4.2.16 Super Saturday!

A 4 mile run and 30 minutes in the pool. My first swim this year. I hope everyone enjoys the weekend.

Softly falling snow during a nice run with 5 hills, about 14 km. Next weekend it's suppose to be getting above freezing. Yahooo!!

Changed it up a bit and went out for a run this morning. Still so gorgeous out, can't resist this weather!

7:30am - 5 mile run/walk

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

I'm a little late posting, but 70.3 California has been officially marked off my list. I have to say it was no easy task and I certainly did not plan for all the obstacles. I feared the swim, but had my best swim ever at that distance. Bike on the other hand was not a solid has I would hoped, but considering that there were some massive hills and 2750ft overall climbing, I thought I did ok. I actually had to walk my bike about 1/2 mile up this crazy steep hill. I only saw a couple people actually ride up it, so I didn't feel so bad, but really sucked the time out of it. The run was also lot of up steep little hills, but it was the shooting pain in my back and side that killed me for that piece, so lot's of walking instead of running.

At the end of the day, and with the negatives, I finished will a smile on my face and an official time of:
