Triathlon Training Update, 5/31/11

As some of you may be aware, in order to challenge myself, I decided on 4/29 as I went through security at my local airport in Jacksonville, FL, to persuade a friend to do a sprint triathlon with me on 7/9/11.

I have been doing pretty well with my training, working out almost every day, and doing the "brick" workouts, which are cycling followed by running.

I biked to the gym yesterday (about 2 miles each way) and ran/walked at the gym for about 30 minutes.

Today is a pool day, and that has been the toughest part, as I don't have my own pool and I'm being frugal, so I'm "discreetly" swimming at friend's community pools during the day - hopefully, the Fletcher school pool will be open next week, and I will also start ocean swimming one day a week as part of the training.

With 5 weeks left to go, I've already made some great progress, have seen some terrific results, and am SO looking forward to the event!

I went to college on a swimming scholarship and ran track in high school.  I love triathalons.  It demands your body be in shape in a number of ways and to also be able to transition from one sport to another. Good for you Carol.  I am pulling for you.
