How are you feeling about the race?  I'm guessing excited.

My wetsuit arrived today.  Excited/nervious to try it on tomorrow when I get home from work. I would like to get 3-4 OWS in before the Tri.

Last night I had my very first experience with swimming in open water and swimming in a wetsuit.  

 Overall, it was such a wonderful experience and made me even MORE stoked about my triathlon!

Awesome..........

I finally get my new road bike next week. woohoo! I can then switch my bike rides to the morning and increase my distance. My tri is Aug. 14th and I'm chomping at the bit. I plan on doing either a 35 mile or 75 mile bike around Lake Tahoe in Sept. There is also a tri that spans 3 days, but I opted for the bike race. I will then have another tri in Oct. I will then be switching over to a HIM training plan (starting in Oct.) for next summer. I still plan to do a couple Oly's, but I have my ambitions set on a HIM in late summer. 

Nothing feels better than a new ride.......I would like to get a new MTB for racing, but I have a feeling that after my Tri I will want to upgrade my road bike or just buy a Tri Bike.....You can never have too many bikes.....LOL

Still alive in Michigan, just work has had me working....

I signed up for the tour challenge.  What is it we want todo?  Ride the miles fast for the team or just log the miles per day?   I ride 11 miles per day but at a slower pace for my paper route. 

I do plan on taking my rode bike out and start commuting to work 15 miles each way which will be much faster, but I'm still alittle confused on what todo.  Do we just use our training log?  Help.

A new personal best yesterday on the bike. 10 miles at 28.31 for a 21.04 mph average.

My legs were spent after and there would be no way to run after, but it felt great.

You set a challenge goal - number of stages AND number of miles/km or time.  Then you log the number of stages (rides) and the distance you rode in your log and a team spreadsheet that you will get a link to.  Pace doesn't matter at all.

Good Wednesday morning everyone, - great work out for me this morning, and a extra 2 mile run and i was thinking "what a great pace - i feel great" - still only a 10 min mile.  that was alittle bit of a let down.  Will I ever have speed in my run? 

I feel have a built a wonderful base and able to go go go, but going fast is another thing.

I have been thining about buying a HR monitor to push myself harder but am worried it will sit unused like so many other things.

Do you use a HR monitor? Cost?

TdF Challange - 10 miles yesterday - 11.55 miles today - Total: 56.55 miles

Today was one of the hardest rides I've had. I'm on a 2 week stretch at work without a day off. Almost stayed in bed.

Hang in there!  It can take a long time before you can gain speed.  Have you thought about doing speed workouts once each week now that you have a good base?

Personally, I own a HR monitor, but I don't use it.  I should probably use it more, so that I stop going just on rate of perceived exertion and maybe push myself a little more.
