Yoga/Stretch

Posted on November 29, 2013 by crazytigerrabbitman

Absolutely nothing tops off a “Mega Training Day” like a mega stretch; time to unfurl, relax and recover before reinserting myself back into the real world of holiday traffic and bedtime negotiations with the child.  Couple that with the fact … Continue reading →

Today represents my second “mental toughness” Mega-training day involving a workout of all three disciplines in a single day.  This morning I swam 3.25k and then a 90 minute Masters spin class this evening followed by this 25 minute Brick … Continue reading →

Functional Strength/Core

Posted on November 27, 2013 by crazytigerrabbitman

Tonight we’re putting up the Christmas tree after a traditional holiday meal of, umm, tacos?  But, whatever, the deal is that as long as I can be home and fed by 6:30pm and ready to trim the shit out of … Continue reading →

Well, I can’t avoid it any longer, winter is officially here.  Dang!  While I still haven’t completely acclimatized to the cold weather yet I still tend to find myself fantasizing about running in shorts and t-shirt but, I’ll have that opportunity … Continue reading →

Yoga

Posted on November 26, 2013 by crazytigerrabbitman

After a good 3.8k swim session in the pool this morning, I felt compelled to do a little 60 minute bendy-twisty yoga session here at home; basically, an opportunity to stretch out my shoulders and recovering calf muscle and, well, … Continue reading →

Functional Strength/Core

Posted on November 26, 2013 by crazytigerrabbitman

Back to the gym for another functional strength and core routine while the child is belly-flopping, bobbing, and Lord knows whatever else they during her swimming lessons.  One of these days I suspect they may actually swim as well but, … Continue reading →

Long Run (18.01k)

Posted on November 24, 2013 by crazytigerrabbitman

I really labored over what to listen to during today’s 18.01k run; almost as much as I labored about the run itself.  Hey, it’s cold (-12°), windy and all kinds of ‘ick’ out, so I find it particularly hard to … Continue reading →

Functional Strength /Core

Posted on November 23, 2013 by crazytigerrabbitman

I had a bonus opportunity this afternoon to slip in a quick functional strength and core workout since the child decided she didn’t want to go swimming this morning, so that leaves me with more free gym time and that’s … Continue reading →

Drills/Fartlek (5.4k)

Posted on November 21, 2013 by crazytigerrabbitman

I’m facilitating classes all week so I’m stuck running when I can be it early mornings (as on Tuesday), at lunch, or while on breaks, etc.  Plus, it’s cold out…and wet.  Bleh.  But, whatever, this is the crappy hand I’ve … Continue reading →

Weights

Posted on November 20, 2013 by crazytigerrabbitman

I’m sneaking some bonus time at the gym this evening with the dumbbells (the iron kind, not the assorted idiots I happen to share them with).  Call it avoiding the Disney Channel, call it some quality ‘Me Time’, call it … Continue reading →
