On April 17, 2008 By Nicole GlarosIn MusingsLeave a comment

Well, after 2 weeks of family being here, I'm finally getting back on my training schedule.  I did exercise during the hiatus, just not with 'purpose'. On Tues I went to REI in Denver to see Sally Edwards speak.  She's won several Ironman Triathlons and helps athletes learn how to train better.  She asked how …

Triathalon training: 1 solid hour on the bike

On April 1, 2008 By Nicole GlarosIn MusingsLeave a comment

Being the fair weather rider that I am, I opted to ride inside today, 1 solid hour, on the LeMond bike. Let me start by saying... BORING. Let me end by saying... BORING. However, I did get a good workout in.  I did little mini-sets of pushing the heart rate anaerobically for about 1 minute, …

Short bike ride – 110 days to go

On March 10, 2008 By Nicole GlarosIn MusingsLeave a comment

I got on my bike for the first time all season today.  I didn't want it to be a long ride, just to get my ass used to the saddle again and explore a little bit about our new neighborhood (Vista Ridge, Erie). Let me say that while my crotch is sore for not-fun reasons, …

Danskin Triathalon – Let the training begin

On March 6, 2008 By Nicole GlarosIn MusingsLeave a comment

I have 2 friends that have talked me into doing the Danksin Triathlon coming up in June in Colorado.  I'm in pretty decent shape, I'm in the gym every day, I lift once a week and usually spin or run the other 4 days a week.  If the weather is nice, I hike or run …
