Winter training starts

Saturday was the last race of the 2011 season.  I finished 4th in a 5k with a time of 17:29.  I went out way too hard, but was happy with how it went.  I'm confident I can go sub 17 next year.

I will be doing a 13.1 in March, so I'm starting the Jack Daniels plan.  It's mostly 5 days of easy running and two days of quality workouts per week.  The quality workouts can be a long run, intervals, or tempo runs mixed with easy runs.

I started biking again...ouch...I don't even want to know what my FTP is :).  The plan is to do easy riding this month and start training hard again next month.

Psyched with the progress on ErgDB.  I'm close to launching the standalone mode for people who do not have a Erg trainer.  They will be able to download workouts and get a heads up display.  Next is "Google Earth Videos"  -which will show a route on google earth and synced up to a workout (can't control the device and google earth though).
