We're less than 12 weeks away. Who's in and where are we at in our training (OS? transition? HIM plan?) image

  • I guess I'm in, although my momentum is definitely down. Felt good last weekend doing the TT and then raced my first crit on Sunday. However, played basketball sunday night and knocked knees with someone (swollen all week) and banged heads with someone (also swollen), so this weeks been a no go. Heading downstairs in a few to sit on the trainer. Trying to pick up week 2 of HIM. Want to race the crit again tomorrow, but man it's cold.
  • I'm in!  Newbie in da Haus from Montreal.  Training going well.  Into week 10/20 of intermediate HIM plan.  Off to Tucson in 3 weeks for BBW.  May do 180km TT New Palz, NY on 5/16.

    BTW - Leigh your stretching vids/tips are awesome!

  • I'm almost transitioned fully into the HIM plan. Back in the pool 2x/week and upping the bike volume. I'm with you though Keith, carrying some bumps and bruises from the OS but all in all, feeling decent. The biggest wrench in my Moose plans will be the ToC. Fingers crossed I can recover quicker than last year! image 

  • Didn't ride saturday, but did the sat. ride on sunday. Feeling better after posting these numbers and think I'm adjusting to the position of the tri-bike.

  •  I'm in! Just started the 12wk Half Intermediate Plan today (started week 3). Trying to adjust to the HIM schedule - I've gotten used to the OS schedule (and have always done the recycled Olympic plans from EN 1.0 ) Only two bikes this week, and three swims!

    First time back in the pool tonight - felt great! Too funny, feels like I've been swimming all winter!

    Are you guys, that are coming out of OS, gonna test next week (week 4)? I just tested 2 weeks ago in the OS, so don't think I'm going to. Wondering what you all thought.

  • I'm holding off on the bike test till I'm outside. It might be off a week or two, but close enough I figure. image

  • So jealous I won't be there this year...have fun!!!
  • Looks like race director Keith J. pulled the trigger and Moosey is now a single loop bike course for '10.

    He's been talking about adding this hill since it was Granite Ledges before Mooseman. A few years back he said he wanted it to be a destination hill like the Beast is at St. Croix. haven't seen it yet, but it's on my to do list.
