Wind, and more Snow

This is crazy. 40 mph winds, 30 some degrees and a light dusting of snow. Again we have to run on the treadmill. I am so tired of the treadmill. We're lifting weights before we run. Nelson just informed me that we are doing more core, than arms and legs. Lifting has been very beneficial to me this year. We have incorporated it into our workout 3 times a week. I have dropped some weight and I'm down to 181 now. I think its because of the weights. I have changed my diet a little, not type of food just smaller portions.
This weekend was tough I only got an hour run in. My son, Hunter, went to a Regional Swim meet in Minneapolis. It's tough to balance these long workouts, family and travel. The in climate weather has been the toughest though. I can't wait to get outside. Cliff came out with a new flavor of Cliff Shot, Mountain Berry. I'm going to try them tonight and I will let you know how they are. Ok, I better got get my stuff ready. See you tomorrow. Yes, I will remember!

Training, Zoot Advantage Shoes and Recoverite.

I haven't been blogging like I should, but I have been training a lot. It's been tough to juggle life, family and train. I am once again focused. I have to say that about every six weeks. Things have been going really well. So for I am healthy and getting stronger. I have a bunch of miles on my Zoot Advantage shoes and love them. They have more cushion and seem to be wider than the TT I had before. They are working out much better for the longer distances and I have no knee pain. The other reason I believe I am feeling better is the use of Hammer Recoverite. I have been taking it after my workouts. I use 2 scoops in about 16oz of milk and I have had less fatigue and faster recovery. I have both online and instock if you want to try them.

Serious Weight

My friend Rachelle Little has pimped out my blog breathing new life in me to actually start blogging again. I have been bad and not kept up with this. We have went trough one building set and are in a recovery week now. About ready to start building for another 3 weeks. I have felt surprisingly good throughout all the training so far. Much better than for Ironman Arizona. I am ready for the weather to break so we can start training outside. The biggest difference to the training this time around is that we have Incorporated weights. We lift 3 times a week and it has made a big difference. I haven't lost weight but my training partners and I have toned. We still do quite a bit of cardio but the weights have been the difference. I mean a positive difference.
