Anyone racing this weekend?

I'm racing the half, but am going in SERIOUSLY under-trained. No rides over an hour since Ironman Louisville last year! It's going to be funny to watch!

I think I'm going to adopt a new motto:

Severely undertrained, but highly optimistic!

How did you do? I ran the Sprint on Sunday and did, ok. the swim part sucked. Very choppy and I think I drank half the lake.

I just saw this Ronnie. Holy cow! You raced sub 5 hours with that little training? Impressive.

I'm way under trained and fighting nagging injuries but I went ahead and signed up for the Raleigh half "just for fun".

CEJFNP, thanks for asking! It went OK. At mile 40, I was hurting bad from the wind and the lack of riding. I couldn't wait to get off the bike!

Scott, my only goal was to go sub 5. It almost didn't happen as I really struggled on the bike. I rode way too hard for my level of fitness and when the wind picked up at mile 35, I really suffered.

My first triathlon was at age 56. At first I was just the cameraman at my daughter's first triathlon, then I am doing the races that she has done.

While adequate protein is important in your sports diet, protein should take its place as the accompaniment to carbs (grains, fruits, vegetables) in each meal and snack.

The first time I ventured into the deep murky green lake and could not see the bottom my muscles tensed and my imagined fears surfaced. What exactly lies beneath?

Training in the cold can be effective and fun with some planning. Overall, prepare for the environment, stay hydrated and dry, listen to your body and have a great safe cold weather outing.
