60mi ride/6mi run Starting at 6am were Lisa Reiss, Lanae, Scott Simpson and I. We were caught by Teresa and Joe by the RR tracks near Port Salerno. I had my Nite Rider helmet light and a few flashers since our first 45-60 minutes were in the dark. Scott pulls well, I followed more than … Continue reading Bricks are tough recovery!

10mi. I really did 12mi, a quick up and down the bridge with Suzanne since we arrived at 5:30am. I ran the store loop with Walter, getting his take on Steve's Vegas wedding and his travels since. It again is dark so long into the run! No speed at all today, I was glad to … Continue reading Ten miles is now recovery
4 mi. No Paul today, most thought he'd be there, including Erica and John. Surprisingly we had very low attendance today. Erica pieced together what she believed would be a good distance-based workout. I stayed in the back for all intervals except for the 600m. I took care not to exert too much of anything … Continue reading Recover and stretch
3mi Today John and I did a loop of the Dyer Park trails - specifically the hill course. I wore my Saucony trail shoes, mid thickness socks, and shorts with no shirt. John had issues with his one hip hurting, but he finished the run up and around the hill. Everything I brought worked well … Continue reading Equipment shakedown
50.6 mi. It's a big difference coming back to the site of a race you're already familiar with. I had no pre-race jitters or anxiety. I was very confident I could give a sustained effort and really be in my own head for 10+ hours. This is what I kept explaining to my four friends … Continue reading ECS Atlanta – Year 2
60mi. I began starting with a smaller than usual group from Loggerhead park. We weren't making much progress, we stayed for an extended period at Bridge Rd talking, someone had tire issues immediately after turning onto Gomez Rd, and Sandsprit Park was a chatfest and generous rest stop, too. The group thinned at each delay, … Continue reading 60 out of nowhere
18mi. I ran early, 5:30am around the duck pond to start this Saturday's long effort. I'm racing next weekend so I don't need too many miles, but anything below fatigue will be great. I return to the store and pickup Adrienne who has already run 6 miles to PGA Blvd and back. We ran slowly, … Continue reading 18 of 20 miles for NYC
4 mi. A quick exit for the drive to school, but today's track sesh was attended by 15-20 people and some of Dave Reback's kids. They run in the middle, on the grass, or against the grain in the outermost lanes. How neat to be exposed to all this fitness starting at a young age! … Continue reading Blinking thru 400s
8 mi run, 27 mi ride In over ten years of Blue Heron Bridge running, I have never been able to tape another workout on the end of the hill run. Even in the summer, it's time to zip home, take care of John, drive to school, whatever. Well today I went with Lanae's suggestion … Continue reading Dualie on a Tuesday
1/4 mi swim, 11 mi bike, 3 mi run A near perfect morning greeted the 400+ athletes that signed up for the Tropical Triathlon this year. Surprisingly, the casino area was still mashed up under construction much like it was last year. Disappointing because they have a beautiful piece of oceanfront land, they haven't developed it near to … Continue reading Lake Worth Triathlon 2012
