I have to say that it weird for me that so many in the MG are done with your tri-seasons. Besides Sunday's sprint, I still have the Nation's Tri on 9/12 in DC, and Augusta 9/26. Depending on how that goes I might add a half in Washington, NC on 10/30.



Some of us were done before we started...just sayn'  


I envy those of you that have had a full race season.  I have been living vicariously (sp?) through you guys.  It is great to hear about the awesome races and the tribulations.

Before I got into tri's I really looked forward to the fall running season.  In the ATL area if you can't find a race....then you ain't lookin'.  Not as easy to find a local tri but it is getting better.

Good luck this weekend to all those who are racing and train hard for those that are not.

Happy Saturday Peeps!

Good luck to those racing already (Dino) and those racing today and tomorrow....bring home the brass ring!

I'm off for the start of my last big breakthrough training weekend.  Got up at 2am to eat a 1/2 PBJ and 6oz of CM which presumably I'll do for IM (probably more) and the back up at 4am to drink coffee (TG!), eat more breakfast, pack my stuff to head out for a B/R/B.  It's a relatively short one today and then heading the 3:30 back to Madison later this afternoon to prep for my last 120m/1:30 effort on the IM course tomorrow.  Been a really good and interesting training cycle and I've loved most all of it, but boy am I ready for IM to be here!  Happy trails.

I just raced a 5 mile run and was 1st in my age group with a time of 39.32. Not bad after a 22 mile training run yesterday.  My daughter ran it as her first race and came in 2nd in her age.  I am proud of her and I hope she gained some confidence today!
My pool is closed for the next week so I will have to hop on the bike tomorrow and put in more biking miles.

Linda ~ Congrats to you and your daughter...Awesome!!

Kyla ~ You aren't joking...that is crazy!

Today was my birthday so I celebrated in several ways. First I got up and went for a run. Then my hubby, kiddo and I went to a park here that is more like a farm. Watching my daughter laugh and smile like she does when around animals just makes my heart melt! After coming home and putting her down for a nap I took a little nap myself then woke up and went for a ride over and met everyone at my SILs house for a birthday celebration for my niece (whose birthday is tomorrow) and myself. Can I just say what a great day!?!

WOOT!  first bike race in the books.

Got lucky number 13 and it  rained, but I have all my skin and finished just behind the main group.  Should have finished with them but stupid mistake on my part put me in a bad spot right when the group accelerated and I didn't have anything to accelerate with...

That many bikes in that close a space is pretty intimidating, not the same as a group ride at all.

Avg speed 24.9 Mph
Max speed 34.7
Avg watts 227
Max watts 912
Normalized power 262

LOL best 60 seconds is 385 watts.

Might have to do a few more of these next year, learned some good stuff to place better next time.  Doing a RR here in a few.

I finally made it back home from the Great River Relay....The team made it.....192 running miles done on about 3 hours of sleep and had a blast doing it.  

Got to put in some family time tonight so I hope to get caught up on posts and get a RR put together tomorrow.

Be good.

Great job man, how many miles did you end up with.  I've thought about doing one of those long relay races in the past but schedule wise never worked out.
