5mi. It might be a little cooler out by only a few degrees. We start and it's dark and humidity is obvious during the warmup laps. After finishing Sunday's Lake Worth Triathlon with a good run, I am confident and in a good mood to train well today. There are a good number of fast … Continue reading Well lit autumn session
This was the most "in control" of all three disciplines I have ever felt in a triathlon.
5mi. After this long, I know who's who at the track. I am usually 4th in the lineup as we do our intervals. Not today. How about tenth! Nine guys show up that all can put 100m into my pace in a mere 800m. Yes, it was warm and sticky out. Yes, I enjoy chasing … Continue reading 9 guys
5mi. The humidity has topped out, it cannot be any thicker today. One slow warmup lap and I am dripping with sweat. Paul guides us through a good set today, anyone who has been running track with him kinda figured out what the intervals would be - the old standard workout we have run so … Continue reading The Old Standard
9mi run, 19mi bike - I made a great move by finding out from Lanae if she and Rick and Lilia were doing the ride I sometimes see them involved with after bridge running. They were, I committed to go. It was so steamy hot and almost breezeless running the bridge. Teresa, the two Jens … Continue reading Two for Tuesday
5mi. Even if it's the middle of summer with crushing humidity, running intervals helps. I feel it working as I'm doing it. I probably should do another interval workout of mile repeats once every two weeks, with 800s in the middle weeks, all for time. I do enjoy yapping with Jen Davis before the runs, … Continue reading This still works
5mi. It was advertised as a 2mph wind. What I saw from the track as I looked towards the parking lot was mist, fog - translation: HUMIDITY! We did a rough workout, after the first four 200m dashes, I joked about it being 24 of them. All good until Steve Monks says he used to … Continue reading Still and Stiller
3/8mi swim/13mi bike/5k run - First time back in the last 3 years! I checked my bike in Friday night as did Jessica, that was a fail. A HUGE storm came within 20 minutes, blew the racks over and subjected my well-cared for bike to "out back behind the shed" type of treatment. I knew … Continue reading Loggerhead Triathlon 2015
5mi. I pulled up with only a few minutes before the running began. Paul is back from his injury, Francie was away this week. Temps were low 80s plus the humidity was all out crushing. Everyone felt it and said it affected their times. Jen Q and Cody told me about their trip to NYC … Continue reading It’s all back in place
30mi. Same situation, off from work and I have time to ride. It's not as sunny as yesterday, and I am starting 2 hours later so I opt out of sticky spray sunscreen. The road is full of commuters and I'm not so lucky at the big intersection traffic lights. I feel really good getting … Continue reading Try it again…
