I have 10 weeks to train for this triathlon. At this point, I'm not in horrible shape, I have been running and doing cardio machines practically every day and I am in the Iron Maidens weight lifting club, doing free weights. This should all hopefully help.
My bike is all tuned up. The young bicycle mechanic told me my bike pretty much stinks, but this is coming from someone who probably spends thousands and thousands of $$$$ on bikes- The thing about bicycle mechanics is they are would-be plumbers with correct political thought. I was expecting to get a bit of attitude.
Nonetheless, my bike, albeit 13 years old, will do me just fine. It's now working really well and a couple of weeks before the race, I'm going to take it back in and get some special racing wheels put on to help my timing.
Today I am going to go for a long bike ride and I will time myself. My goal is to do the bike portion of the race in less than 30 minutes, so It's going to take some time to get to that point.
Feeling a little tired after the weekend. A lot of things happened, ultimately with good results.
Five Favorite things today:
1. Tom Doggett, my favorite husband
2. a good apology
3. getting in touch with old friends
4. jumping back into the saddle
5. staying on coarse.
Happy Birthday Kathy, things only get better from here!
