<p>4.05 mi treadmill run</p>
<p>Rainy and miserable, 4.34 on the treadmill. Sabadog doesn’t have a treadmill, so off in the rain we go.</p>
<p>PetZen. Who knew? Did a search, but I didn’t really expect anything to come up!</p>

<p>Followed this with a search for “cat treadmill” and not surprisingly found a picture of a cat reclining on the treadmill belt, lol.</p>
<p>Hmmm. Intriguing, but wouldn’t fulfill the intended…ah…* purpose*…of the walk.</p>
<p>Wish I could post pictures. This morning was the Underpants Run, which is a Kona Ironman tradition. Elite athletes and their families- in various, um, pieces of underwear. Thongs, tighter whites, boxers, bikinis- it was interesting. WildChild and his coach made the official picture that is on Triathlete magazine website. I ran 5.6 miles before that, including some hills. It’s hot here. We walked around forever at the Expo, getting to meet famous (to us) people.</p>
<p>That sounds pretty amusing, MOWC. ;)</p>
<p>Google triathlete magazine and it will take you to pictures of the underpants run. Great pictures! Lots of fit people that you don’t mind in a state of undress lol!</p>
<p>Good work, Deb. My guys are picture 38. WildChild has grey shirts and a HR monitor. Coach is to his left in a white hat and obscene shorts that you can’t see, thankfully.</p>
<p>I’ve got to look that up. Will make sure no one else is in the room when I do that… :)</p>
<p>3.1 run - could EVERYDAY be sunny and 68 degrees???</p>
<p>Grey shorts, that is. I swear, my iPad typing has gotten terrible. </p>
<p>Garmin was giving away free colored straps for the 910, which is what I have! Cool.</p>
<p>Yay, eddie. Five pound parties for you and the hubby. That’s fantastic! I hope you are jumping for joy. It’s especially cool that you are both having success…</p>

<p>To the basement for me. Did the dreaded single leg deadlifts. Only wobbled enough to put a hand on my bar stool once in three sets. Not bad. Some reps are better than others. </p>
<p>I’ve been doing Bunsen Burner’s pushups, with my feet up at kitchen counter height – actually on an Airex pad on top of a DB rack. Those things are hard. Really nice progression to make pushups a little more challenging. DB front squats (dumbbellls at the shoulders) and 3-pt DB rows to round out the weight lifting part of the workout.</p>
<p>MOWC:</p>
<p>Did you run the underwear run? </p>
<p>I’m glad I don’t have to do that. It would probably be too much for the spectators!</p>
<p>I didn’t do the underwear run, although I would have if logistics worked out better. H and I held all their phones, shorts etc. It probably wasn’t over a mile, actually.<br>
Got 2 really cool pictures today- 1 of WildChild with the pro winner of 2012 Poconos Ironman 70.3 (son was amateur winner) and one with me and the pro, Jesse Thomas, who is adorable and a new Dad.</p>
<p>Kudos Eddie. Great work!
MomWC, looks like a blast!
Can’t figure out the pic though as there aren’t any grey shorts in pic number 38, but I get the general idea :)</p>
<p>Looks like the pictures are changed and reordered. Oh well.</p>
<p>Local tri store does a satellite underwear run to benefit diabetes research. We did it one year. I was the oldest person by a good ten years. One of my sons won a prize for best costume----essentially for being the nakedest. </p>
<p>Good times,</p>
<p>MOfWC, it sounds like your family is enjoying Kona so far You definitely needed some sunshine. Undie run - what a hoot! I am glad I took a peek at the photos yesterday since it looks like they have been messed with. I wisely found a quiet corner and opened the photos on my iPhone; otherwise, my coworkers could have thought that I was checking out something notsoworkappropriate.
</p>
<p>Good luck to WC on conquering the ocean and the lava fields!</p>
<p>Better this time of year for the undie runners than those polar bear plunge events! Brrrrr.</p>
<p>Any run in my underwear I can guarantee would be at warp speed. Really would like to be in Hawaii right now! Cool and rainy here, so another day on the treadmill. 5.39 miles.</p>
<p>Underwear run… That would be a good excuse to buy something really expensive “Honey, but I really need this $200 bra to train for my race!” LOL.</p>
<p>Not a great running week for me…</p>
