Anybody else a lazy turd ?
Can't Post
It's what, 3 weeks to IMFL ? I've skipped 2 workouts this week so far, nevermind how many I've skipped since January 1st.
I've mostly been skipping the run workouts, telling myself I'll make it up on the weekend.
Really, I've just stopped caring, resorting myself to being a turd.
So, is anybody else a lazy turd this late in the game ?

That would be a NO! I am doing Florida also and have not missed any workouts. As a matter of fact I've done a few extra. You need to HTFU before you get flushed! ;-)

LOL
While I haven't done extra's, I've certainly done some good make-up training. I did 2 century's back-to-back 2 weekends ago. I wish I had done more 20 mile runs though...
P.S. I know make-up workouts aren't great, but hey, I'm fighting against deployments here !

yes I'm a lazy turd but I'm still training. I have myself convinced that if I take more than 1 day off in a row then I'll stop training all together and resort back to my old fat self. That ain't gonna happen. I like being a skinny(er) lazy turd than a fat lazy turd. With the former, no one knows that I am a lazy turd but myself, with the latter everyones assumes that I am.

Don't sweat it.
Your best bet is to not stress yourself out over missed workouts. Just make sure that about two weeks out from race date you make sure and do everything you can to make up the missed workouts. Lots of long runs, huge bricks and tempo work will get you where you need to be. Remember, what you've done the last 9 months has nothing to do with race day, it's how hard you push yourself the week before that counts ;)

You'd better get back on that horse or be prepared to have your DREAMS CRUSHED!
I'm a bit of lazy turd right now but I don't have an IM coming up in a couple of weeks. I am however going skiing in Switzerland, not much training required for fondue and beer!

I hear ya.
It's not that I haven't been training, just being a turd on a few of sessions. Though I'm shooting for 13 hours max, I have no doubts that I can finish in one piece +/- 1 hour.
