Let's go with Random this morning

So it has been exactly 4 weeks since Timberman and I have settled into the Off Season life. My life has become unstructured and random:

My diet:

• 4 Cider Donuts at the Orchard this past weekend? I could have and should have eaten more!
• EDIT: Kevin @ IronmanByThirty mentioned to me that there is the Le Tour de Donut up in Michigan....aka a 30 mile bike race where for every donut eaten, 3 mins is deducted from your time! No pukie awards allowed or else a greasy DQ. Road trip anyone?!?!?
  
• I am eating at least 1 slice of Apple Pie each day, but mostly I am eating two slices a day. You know, to keep the weight off?
• I still eat a ton of fruit
• I made some rice, egg, bacon and cheese bars. They were disgustingly bland! #FAIL

Working out:

• If you look to the top left of my blog, you can see my daily workout schedule. It has been tough!
• My FTP is increasing daily, as is my beer consumption.
• I have the dolphin kicking technique down. Kicking on your back is HARD. Did you know you have muscles in your back? ;)
• I have had 2 recent runs with ZERO foot pain before, during, or after.
• I ran 4 miles yesterday, the most in 3 weeks. #SCORE
• I think bad shoes slowed the healing process #THROWNBADSHOESINGARBAGE
  
• On the bike, I am reconning new roads this fall for next year. I am planning on previewing some road this weekend that has like an 8 mile slow downhill. #SWEET!
  

Other random things:
This is a great post about "Open-Water Mixed Martial Arts." YOU have most likely been a participant this year.

Finally, If you are doing an Ironman distance race next year, stop by the new blog 201Ironman and join us! If you tried sending Kevin an email and it got bounced back, try again. He fixed his email link! Thanks to all of you new followers of the site!
