About Me

After four years of long-distance running (5k, 10k, half-marathons) I got a little burnt out and decided to try my hand at triathlons. This blog is a journey into my training regime, as well as the play-by-play experiences I have had while competing in these amazingly fun events!

Day 34

Had a great 17.1 mile bike ride this morning - trying to add two miles every time I go out and work my way up to 50. Thinking about doing a minimum of 15 during the week, and the long rides on the weekends.

Going to try a short run sometime tomorrow to try out the shins. They've been feeling better while walking, but still a little sore to the touch. Still taking the anti-inflamatory and doing the stretches/exercises, but actually running is what will determine where I really am in the healing process.

The Ironman competition is being held here in Louisville tomorrow, and I'm thinking about getting up early to go watch the start and at least the first transition from the swim to the bike. After that, it'll probably be at least 3-4 hours before the athletes are back in town to transition for the run. Kinda excited about seeing this since my tri (albeit MUCH smaller than an Ironman) is in two short weeks!
