Rob PMFF Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Was Sunwarrior the stuff you were having problems with gelling? I bought some and it did that yesterday. It was disgusting. Did you figure out how to keep that from happening? Other than just drinking it quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryStella Posted February 23, 2011 Author Share Posted February 23, 2011 @gl - Yeah those clif bars have a lot more fat than most bars. It doesn't bother me becuase I eat a lot of fat. Most likely be cause that is their low glygemic bar so it higher protein higher fat less carbs than most energy bars. All depends on what your going for with your nutrition. I don't normally eat more than 1 in a day but I starving yesterday and it was all i had available at the time so I did 2. @rob - no it was vega that i was having the issues with. However, I have used sunwarrior in the past. Personally I like vega better. I found the "gelling" happens with soymilk. If you use a different kind of liquid, hemp milk, rice milk, coconut water, water etc. you should be ok. Also watch the fruit to liqiud content. too much fruit = chunky obviously. And also the adds in. if your throwing in ground flax or nuts that thickens it up too. but your right the faster you drink it the thinner it is. wod 1 - bike on trainer - 13 minute warmup. then 9 minutes on 3 minutes off 7 minutes on 3 minutes off 5 minutes on. 7 minute cooldown. wod 2 - "helly" this was modified so much i can't even call it Kelly5 rounds of Row 400 meters (supposed to be a run)30 steps up onto a 24 inch box (supposed to be box jumps)30 wallballs - 14lb ball @ 9 ft targettime - 34.44 meal 1 - tofu, spinach ,guacamolemeal 2 - vega wfo w/coconut meal 3 - soysage, broccoli, clif builder bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaryStella Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 Thanks! Bike - had my class this morning. Got damon hooked up with his new garmin sensor. sadly I couldn't get it to work during the class because it was picking up other sensors but after the class I got it to work so I will have data again for me rides. Yippee. Gonna keep me honest. main sets of the class today were an 8 minute TT at 100 percent effort. a 10 minute hill climb hard gear low cadence grind. and a 5 minute high cadence spin .There was other riding involved too not sure how much before of the sensor issue. legs are always cooked after this class. Run - 3.5 miles. Still slow going! I need someone to run behind me with a taser or something. had to immediately get to the pool to get my swim wod in. Foot was a little sore afterwards. Oddly my left leg bothers me more than my right foot. Swim - 300 drills to warmup, catch, shark and hesitate. My lats and shoulder were killing me for the entire time in the pool. Strangely they were not hurting at all until I started swimming. I think it is was from the cf wods yesterday. 500 pull, 5 x 100s at race pace on 20 seconds rest. Swam these at 1:40. Not sure if that was my race pace or not but I wasn't feeling speedy in the pool tday. finished off with 500 easy. meal 1 - clif builder barmeal 2 - tempeh, spinach, red peppersmeal 3 - vega wfo w/coconut watermeal 4 - 2 mexican pizza (black beans, tomatoes, cabbage), peanut butter im register to race the "run for the red" marathon as part of a relay team. This is the course that Ironman Pocono mountain is using so I wanted to get out on the course before IMPM and check it out. This will be a half-mary a few weeks before eagleman. Really hope my running gets better and fast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lobsteriffic Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Cool on the relay marathon! When is the IMPM? Are you racing that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryStella Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 Yes I am racing Ironman Pocono Mountain. It is in my backyard! It is on October 2nd. But I wanted to get a stand alone half-mary race in before eagleman in june so the timing and the location for this relay marathon worked out well. Should be fun times.

MaryStella Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 no it is 70.3. I am not signing up for a full until my foot in completely recovered and not an issue. I don't want to push it too much too soon. Thinking about lake Placid in 2012. Going up to Placid to train on the race this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnboy74 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 meal 5 - hummus, steamed broccoli, peanut butterI'm intrigued, I love all those things, how did you combine them in a meal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryStella Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 so good to meet another vegan atheist! What I do is i steam broccoli and then I dip it in hummus while I am eating it. Then I just love peanut butter so I eat it out of the jar. Gross I know. But True. Most of the time you see peanut butter listed in my meals I am just eating it out of the jar.
