Week 3

Hellooooo

Two great days of weather, finally together, made for some good workouts.   Water temps still hovering between 50-53 degrees.   Not too much of a burrrrrden after 15mins into the workout.   Saturday I swam 1 mile and rode 30 miles on the back bike course.   Lots of gravel on the roads this week.  I hope they can get this cleaned off before the race.   On Sunday I swam 2.5 miles continuous.   I felt a little dizzy coming out of the water, probably the cold water affecting my equilibrium.   As the big day approaches, I am pretty worried that I am not ready.  While my training program does not call for it, I am going to do one more 100 mile ride.   I hope to swim in lake Couer d alene tomorrow(1 mile along shore) and then ride the bike course(80-100 miles).   Weather calls for Thunderstorms in the afternoon, so I will have to play by ear.   After this work out my longest run is 2 hours and my longest bike ride is 3 hours.  While this week is still 13-15 hours of exercise, my workout taper is about to start.   

I am starting to get emails and other information from the race directors.....kind of scary......RACE DAY is closing in!

cheers
