3mi run/50mi bike. Erica, cleared to run more than the 10 minutes last weekend gave her, wanted to meet at 6am, run 25 minutes and then ride to Sandsprit Park. I planned on riding from my house and then doing another longer ride Sunday, but why not, I'll try this workout. She wanted to swim … Continue reading Mix up more and I’ll do it.

4 mi. Track with a faster group of guys than usual. Only one gal came to run, Randi. I ran the warmup with Seth Kaufman, discussing his entry to sprint triathlons and summer race dates we both had planned. We both agreed - the warmup jog mile doesn't really seem to warm you up for … Continue reading I dare you to think it…
7.5mi. It's changing seasons to summer and longer days. Which means when I finish running, I get the beginnings of a sunrise and once I'm home, I see good views across the lake in my neighborhood. I ran the whole time with Joe, who arrived when I did and stayed with me to talk even … Continue reading Light the way
2000 yards. Those comfy padded goggles found a way to dig right into my nose today. The first two laps had one eye leaking, and the plastic on that side for the first time was poking into my nose. Not terrible, it beats some big guy's foot crashing into my face, so i'll write it … Continue reading Digging
2000 yards. The routine of swimming and the counting of my laps is ok. Whe I get in the pool, it's cold at first but I don't feel that once I start seeing how far along the known markers on the wall my strokes take me. I know it's necessary to condition myself to swim … Continue reading Tiring, but that’s the point
59 mi ride/5 mi run These brick workouts on beautiful days are great. I know step #1 is the Motivation Man Triathlon in 3 weeks, so I have to be used to the "cycle, hop off, run fast in the heat" reality. I started with Suzanne and Sal just after 5:15am, we rode with headlights … Continue reading Early test for half the marbles
46mi ride/1 mi run. I know I need to be pedalling more than running in prep for this summer's two distance triathlons. So I left the house at 6am, lights on and heading north. I knew a ride to Hobe Sound would have me doing more than 40 miles, then I'd jog around the neighborhood … Continue reading Skip the run
4 mi. With a surprisingly cool morning, we still pull only 12 guys and Randy Garvey for the track workout. Something must have been happening in the daytime at Benjamin High School, because the sidelines had all the hurdles out and three white party tents were setup along the field. Paul ran the intervals, so … Continue reading Nested 1000s
7 mi. Talk about following habit - I ran the hills a day earlier this week and I throught the next day was Wednesday, I dated items wrong at work - messy! I asked John if he wanted to run the hill workout after work and before dinner - so we did. At 6pm, it's … Continue reading Off-beat bridge running
2000 yards. There is no clamor for lanes at LA Fitness on a Monday. By the time I'm 75% done, a few guys show up to swim, but they end up taking the lanes next to me. One guy swims with fins and a snorkel. Yes he goes faster than I do. I think mostly … Continue reading Monday doesn’t excite as many swimmers
