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.

30 Aug

Oh sweet Lord I am grateful I get to go home. I leave tomorrow morning, and can not wait. Ok back on focus I did weigh in this morning and I am satisfied. 224.9 lbs. That means 28 LBS since I arrived in country. The chore in front of me is to continue the progress at home, but I Will Succeed because Quit Don't Work. I will be back on once I get settled at home. Have a blessed week.
