8 mi. I can't remember having the bathrooms locked before and after a Blue Heron Bridge run. The water fountain worked, but that's all. I ran with Charlotte and Chiara, who crept up the hills on the sidewalk then zipped past us on each downhill portion. Low attendance from others in the area. Teresa and … Continue reading No relief

40 mi. I know a later start exposes me to more heat, but I guess I needed a reminder! I attended a product testing event at Lululemon and ran 2-3 miles. That had me arrive later than the advertised 9am for the ride up and back with a smaller than usual group. I rode to … Continue reading 40@10
16 mi. I started at 5am with Walter, a run to PGA Blvd and back where I brought a 12oz water bottle and left it at FPL for the way back. Once at the store, I saw Chiara and Suzanne ready for their 10 miles. I ran with both of them and Steve Bernstein, discussing … Continue reading LSD – Long silly distance
2000 yards. The pool was full of swimmers, when I got there, like share a lane at LA Fitness? For a few laps, yes... I felt it took a longer than usual time to swim 2000 yards, many reps of 50s today. Warmup Set (400y) 2 x 150 (25 easy, 100 build, 25 hard) @ … Continue reading Solo until I get there
10 miles. It is an unlikely day when I'm doing this many miles after work, but the chance came - so go. Chiara and Walter were planning this, I did not run at the bridge early this morning so it was ripe for me to makeup the time on my feet from a lackluster mileage … Continue reading 10 @ 7
1/4mi/10 mi./3 mi. A good outing on a wet course. My swim was a mess of bumping into people and learning the lesson that being better than most of the people will help me avoid that in the future. This should have been much easier to do in a 1/4 mi straight line! Biking … Continue reading Multirace Tradewinds Tri
mini tri. It was raining at home, dry at the TRS store as I drove by, and pouring on A1A. I found doused Charlotte first, she was turning around and heading back to her car and home. Then Walter, who pressed on to finish 16 in the now cool air. The training tri was supposed … Continue reading Stealthman 2
2000 yards. The schools and day camps are back, so less swim lanes. I feel better with knowing my arm stroke gathers resistance and feels like it's contributing more to speed than just exertion. I swam next to Walter for half of my workout, then the fast local masters swim guy did laps two lanes … Continue reading In the summer mix of it all
