TRAINING......
Well finished up another weekend at work. Yesterday was rough I haven't been that tired in a long time. Today I will be packing me and Natasha for our trip to Massachusetts. We have to leave here at 4:00am tomorrow. Other then that I am just trying to get some training in for the triathlon. I was reading some different schedules and it just made me see how far behind I am. At this point I wont be able to catch up with it all. The race is September 9th that gives me just 4 weeks to be ready. I am going to do what I can. I can't make up for lost weeks so I am just going to focus on training the best I can before race day. Training last week was only a few days but the workouts where good, I had two 60 min. spin classes and after one I got a chance to run a mile and see how that feels. After riding the bike my legs where tight. I did make it to the lap pool for a 400 meter swim. Plus two runs a 4.5 miler and a 10 miler. I had to wait for the heat to brake last week to run. The 10 mile run was Thursday at 5:00am. This way the sun wasn't up when I left. The run took 1 hour 33 min. and was my first 10 mile run since the 1/2 marathon in October. So, I am at the start of a new week and Sunday I swam 600 meters in the pool before work. Today I scheduled myself a short run. I am back to logging my training and planning my schedule weeks in advance. I think this will help me feel ready. I can't wait to get to MA to get the bike. My father in-law got Danny's old bike a tune up. It came to $72 dollars and he says it rides fine with new tiers and washed gears. I also got a new pair of cycle shoes thanks to my friend at work. She is doing awesome I got her into running last April and last week she ran a 16 miler in preparation for the Detroit marathon. So that is about it for now just packing and training. My mom does finally have a computer so I should be able to check in. I run the Falmouth Road Race Sunday the 13th. That is all for now have run Natasha just woke up.

You're going to be amazing at the Tri-athlon, and you deserve this opportunity.
You are very, very talented.
