...and the Road is Long!!

Training is still going very well...at least I'm not hurt at this point, which is a serious step up from my previous races!! The last few weeks have been fairly busy and focused. I did participate in the Publix 1/2 marathon on March 21st...which just happened to fall on the first day of spring!!...Coincidence?...I think not! The following week was a little slow and sporadic, I felt like I was taking it easy during the race, but I have to say I sure felt it for most of the following week. I did make a few spin classes and survived, but tried to run a few times and ended up just doing short little runs, trying to loosen everything up. This week will be a pretty hard week volume wise...assuming of course I get everything done:) Check back on Sunday and I'll keep you posted!!

V8...Its Nutritious & Delicious

Great weather in the ATL led to a really nice training weekend. 70 mile bike with my friend Burt on Saturday followed by a 3 mile transition run. The actual run was slower than a frozen bottle of Aunt Jemima syrup, but ..Hey..I did complete it. Legs were super tired though!! My shin felt like my dentist shot it full of novocaine!! I followed this with an 11 mile run on Sunday, again slow, but I'm basically just going for volume at this point....at least that's my story, and I'm sticking to it!!

Good swim on Monday drills and main set consisting of ~2,000 meters. Should be a pretty hard week ahead as long as I can find the time (and energy) to accomplish everything. The week ends with a Century ride on Saturday and then the Publix 1/2 marathon on Sunday, so that should be interesting to say the least or maybe you can just label me a JACKASS ....and we'll call it a day!!

6 Months and Counting!!!

Okay, okay...I know...I have come to the realization that I TOTALLY suck at blogging. I am however a little better at training. A little less than 6 months before Louisville and overall the training is going well. I feel like I have a great base built up, so now its time to pick up the intensity and volume!!! Started 6am spin classes at ATS twice a week beginning March 1 and I can feel a big difference in my legs already....Meaning THEY ARE FUCKING tired all the time!!!!! Thanks Tony:)

Hopefully spring is here to stay, which will make training MUCH easier! I WILL try and post a little more often...but no promises!!!
