Subject: Pretty excited about my self-styled training camp weekend!

The boyfriend is whooping it up in Vegas, so I'm crafting a self-styled training camp weekend, including a 3 hour open water race clinic in the Bay tomorrow and a group ride on Sunday followed by another bike lesson. To cap it off, I think I am going to do my first run since the stress fracture (May 9) tomorrow evening, as well as a trip to the sauna at my new gym.  If I can get "all three sports" in on one weekend, I'll feel like I'm really making strides towards this whole triathlon thing!

Just wanted to share my excitement.

Awesome. Keep an eye on the leg coming off the stress fracture- but then again, you already knew that...Wink

Have a good weekend training. It sounds like a lot of fun.

Personal training camp is my idea of utterly spoiling yourself.  Have a fantastic time and watch it on the running!

Cool. Hope it is going well. I got some CEP compression socks that I ran in while recovering from my stress. I think they helped quite a bit.

Imihalk- It's a femoral neck sfx, so those would be some mighty tall socks!

The OWS race clinic was awesome! We practiced run from the beach and treading starts. Practiced various types of sighting. Practiced drafting and swimming intentionally on top of/over/around/into each other. Did a couple of "race around the bouy and up onto the grass to practice T1."

We swam in excess of 1.5 miles in the bay during the clinic, which, now totally BEAT!

Of course, given that bike is my biggest fear/hurdle, the fact that we saw a woman on a rental hybrid bike so down really slow-motion on some trollycar track 20 feet away as we were finishing up, and went over to see if we could help and discovered she had a compound fracture of the femur, probably didn't do much for my bike confidence tomorrow.  But, I'm gonna do my best to suck it up!
