Good morning BT!

4:30am:  :60 mins on the KK, solid effort

5:30am:  :40 minutes upper body strength

HR--that stinks about the chemical spill!  I hope you're able to do the full triathlon!

Susan I say go for the sprint--if nothing else it'll be just a fun day!

Have a great day BT!

So far the swim is still on. Not sure how reassured I am by the word from our LBS mechanic when I went to pick Rover up (he's been dismantled and packaged for the plane): "It's safe, because the Hong Kong government sent a bunch of officials there for the May Day holiday, and they all went swimming yesterday." Uh-HUH. I remember being so happy when that shop opened because it's run by Taiwanese and the mechanic speaks Chinese (so do I--used to teach it; lived there for a decade), so I can actually communicate with him. Now I'm not so sure!

Anyhow, just 1500m of swimming today, which, bafflingly, took less than 26 minutes although all but 300m was easy effort. Maybe I counted wrong, or taper is really messing with me.

No complaints--still healthy as of today. May be a different story after the race, though!

Some short cycle commute rides and about a half hour running at lunchtime for me. Very cute puppy Kim!

Hey there!

5:30am - 6 mile run/walk. Getting stronger but staying slow and steady. Nice to finally hit the 6 mile mark after a long time of building up!

That's it. Technically I'm tapering, since I'm part of a Duathlon relay this Sunday, so no ST for me, other than PT.

1500 yard swim. I felt good considering I haven't swam in over a month.

HR- good luck in the race. Let us know how it goes
