Subject: RE: kaburns1214 Mentor Group 2012 - CLOSEDWow I had a lot to catch up on! First..carrie- I'm so jealous you are doing the goofy challenge! enjoy it, is also something i hope to do sometime in life. all of the yearly totals are SO impressive.. i am not a very experience triathlete and have actually never logged any miles or hours of anything. 17 years of swimming just doing what a coach tells you, and never following a true marathon/running plan, I've never really done that. i guess 2012 is a year to start! just got a new bike trainer for christmas, figuring out exactly how to use it is something I'm still working at, but have gone on a few rides so far. bringing a tv to medical school so i can watch lectures while riding on saturdays. went on many runs with my dad over break that have been so nice that planned 8:50 pace long runs somehow just end up being 8:17! so excited to be on my way/beginning training for IMLP this summer, but hoping my biking inexperience isn't making all of this biting of more than i can chew! hoping to improve my knowledge and skills throughout these next 30 weeks. happy new year everyone, and here's to 2012, a great year of training and racing (and life in general) for all. |
