HA! I am almost ready. I had a good ride of 95 miles on Monday. Still need to take in more liquids and Gels or I will be in trouble for the marathon. What am I saying...the marathon is going to be trouble no matter how much I take in. But I will survive. Open Water Swims are going well. Daytime temperatures are coming up so, so will the lake temps. My achilles tendons have been hurting for most of my training, so if they can hack one more week of full training, I will give them a rest in the up coming two weeks. The last two weeks of training are called the Taper. Less time and endurance in each sport. Usually the work outs are shorter with portion of the workout more intense. Hardly any time spent exercising on the last week. I am starting to get excited and nervous. I will take my bike to the shop next week for a pre race tune up. Since getting the bike in January of 2011, I have put more than 8000 miles on it.
I have added up my miles and by the time I am done in 3 weeks I will have swam 96 miles, ran 600 miles, and biked 3,600 miles.
Asta la vista baby
