Cross training



I want to take this opportunity to commend Karen on her excellent cross training this week. Karen participated in the Krispy Kreme challenge, a prestigious event in which competitors must run 2 mi, eat 12 donuts, and then run 2 more miles.








As you can see from the photos, Karen put up a valiant effort. She ran 2 miles, ate 6 of the donuts, and ran the final 2 miles, all in 53 minutes. Way to go! With proper training, I have no doubt that next year you will eat all 12 donuts.

Week 6 for me went as follows:

Mon: swim 3200, 40 min abs
Tues: swim 4400, run 3 mi
Wed: swim3700
Thurs: swim 4500
Fri: swim 2600
Sat: run 7 mi
Sun: swim 6600

Total: swim 25,000 yds, run 10 mi, 40 min abs

  1. Hey Kim, hope you're doing well. Not sure if you have heard about them but we're putting on some OW swims this year - www.triangleopenwater.com. I sanctioned with USAT instead of USMS, it was easier for a number of reasons. If you could let the DAMA crew know that would be great. See you around,

  2. Kimberdoo,

    Thank you so much for the advice on not putting the baby through the xray! I would not have thought of that and it would have been embarrassing!

    Sewious!
