 | sprint triathlon race | |
| |
| will break this apart when they posts the splits, but had my usual slow swim, tried to push hard on the bike, lots of hills in the first 5 miles, and then paid for it in the run. still good for 1st in age group, of course there were only 7 in that age group, and the fast ones go for the longer distances.
Good tune up for the sprint in 2 weeks. Will do more running and bricks in the meantime. |

 | swimming 1:00:00 [2] | |
| |
| 250 warmup, 2 x 100 arms only, 2 x 50 legs only, 400 'time trial' 25 seconds faster than last years pool time - not a miracle but progress. 2 x 50 cool down. (+?) SLIGHT FLUE-LIKE SYMPTOMS FROM CHLORINE. not as good as last time. |
 | Note | |
| |
| I can't believe I weigh 152 pounds. I feel fat. Weird. Maybe I'm anorexic. But I have a belly roll, I can see it, yet I weigh 152, the lightest I've been since colorado/wyoming last summer. Without colorado/wyoming. Actually I think even 145 or 142 would be fine. When I cant see the belly roll I'll begin to worry. |

| I hope people around here realize its like the 5th 'orange' level ozone day in a row, and that working out in those peak times (12-7pm) can damage your respiratory system.
Yesterday I rode home from the pool, extremely slowly at 6:45pm, and could still feel it. My throat is an excellent indicator of ozone level! I have made the mistake of training and even racing in bad conditions, and had my throat flash dried. Yesterday, it was only a little sore. |
