It would usually be a swim in the morning and a run at night, or bike/run, etc. I sometimes run twice a day too, usually one super-easy and one a harder workout. My night time shower usually takes about 120 seconds, just enough to rinse off because I am usually starving!Laura @ LunaChick Runshttp://lunachickruns.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9151121726336406894.post-20051979378177034772012-03-26T11:18:49.628-04:002012-03-26T11:18:49.628-04:00I love the feeling when I work out twice a day!

PLEASE ...Hey girl, can I make a small observation? PLEASE don't quit being my bloggy friend though - here's what I have I have observed . . . <br />Every time you talk about hikes and trails and trail running your posts have a different tone - you sound genuinely happy and free and joyful. Not to say that when you talk about road running you're a grump (because that's definitely not true), but you definitely sound more "at home" or "at peace" or just plain happier when you run on trails over roads . . . perhaps you're true calling is to be a trail runner and not so much of a road racer? I MUCH prefer running trails over roads. If I could solely run trails I'm pretty sure I would. Okay so don't hate me, k? <br /><br />Rugby? They play that with a net on the end of a pole, right? Just kidding! Never watched more than a few minutes of a game and never on tv. Yay for your brother - how cool!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15432550406970940247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9151121726336406894.post-78596012798033233212012-03-26T08:15:25.795-04:002012-03-26T08:15:25.795-04:002 a days are a staple in tri training and it's...2 a days are a staple in tri training and it's hard to get my head around sometimes.

I do it sometimes and honestly everything I've found is that it's actually harder to run twice with a break than it is to do the same distance all at once. I think it's mostly because your legs have to get loose twice and you have to put forth more effort the second time around to do thatMeg O @watchmegorunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14578457264702590988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9151121726336406894.post-3836361293979435022012-03-26T04:59:59.077-04:002012-03-26T04:59:59.077-04:00My brother played about 15 minutes in the Hong Kon...My brother played about 15 minutes in the Hong Kong sevens about 20 odd years ago; it was not a main game but I think it was a north vs south mixed international team & the south had someone injured and none to play & because it was so informal big bro was called in from the stand .... he revels in it still to this day & because my aunt & uncle in Australia saw him on telly playing it must be a true story :-)BabyWilthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04514458601141900410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9151121726336406894.post-90555694434034427512012-03-26T02:20:17.158-04:002012-03-26T02:20:17.158-04:00Funny you should mention a two-a-day.
