Almost There
Less than two weeks until my sprint triathlon, and less than a month until the international distance event. I’m regularly swimming the distances I need, I’m cycling almost double my long distance once a week. As for running, I’m not quite there yet.
I came closest this morning. I just got back from a 5.9 mile run, which I completed in 1:31. Fifteen minute miles are not where I want to be, but I need to get comfortable with these distances before I start working my speed up. I would be super pissed if I turned an ankle just before the race. My next run I’ll tack on that last bit and get up to the 6.6 miles I need for Miami.
My wife and I went to a 45 minutes spinning class yesterday. I think that’s helpful. There really aren’t any hills in South Florida, so it’s nice to spend some time pedaling with more resistance. I think I’ll get a swim in this evening, then I need to put in a long bike ride tomorrow.
