apparently, i already thought of starting a blog, but, seeing as it is now spring and not November, and i will need to track my training more rigorously, i need to actual do this- blogging- stuff. if at the very least just to keep track of the ever increasing time i spent trying to get down to my time goal, which will be a 70.3 in 4:40. which is reachable, but i need to improve my run by quite a bit. if i bring down the bike again which i know i will i will be happy, but i want to be with the big dogs for the bike segment, to show i am a threat, before i over haul my run next season. not that i wont be over hauling my run this season, but a goal of running 8 min miles for a half is not nearly scary enough as it should be. i ran a 8:54 last year, and i barley ran before that event.
over the weekend i got some good riding in, not Sat. morning with the yalies, unfortunately, because stacy was in town, fortunately. i did about 30 miles in the afternoon, the fountain street route to milford and back. adv was 18 on the dot. that made me happy. on sunday i did 67 for the first time in months, gotta love those extended climbs that never end :). an hour of that to spin the legs and then home for 20 miles total, 18.2. was ok with that cuz its mostly climbing with a fun rocket ride home.
monday, yesterday, i did some ok chest weights at the gym before running 4 miles at 8 pace (sick of being so slow, but dont want to blow out my feet which have been behaving recently, despite being crushed) and then swam. im appy i have been following through on bumping up the volume of swimming i do, hope it lasts, especially when i start going every morning.
