good swim, good.

this should be the longest training week. just gotta get some of these hours and and it will all be downhill from here.

i know i haven't been able to put as much time into my training as i would like. job has been really busy and i have opted to spend some time with the family. i am not too concerned, i'm going to give it my best shot and we'll see how it goes, you know? at the very least, it will be a good time.

live for today, worry about tomorrow later. anybody else catching the tour? this is an exciting start for american cycling!

first triathlon of the season on sunday! woot woot

pros-
first tri! time to rock and roll!
runs have been going well.
i feel like i've been getting some good bike miles in.
i hope swimming with the board shorts is going to pay off.
it may be too warm for wetsuits, bwa ha ha ha. (the boss doesn't think so)

cons-
tired and sore
swims have been feeling kinda sucky
i can't really think of any more cons. bring it on!
