was my second year at this race, which was my inaugural triathlon. The few weeks leading up to it were crazy and I wasn't even sure I was going to race until about two weeks before, but I made it! Bruce surprised me the night before by saying he would go with me to the race and not drive down later, which was wonderful. We packed the truck with my bags, poured our coffee and headed out the door by 4:20 to get to the race site by 5:00.

First Time Triathlete: Thankful for Good Friends
http://first-time-triathlete.blogspot.com/2011/06/thankful-for-good-friends.html
Sunday, June 5, 2011. Thankful for Good Friends. We talked quite a bit and he reminded me that we have very few - two - triathlons on Maui every year. How could I not race since I had rehabbed so well and trained so hard over the winter? My swimming and cycling skills were strong, my running was coming along and my weight was down. All very good reasons to race. I told him I had really dropped off in volume in the last two weeks (a critical build phase! June 5, 2011 at 12:37 PM. View my complete profile.

First Time Triathlete: July 2011
http://first-time-triathlete.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 31, 2011. I'm moving my blog . http:/ di-tri-ing.blogspot.com/. It was simple, really. "First Time Triathlete" was a great way to kick off a blog about my first experience in triathlon, but I've since decided that I'm definitely not the "done one and finished" type of triathlete. No. Rather, I am hooked on this sport and ready to take it to the next level, so I decided to do so under a new name. The crazy, demanding, exhilarating sport of triathlon!
