    You got it! I did a 45 mile bike this morning. Felt nice. No run after. I’ll do an 8 or 9 mile run tomorrow then officially be in taper mode for the week. Salt intake and calorie intake was good this morning as well.

    Good luck bud! Rooting for you!

    Nice job dude! Regardless of what we’re doing, be very happy with yourself. That’s a great accomplishment! @Clintonaldo what’s the word? Am I checking the progress tomorrow or you bowing out?

    Very sorry. It really is a kick in the nuts. Given that IM Florida is only 6 weeks away, might be tough to recover. The bike probably wouldn't be that big but combine that with two marathons would be very difficult.
  11. pearlandhorn
    Same here. You could do the bike and run and then sign up for IM Florida as well?

    I think it's bullshit that they won't even offer deferment or another slot at a race that has entries available. I thought they did do that a few months back at another north america race. Maybe Oceanside?

    What the fuck? Why? edit: just read the announcement. That really sucks man. Very sorry. 😞

    I was thinking about what it's going to be like to cross the finish line in Waco. It'll probably hit me when I get to the finish line area. Granted, it's not a full, but the preparation required and commitment that I've given it and it all coming together is enormous. I've been training for this for like 7 months. I think it'll hit you. You're dedication to it and it all paying off. Enjoy that beer.

    Good luck again. Be safe and enjoy the journey!

    @Clintonaldo How you doin? Nerves gone?
  17. pearlandhorn
    You’ll do great man. I’ll be monitoring your progress. If they stream it, I’ll have it on. Rooting for you bud!

    Great brick session this morning. Took the QR off the trainer and went about 31 miles. Started around 7:15 and got nervous about traffic so headed home not quite ready to be done. I could have definitely ridden the whole race distance. This thing flies in comparison to my road bike. Went for a quick 4 mile run right after. Completed that 4 miles in under 33 minutes at 8:09 average. I really have to slow down right off the bike. It doesn’t feel like I’m running as fast as I am because my heart rate is already at 110-120 while on the bike. @Clintonaldo are you wearing carbon plates shoes for Chattanooga? I’m debating to use the vaporflys or the novablast. I’m leaning to vaporflys but I’m not sure. Probably won’t matter much as it’s only a half marathon but I’m curious as to your shoe selection: speed or comfort?

    Got back on the saddle Monday after work for a short 45-minute ride. Did an hour this morning. Soreness in the legs feels good. "Surgery" if you want to call it that has done it's job. Knock on wood but I think I'm healed. Taking the QR out this weekend for a good ride on the road and keeping it off the trainer until after race day. I'm getting nervous. I know I'll do fine. I think it's more mental right now than physical. Doc said I can get back in the pool today so I'm heading to the pool in the morning before work to get a long swim in and knock the rust off. I'll be in the pool 3x per week until race day. It's nice to be full go again. Just gotta get through another week of hard training then taper it out. Already done my long runs and long bricks. I may do one more shorter brick (25 mile ride + 6 mile run or something) before race day just to calm the nerves.

    The President, the President's Press Secretary, the Director of the NIH, the Director of the CDC... Are The President, the President's Press Secretary, the Director of the NIH, the Director of the CDC a reliable source? Start at :34.

    Could you please answer the question?

    Then why were we told they prevent illness?
  24. pearlandhorn
    Mine was driven by the constant goal post moving by the major media outlets when I used to pay attention to them. I got the first two pfizer shots. At the time, we were told that we wouldn't get sick. People started getting sick after getting shots. Then they said you can't spread it if you're vaccinated, then studies came out about how people were still spreading it even though they were vaxxed. Oh, well then it was we wouldn't get critically ill. Deaths started decreasing but infections were going up, causing people to question why even get "boosted" when natural immunity is better than protection from vaccines. In hindsight, I wish I hadn't gotten vaxxed. Mainly because I believe I'm in better physical shape than 99% of the population and have almost zero risk of being hospitalized because of covid. In my opinion, it's not deliberate ignorance, it's logic.

    For those with kids that have Disney+, there is a nice little add on you can do for ESPN+ for cord cutters. Our annual Disney+ renewal was up in 3 days and my wife was browsing through deals for Verizon. She increased her phone plan by $5 per month and we got Disney+, Hulu Library with Ads, and ESPN+ for $10 per month. Disney+ renewal is about $13 per month. Bundle ESPN+ with Disney+. It's a good deal. I know, I know...
