~Swim~Bike~Run~: July 2008
http://robynkarlage.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 30, 2008. Holy Crap. It's getting close. But due to my lack of motivation (though it is getting better), I decided to post pictures of Junior instead. He's been really enjoying his kennel lately, which is odd because I almost sold it. He never used it, up until the last few weeks. He's so dang cute! He makes me so happy :) So freakin cute! Post bath time. Which Soccer ball do I play with? Monday, July 28, 2008. This quite accurately reflects this week of training. My coach is AWESOME....

Thursday, March 27, 2008. I'm so excited. So ready to race. I've been training for 3 months now, in preparation for IM. And I want to see how my training is paying off. Sure, I can determine this by my test weeks, but its just not as fun! It's a sprint tri. Down at Ole Miss, but I am determined to blow my time out of the water from last year. I went a 1:20 ish. 2 miles. Ok. Maybe cutting 10 minutes may be asking too much with the lengthening of the course, but I'm excited nonetheless. I can't wait! Brain...

Sunday, November 16, 2008. I am here, in the flesh.borrowing the roomie's computer. I really really really hope to get my computer de-bugged here in the near future, because frankly I'm going insane. Once I stop napping for so long on the weekends (4 hours today! I'll get it done. Dec 1 I start training with coach again. I'll update soon on my schedule for next year, my team change, and overall life, including how I made a client throw up in the middle of the workout floor the other day.

~Swim~Bike~Run~: October 2008

Thursday, October 2, 2008. An open letter to the people at my (and probably all) gyms. Dear Sir or Madam,. This is me, a personal trainer at the gym in which you workout. You may think no one is watching you, but I see you. I'm very sneaky about it, but while I train others, I can see what you're doing. I'm going to point you out specifically in this post:. I can't even explain in words what you do, but I've never seen anything like it, and I think you should just pack that up, and head over to the swiss.

Tuesday, January 27, 2009. Random thoughts on a Tuesday. I want to be Jillian from the Biggest Loser. I'm getting closer because I was so close to making a male client cry yesterday. I love love love my new devotional book. I have enjoyed two straights days sans napping. High maintenance clients annoy me. I almost punted a beagle last night for trying to eat Junior. I should really fold the laundry on my floor. I'm pissed that my two late clients canceled tonight. Junior's paws smell like people feet.

~Swim~Bike~Run~: December 2007
http://robynkarlage.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 31, 2007. 1 training session down, 429 to go (or something like that). Day 1 is over! I'm one step closer to IM! Alright, maybe I shouldn't be. Excited. Or maybe I should :). It was a good workout day. Started the day out with Aunt Martha at the gym. 8am. That's the earliest I've woken up (7am) since I've been home. But it felt great. We did the eliptical for 30 minutes, and then lifted upper body. I also taught her my favorite thing ever: Swiss ball pikeups! And we were wearing shirts.

Tuesday, August 26, 2008. BIG DAY is fast approaching. WOW I freaking leave in 2 days. So much has to be done before then, and all I really feel like doing is nothing (i.e. resting). I'm getting my hyper taper energy, but its always at the end of work at 24 hour fitness. Weird. But aside from all the stress of normal living.I am getting excited for race day. Once I'm on the road Thursday, I will feel much better and much more focused on it. So, in honor of the BIG DAY coming up, here are a fe...It hasn't...

~Swim~Bike~Run~: February 2008
http://robynkarlage.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 29, 2008. It's the week before Spring Break, and I think no matter what, that week is always crazy! I felt like I had a million things to do, and I went to bed Monday night and woke up Thursday morning. I was definitely happy with that. Wednesday was my bike test. Warmup. My pace was somewhere around 15.5, and for the trainer, I think that's decent! Bars and almost threw up and passed out at the same time. Then I thought "Oh. nevermind. Overall, it was good. It's a rest week! But, it was...

Friday, May 30, 2008. I can't think of a creative title for this post, so deal with it. First off, I just made a KICK A$ LASAGNA! It's about as healthy as lasagna can get: Whole wheat pasta, Turkey meat, and low fat ricotta cheese, among other things. I've gotten several compliments from people including my roommate and his girlfriend, myself, and Junior. I'd say that's pretty solid. Also good news today: I'm a finalist for the St. Jude job! I actually knew this yesterday because I contacted the doctor I...
