Half Way There

Half way there. Yes it is true. I haven't posted anything in 3 years, but the fire hasn't died and I completed my first Half Iron Distance Triathlon. The PPD Beach2Battleship Triathlon is a great event benefiting the Wilmington, NC YMCA. Next year I will be doing the full. I am going to chronicle my journey to Iron Distance GLORY!!! Stand by for more about my race and plans for the off season! See ya soon!

Terre Haute Tri

It has been a week since my lastest race. I cut 17 minutes off of my previous time, but I could have done better with more training. I am stepping it up so I can do at least one more race this year.

It has been pretty rainy and nasty outside, but I did get a ride on the trainer yesterday, and had a windy run today. Less then a month to the Terre Haute Triathlon

Back

I am back on because I have a race in less than a month. I am better prepared then 2 years ago, but I want to be more fit so I can cut 30 min off of my old time. I think I'll get there. Let ya know.

Update Sept 30

I have run the last 2 days. I am still strugling with a chest cold, so the running has not been great. I have not lost any more weight, but I have not gained any either so I am satisfied. I'll be on again soon for an update.

Sept 11, 2010

The Mighty Mississinewa Tri is in the books. I finshed 113 of 288 over all and 7 of 23 in the Clydedale division. I averaged 19.2 MPH in the bike, and 9:22 min per mile in the run. The swim wasn't as good as I wanted it, but I made up the time on the bike. I am starting my Half training this week and my target race weight is 197 lbs. I'll let you know how it goes.

Home Sweet Home

Yes, I am home, and completely happy. I have been running, but have not been able to ride yet. I am competing in a Sprint Triathlon this weekend, and feel confident in doing well. I know I won't win, but a top 100 is possible. Next week is Disney, so I may not do a lot of training and you can guarantee that I won't be posting next week. Can you blame me. I will keep you all updated this week, and I will post my results when I am done. Have a great week.
