thanks for all the advice, I don't know what type of climbing, hadn't gotten that far yet, trying to power DOWN on triathlon and do something slightly different and hopefully LESS time consuming,...

that altogether sucks.
I am just telling you my not so horrible story of coumadin which I have been on since april, I have over anticoagulated and underanticoagulated, but eventually got the dosage...

what's it like to try and learn rock climbing at 40, is the curve too much, or do I have a chance of being competent (without having to become a fanatic)?

Sounds like the family life already IS a triathlon, juggling so many things at once, would just call you an Ironwoman anyway, no need to swim to prove that!

GREAT PICTURES!!!

After running that run last year, I swore I would never run 20k again!
so, the mere fact that you have done it so many years in a row, well
IS AWESOME

sorry jess and clock,
@ j, if I lived near you I would come clean out the litter box for you. I just got off 1 month wheelchair and 2 1/2 mos crutches, hip fracture, collar, dvt, but doing ok now,...

Selkie:
am on 2.5 mg of warfarin every day, THAT is the extent of the treatment so far. Supposedly I get a doppler next month, but I can already tell that it is NOT cleared up from the last one...

I have to admit that my "forced" "um, literally BREAK" has been kind of ok, I am not even that anxious to get back, and have decided to just exersize for awhile, and not TRAIN...and now I have energy...

so the sprint was a 'cool down from the IM, I still am in awe of the IM...
good job!

3.6 seconds, that is totally cool, but I am glad you put on the sun screen, a couple of years ago in a tri in Miami, my mother who was watching the transitions from bike-run said I was the only...

Wish I was doing OWS like many of you, but yesterday I did 3000m, very happy about that. Got off the crutch this week and did 500 kickboard. The DVT means I cannot go too fast, so I am gonna relearn...

Of course it all depends on what your base is. I have always been fit and it took me 2 years to really improve and be strong. I am not sure what 'being used to it means' but after two years I could...

So, the vascular doctor told me to buy nylon stockings for compression for the post trombosis, seems NOW I have and EXCUSE to buy the totally cool running compression tights. I have a long flight...

Swam 500m today, in 45 mins..hahahaha. But I was a happy camper. Used flotation belt for about 200, did baby kicks for 100, and swam with pull, using BOTH arms, for 3, yipeee. Tomorrow 700!

Gooooo!

yippeee spent 30 minutes floating in the pool today holding on the railing...it felt soooo good

congrats and you say you're not hooked, but if you have signed up through October, I call that hooked!

good news is the collar bone is healing and I can use my arm some. Bad news, I am hospitalized with deep vein thrombosis and taking anti coagulants...
all very annoying...but I guess I can't do much...

THANKS FOR ALL THE MESSAGES!
The other guy, well he went down with me, and looked a little worse for wear, but did get up and cycle off after some minutes of standing around.

Went to the ortho...

ok, now you gotta race for the both of us! which means putting in some serious pool time:)

well...was strong and fit. saturday a commuter cyclist turned to see who was passing and instead of only turning his head, turned his bike and crashed into me. i went down hard. broke my helmet,...

LOVE ZIPPER DRILL!
sometimes I do it just to relax

all good advice,
decided to do the SPRINT on Friday, which still gives 10 days to Escape and
do the swim of the olympic on Sunday and transition, 5k on bike, transition, 1k run, just to practice...

Every year I do the olympic distance triathlon in San Andres, it is a good race! and this year it falls one week before Escape from Alcatraz. I am seriously considering doing it, these are my...

Stronger than ever and breaking barriers. Last week I did 21 x 100 all under 1:35, fastest 1:29, and the rest around 1:32 (swim). Then today (after day off yesterday), I rode the hilly part of the...
