Subject: RE: Who is Racing this Weekend - 10/10 - 10/13I'm finishing my long competitive season (one race per month from March to October ) with the Day at the Beach Tri this Sunday in Hermosa Beach, CA. I'm hoping to lower my PRs in the swim (1/4 mile ocean swim ) and on the bike (10 miles, flat ) this year (4th year of doing this race ), and then just survive the run (3 miles, flat, on concrete... oh, yeah, and some stairs ). A recent hamstring strain has killed my run training for the past 2 weeks, and is still a factor. If this weren't my last race I'd consider skipping it. But if I do wreck myself, I'll have all the time I need to recover for next March's season opener. Damn the torpedoes... |
