triathlon on saturday

Well, my first triathlon is on saturday. i have already learned a few lessons, the first is create a plan. I didn't schedule out my workouts and have definately slacked off the last 2 weeks. I'm confident i will do well, but I could have trained better.

or both. I wish they were not so damn expensive to sigh up for.


Also, I found a local triathlon series that I may do next year:

Well, I'm thinking about doing a triathlon.  I did my first swim tonight.  I lost count, but I think I did 40 laps in about 30 minutes.  It was a good, but tiring workout.

I also did the run for the Zoo 2 weeks ago.  I ran the 10k in 1:02:07.  Not to bad, it gives me a baseline for the future 10k, yet to be determined.

Oops...

I missed a couple of runs.  March 10th I did 2.6 miles in 32 minutes and March 14th I did 2.1 miles in 24 minutes

I also ran today.  It was an evening run while Sara watched the kids.  I did an extra long warm up because I was trying to get Pandora (which stopped playing after 2 songs) on my Nexus One.  I ran 2.6 miles in roughly 32 minutes.  Cardiotrainer stopped recording on my run, and I don't have my Garmin 301 available.  I'll get better times soon.  It was sunny and warm, low 50's when I went running.  Run went pretty well, I worked on my speed a little.  I need to sign up for a run tomorrow.

Laters,

Jason

Forgotten Run

Forgot to post my run on Wednesday.  I ran 3.28 miles in 38:31.  That puts my average pace at 11:56/mile.   Not to good.  I had some pain in my right knee around 2 miles and had to walk/run for the last mile or so.  Going skiing tomorrow so I won't get a run in this weekend.  I will have to get out on Monday!

GI Distress

Well, I went for a 1.87 mile run.walk.  Some GI Distress at .88 miles limited how much running I could do after that.  I also tried my new Brooks Adrenaline GTS 9's.  They felt much better than my old and worn out GTS 8's

The run was in the afternoon so it was a warm 50 degrees with slight could cover.  My asthma was also bothering me a little bit, but I forgot to take my inhaler before the run.  Hopefully I can get a run in tomorrow.
