1st week of the Great Virtual Race Across Tennessee 1000K is done! 66.8 miles!

Well! The 1st crazy wk done! Dragged my 50 yr old corpse through 66.8mi during the 1st wk of the #GVRAT1000K.

I give myself an A-. Yeah, I'm shameless that way.

2nd wk? More adaptation. After 4 wks, there's no stopping me!

Honored to join you lunatics in this! #statenisland pic.twitter.com/RJtmnQTJZK

So a friend threw this virtual race my way. This is modeled from the Last Great Vol State race, the summer race across TN.#Running 1000K, 3 months, $60. They have a virtual map to chart progress.

Who will join me in this craziness?#ultrarunning https://t.co/ThkZFzJ5bs pic.twitter.com/8qU5ZXlQGk

The trick to having a productive day is to have a very productive 1st hour. The rest of the day will then be fine. I'll tell you what to do in order to ensure a productive 1st hour.https://t.co/5LGmLYilmt #sundaythought #sundaymotivation #statenisland #ny #sundayvibes pic.twitter.com/c9CQ3VAYHc

Motivation - That First Hour of the Day is Important!

How to get motivated...do or at least start one of your key tasks in the 1st hour of your day.

This gives the day a sense of purpose that you can carry through to the rest of the day.

A vid on this soon; it is 1 of the most important things to do.

Ironman VR#2 will start tomorrow. Get those sprinting legs ready!

Just a mention that #Ironman VR2 will be starting tomorrow at 6GMT, or 2PM EDT and ending Sunday. It is Oly Distance, with a 3k run, a 40k bike, and a 10k run.

It's good way to get motivated again, if your training dropped off.#triathlon #statenislandhttps://t.co/bD0ufl4KbI pic.twitter.com/DqSgKRrecq

Looks like Virtual Racing will be the only Competition in 2020

#Ironman Virtual Race #1 started yesterday at 12GMT (1400 EDT). Distances are 5K Run, 90K bike, half marathon. Yesterday I got the 5K done (23:55). This AM, roads were wet so decided to do the half mara (1:40:50). Will finish the 90K bike tomorrow. #anywhereispossible #triathlon pic.twitter.com/ABlyKKxgHE

Finished the 100 x 100 Meters on 100 Seconds Workout!

Did the 100 x 100 meters on 100 seconds workout!

Here is the video of my 100x100 meter swim on 100 seconds. Hopefully I turned a monotonous 3 hour workout into something worth watching. 😁

Will maybe do it next year.

Happy New Year everyone!
