It is fantastic. I live in Salt Lake City, and just got into triathlon last year. Keep up the hard training. I will be at the finish line at IMSG, I have quite a few friends participating, so I volunteered so I can be there to see them crossing the line. I will look for you there as well. Someday I will be crossing my own Ironman finish line. <br /> <br />Goodluck!trikariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10623790794561930260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11239428.post-74658777848169362312010-03-03T15:35:01.281-08:002010-03-03T15:35:01.281-08:005 weeks? I'm confused.
You've got a week ...5 weeks? I'm confused.<br /><br />You've got a week of recovery then 5 weeks of training plus a (4?) week taper.<br /><br />I think I am missing a week or two there.Formulaichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02270473203747687169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11239428.post-51423148229702382662010-03-03T15:11:36.629-08:002010-03-03T15:11:36.629-08:00It's hard to make yourself relax, especially w...It's hard to make yourself relax, especially when you are on a routine. I have only experienced recovery weeks for marathon training, but I often felt like I was getting sick during the recovery period. Books are a great way to relax and escape...enjoy!Alihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01600405085666152727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11239428.post-70194483543609266892010-03-03T10:50:27.340-08:002010-03-03T10:50:27.340-08:00I love the off training times but I find I miss th...I love the off training times but I find I miss the comfort of a plan too.

Hell, having the olympics was like TV training for me :) I am sitting here blogging tonight wondering what I am going to do with all this extra time since there will not be three hours of coverage tonight.<br /><br />When you talk about nervousness, is that that the race is coming up in general, or the question of how you will do when the race comes? <br /><br />Quote from my friend...

I look for that same sense of freedom on a bike now - especially at speed - as injuries and too heavy a musculature prevent me from running now. I do love those dreams though - and save me some chocolate!Grey Beardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02238917041257429804noreply@blogger.com
