Let me get this straight--you did each of those exercises as a tabata interval??? The most I do is 2 four minute tabatas, and on most days, I can't force myself to even do that!

So excited about your running! Isn't that something, how your life has changed in just a few years?

Your workouts are more than a little scary. You're one tough lady after being able to do all of that. Glad I'm on your good side. :P

I'm scared to even get excited about the you-know-what. I dreamed about that medal last night. If I were as fit as you it would be a no brainer. I bet the feeling of finishing would be beyond description.

Wow, that Tabata sounds intense!! I did a triathlon once, but won't do it again - not much of a swimmer! The look on my husband's face was priceless - pure relief I made it out of the lake!

Hooray for Jeff to do this with you!!!

The duathalon sounds COOL!

Is the 6K, a water for Haiti run? They are doing one in Atlanta that same day that I am considering doing...I don't love the idea of the drive, but I have a friend in the hospital there and I would be able to spend the day after the race with him.

I want to be like you when I grow up.

I would be so confused with all those different exercises and work outs but I'm sure it is SO good for your body and for switching things up! Do I see a half-marathon in your future??

2010-03-10T14:23:52.425-06:00

Just reading about Tabata makes all my muscles ache! And then you went out and ran a 1/2 mile after, impressive! That is really exciting about all of your 5K events.

2010-03-10T13:48:51.024-06:00

Wow Shelley: running has finally got you :)

What a great events that you have planned to do, especially the duathlon.

I'm looking forward to your stories about it and will be here cheering for you!

2010-03-10T12:47:04.218-06:00

That's so great Shelley! It is so fun to be in the event and get medals and collect all those bibs!

So proud of you! The dualthon sounds good too!

Duathlon! Yay - I am jumping up and down for you!...

2010-03-10T12:45:53.038-06:00

Duathlon! Yay - I am jumping up and down for you! You should shoot for a whole one for yourself some time.

It is so different being on the participant side of races now. You know what will be even weirder? After you run a bunch of races, if you go to watch one, it will feel strange being back on the sidelines LOL

Great work Shelley! Working out is always better ...

2010-03-10T12:43:07.402-06:00

Great work Shelley! Working out is always better when you make it fun and it would appear that is exactly what you are doing!
WTG!

Keep inspiring me!

Tabata should be the name of a Japanese food restaurant.

And I'm glad you're no longer just a spectator of life, but a zealous participant.

2010-03-10T11:58:53.516-06:00

Tabata sounds like it should be called something else, like "Tryin' to kill ya"!

I've never done box jumps, but the thought terrifies me. I have short legs, and I know where my shins would land...right on that edge! You're a brave woman!

That 5K/12K/5K sounds fun...and lucky you, you have someone else to do the biking!

I'll bet you could do all of it all by yourself in 2.5 hours!
