I have been told, by a very good friend of mine, that I don't "blog" often enough - apparently some people actually read what I post on my blog. So, I'll try to be better at updating my blog starting with this one.
April 21st and my friend and I ran the Spring Trio. I did the 10K and my friend did the 15K. I was trying for under 1 hour but ran it in 1:04:56 - came third in my age group (there were 7 in my age group) and 48th out of 66 people who ran the 10K. I think my average pace was about a 6:38 which is much faster than I am use to, not sure if I'd be able to keep that pace up in my first 1/2 IM but I am going to try (this would then reduce my 1/2 marathon time in a 1/2 IM from 2:50 too about 2:15-2:20 which would be great!).
In the next month I am hoping to get my new tri bike - it has been at TCR for the past 3 weeks waiting for its components, needless to say I am getting very anxious. I know I can't ride it outside and it's hard to explain but once I get it and its actually in my possession I know that my training for IM has begun and there will be no turning back.
As for my current training it is going well, I am training and there is not much else to say about it right now. Just waiting for the warm weather to appear so that we can start riding out bikes outside (I am so tired of riding my bike indoors - as I am sure many others are).
