2 mile swim today in 1:08. Puts me at around 1:25 for IMLP

Quick paced 6 miler, but felt rather easy, hmmmm could be the day off yesterday.

First brick, sort of. 11 miles of hill repeats (avg speed of 9.8 mpg - gross) on the bike followed by a 2 mile run (15:10) to pick up daughter at school.

Longish ride with lots of hills - went out with friend today - felt pretty comfortable for the most part.

20 laps with the wetsuit. felt like i was gonna die. Need to consider a sleeveless suit.

Easy tempo 6 miler in season personal best of 44:48. WHo would have thought I would be doing personal bests after I turned 40?

3.4 Mile hill run. Not bad but tight from this weeks total workouts.

3.4 mile run right after dinner at the diner. Painful and cold with lots of cramps.

Scott - You are doing great! Apparently it's just you and me still here!

Thanks - looks that way.

Swim workout - 500 w/u 250 breast/5x50 sprints (avg :50)/250 c/d

did a tough 3 miler this mornng in 25:37. Had so much trouble getting out the door.

Did a 3.4 mile hill run this morning in 26:37. Still having trouble getting out the door and getting loose. No problems waking up though. Hmmmm.

Just picked up a used Blue Seventy Reaction full suit from a friend to try out this weekend in the pool. Havent tried it on yet, but man is it way lighter then the two piece suite I currently have. Lets keep our fingers crossed that it works for me.

Tried out the new wetsuit. Wow it is amazing. Felt comfortable, unrestricted and not fatigued at the end. Yes I started overheating, but the pool is warm to begin with. Did my faster 1000m swim ever in 18:04 2 minutes faster then previous. A pace of 1:48/100m.

Nice long wandering bike ride. But man was it hot out there today.

Went out for 3.5 mile run at 6 am and the skies opened up. Felt great to run in the rain.

Last night I did a 1 mile wetsuit swim tonight n 29:44 which sets me up fo a 1:12 ironman. Weird thng is in the wetsuit my forearms get tired pretty quickly.

I did a 34 minute hill ride this morning. 6.34 miles, 2 loops. Last time did 3 loops avg speed of 10 mph. Today avg speed was 11. Apparently I got chafed last night on my neck from the wetsuit workout. Didn't realize till I rode this mornin. Guess I need cream with the wetsuit. Not bad chafiing but definitely noticeable.

relativel fast paced 4.5 mile run tonight at RPE of 4 in 33:44 a 7:28 per mile pace last night

Steady 40 lap swim this morning. Felt pretty good, but the people in the lane next to me were passing me like I wasnt even moving.

Did a steady 6 mile run last night. Pretty comfortable. Awaiting my new running shoes being delivered today. Hopefully I can have them ready for my HIM next week. I am actually starting to get nervous about that race. Constantly going over split time potentials in my head and constantly going over packing for that race. First Tri in like 7 years, so I am getting a little worked up over it.

Hey guys I started a blog - just to see if I can keep up with it.

WOW! What a difference a pair of shoes makes. Just tried out my new Asics Speedstar 4 sneakers I got in the mail today. Went for a 3.4 mile run and did not push myself. I was aiming for a sub 27 minute rune. Are you ready for this? Finish time was 24:18 - a 7:09 pace and I felt fine the entire time.

Sweet! That is awesome Scott

Did 4.13 mile hill run tonight in 7:25 pace. Man I love my new shoes.

Double jogger run this morning in 8:01 pace. Tough but fun.
