Gone Training

I haven't been updating the blog much, I sit down to do it and something else takes over. For instance listening to how crazy and pathetic Mel Gibson is. It fascinates me that someone hasn't beat the living shit out of him yet.

So anyways I have picked things up quite a bit since Buffalo Springs and have found a good balance in my training, family time and work. I have been putting in quality time in all three sports and finally things are starting to click.

The one smart decision I have made is to not race Racine this weekend as I am finally back into my routine and getting some training volume on the legs. Recovering from a half IM next week would not be ideal right now.

Quick summary of last week,

1. 32 miles running with my best run at Water Fall Glen of the year.
2. 2 masters classes and a 2 mile open water swim
3. 6 days of riding including a 60 mile adventure on my cross bike on Saturday. Not sure on the total milage for the week but was by far the most for the year (maybe exclude TOMRV)
4. Some good times at the neighborhood pool with Landon (he is getting closer to putting his head in the water but not quite there yet)
5. Took my first ice bath ever (was kind of enjoyable and Landon thought it was a riot to throw all the ice in from the freezer, he was brave and stuck a foot in to test it out)
