Hey ya’ll - 6 weeks to Ironman Texas! It’s also baseball season. Combining kids’ baseball (2 boys play baseball, daughter runs track, one of the boys plays in two teams) and Ironman training takes a master of planning.
Any other parents with baseball kids? You know these weekend games are insane. So I’ve had to take a plan and play with it. This means I won’t be doing my Vo2 max sessions every wednesday anymore, but have to schedule those for those crazy baseball weekends, and prioritize longer sessions during the week.
So this week I’m inviting you to join me for Friday morning long race pace rides. We will be rubber banded so it doesn’t matter if you are riding zone 2 or zone 5! Anyone interested joining me for a bit or 4.5 hours on Friday CT US time - aim to start 9 am-ish but I’m flexible.
Woot woot, friendly invitation to join our Wednesday HIIT hosted by moi, MJ aka Tired Mom Runs
When: 8:30 am CT (6:30am PST)
What: warm up 20mins
2x 8x 40/20 (40s all out effort /20s catching your breath and wondering why you did this to yourself)
3 min easy
It was a blast to have you - after our initial tech issues, lol
Yes, I completely forgot to ask you if you’ve been testing it out. Next time! I hit -7% - those three last reps were so hard! Well done and so nice to meet you
Usually I get on the bike by then. I work remotely, and usually all the kids are off school by then. It depends if I am dropping off my son or not. Please send an invite and I’ll look at my schedule next week.
Wednesday warriors!
8:30am (ct) get ready to get your pump ticking and legs spinning as we take on something fun dr. Laursen has crafted for us. One of the ways to skin the proverbial cat - and have fun:
20 min warm up
3x 5x 40sec hard (know your target w but be ready to just give your best effort for 40s) / short 20s recovery - listen to your body… get ready to go again. 3 min easy in between series.
Who is in? Please show up 10 mins before to iron out kinks- they always seem to happen let me know (send pm) if you are joining us and I will send you google meet link as well.
Well that was fun ! @MarkB@SoCal1x@cmaloney@SimpleEnduranceCoach@amn2099
Thank you for joining me this morning and being so patient with all the start up issues to make things run a little bit smoother next week, I’ve created a WhatsApp group to share the google meet link for easier access for everyone.
I just need to shuffle the deck on baseball weekends to make everything happen…
does that work for you?
just like my situation then! Kids out the house and off the school and then fun times 
I will send you the details!
