If we can't get people to sign up for a 6 or a 12k race, why would we think we'd magically get a good number for a longer distance event. I think I understand what Eric meant. I know some people don't show up to a race which require more commuting than racing. By organizing a longer race, you "...

This article is so right.

Right now, swimming 2x a week. Around 8 or 9 km in total, because of JFK

I improved a lot this summer by swimming 4x a week. Around 18 km

After JFK, I'll go back to 3x a week and probably 4x after Xmas. I want to go under 1 hour at my next Iron.

Scotia pics. Did you take picture of a Scotia Bank?

I am sure the event has a name.

This is satire.

Right one. Chocolate Milk is the cheapest recovery drink. If you want more protein, add some powder from http://wheydepot.com/

Hélène and I will be there.

It's fluctuating everyday. No surprise here. Why would you buy it?

Once again, I was asked at the pool if I am training for the Olympics.

Did it ever happened to you?

Bump!

Sorry, I liked Florida but training in late September and October is not always fun. And darkness falls too early for those loops in the Gatineau.

Is Jeff also starting P90X? Yes, we are both doing the full thing including the nutrition plan. The only difference is I am also going to be training 8-10 hours per week for the Victoria Marathon, in addition to the P90X, and Heather plans to do a modified "FIRST" running program. The P90...

Congrats for your first one!

Is Jeff also starting P90X?

Nice choice. The reviews I'm reading on that bike rank it as one of the best values around. I'd probably buy that one too, if I needed a new bike! ditto ... :shifty: :wink: Andy, I am looking for a reliable cheap road bike for Rideau Lakes and spare for when tri bike is at the bike shop. What do yo...

Who's Turd?

Cannot that be a thread in the Running General Discussion?

This last paragraph in the article is interesting because I'd venture that there are many of us who don't experience a lot of discomfort in races. We race at (relatively) the same pace we train at. Mostly that's because the distance itself is the challenge (21.1L, 42.2K, 140.6 miles), so intensity ...

So did you two for sure change your minds? I admit I checked the page this morning ... hmmmm ... A lot of folks from my club are going. I'll be there too because I cannot let them race there without me. The big question is: Is Hélène going to race two Ironman next year? It's so easy for her that I ...

Waitasec! I thought you did sign up? Oh well, if not, join me next year in the reg line! I'm bringing Baileys and coffee. having major regrets for not signing up.... I will try to get a qualifier :twisted: Did I hear Baileys??????!!!!!!!! heh heh... Jeff I resigned myself to 2011 but I'm already re...

A few of you mentioned the sub-10. I already did it but on flat course in Florida last year.

Awesome!

I just want to mention that you were told a lie: the first 5k are in fact the fastest, the easiest, where you feel the better.
