THE LAST WEEK BEFORE THE END!!!!!

Well here we are in the last week of training, where we really are not training, but we are just cruising to the finish. I did a little more that I may have wanted, I was a little over tired on Sat. but Sunday is here and I'm feeling a lot better. I just want to get to bed early and be real rested this week. I did bike to work on the only good day of the week, I went about 30 miles each way, I had a great ride. I also ran the Earth Day 10K with Ryan, he came in 1st and I was 9th overall. (only about 85 people raced). My pace was 7:14 for the 6.4 miles. Here are my total for the real last week of training.
Running 14 miles 1:50 hr
Swimming 6000 yards 2:00 hr
Biking 86 miles 4:30 hr
TOTALS 100 miles and 8:20 hrs

Still Training

I am actually still training, but you guys know that. Jeff wussed out today and didn't go on a ride with me. I manned up and climbed to the top of Suncrest...that is quite the climb. It's like 8-10% grade the whole way. On my way down I felt like I was going to crash several times and wasn't even going 40 MPH. Some dude blew by me and I swear he was going at least 50. I think I am going to have to replace my brakes because I was riding them so hard. The crosswinds and swirling winds didn't help. Anyway, it was a nice ride. Great day. I did a total of 30 miles in about 1:40. All alone. I have a nasty sinus infection and my legs have felt sore, especially my hammys all week. I hope I get better soon.

Totals for the week

Swim: 4000 Yards Swimming
Bike: 3 hrs 10 Min 52 Miles on the Roads 1 day on the spin bike.

Ironman in 1 week.

I went to Denver to run but as you can see I ran into cute little Troy
Okay the Ironman isn't in a week, I just completed all of the event distance in one weeks time frame. No one says the week needs to start on a Sat or Sun. Cause I'm starting on Friday and ending on Thursday, still only 7 days. I had the chance to come to Denver and see little Troy and his family. Kris and my paths passed in the air as she came home and I flew to Denver. I got my last long run 15miles in Denver going up and down the hills to the river. It was a fun little trip, still a little cold 40's, I'm sure we will need to prepare for the heat in St George in 2 weeks from today.
Total
Swim 1:10 min just two times at the pool.
Bike 2:00 just 2 times but once on the road for 18miles
Run 4:10 29 miles, 3 runs with a long of 15 in Denver
Total 7:20 hrs
Here is the link to the Denver run Jeff http://connect.garmin.com/activity/30302010

St George Weekend is awesome 3 wks away

Well its been a few days since we were in St George, but that was an awesome trip. It was tons of fun to swim in the open water and get the feel of the wet suit, to find out where things might chafe and were we need to put PAM. The bike route was a big eye opener with all the hills and more hills. I need to make sure I just pace myself and don't try and make up time or go to fast, I just need to go steady and even. It was fun to have Nancy there, she is a good gal and quite the trooper, putting up with us boys. She will go great at the Ironman herself.
Totals this week include
Bike 4:35 hours, 61 miles on the Ironman course
Swim 1:50 hours, about 1:15 in Sandhollow
Run 26 miles, taking about 4:00 hrs
Total 10:25 hrs

Washington DC is warm in the Spring

Well here I am in DC, very nice weather, 60's and 70's. I ran the first couple of mornings here, drove to the capitol the 2nd day so I could run further around the monuments. Then on Friday I rented a bike and rode all over the Mall and down to Mt Vernon. It was really nice, I loved the whole day. I rode about 60 miles and around 5 hours give of take. I had auto stop on but you never know when it is working for sure.

Bike 7:15 and 60 miles
Run 23 miles
Swim 3000 yrs
Total 11:15

Race Week minus 5 weeks

We will are almost there, sort of. This week was alittle slower with the Riverton 1/2 Marathon. My goal was to do as well as last year. 1:41. Michelle M. came up with the idea of a progressive run where we started in the 8:30 pace for a couple and increasing the speed every couple of miles. So that we ended under 7:00 min for the last couple of miles. Well almost stayed with the 8:30, we actually were at the 8:00 min then we reduced from there. I had a lot of middle miles in the 7:20's and the final 2 were 7:18 and 6:42. So I this I did pretty good with 1:38:50 Finish.
Ryan and Jeff did well for themselves and weren't official but there times were 1:19:35 and 1:21:05 they would have ended up 4 and 5th overall. Chris finished 9th overall in 1:28:21.
Just so you know Sean was 1:26 last year.
My times this week were pretty good.
Swimming 8500 yards
Running 28 miles
Biking 3 hours on spin
Total Hrs 9:30

This is a picture of the the BBKs Sat. morning 3/13/10 before our 14 miler

Wow almost 1/2 way, not to bad I think I'm doing okay, getting in pretty good miles and plenty of variety. Weather was mostly good this week, everyone wanted to ride on Sat. but the storm was coming, so I was home on Friday and took the time and to go ride, so I was the lucky one, and got a ride in. Sat. was ugly after the morning run, so I was lucky.
Biking 3:05hr including a 1:25hr 24 mile ride
Running 29 miles
Swimming 7500 yeard
Total hours 11:30

Well another week, it was a good week last week, I did a little Indoor Tri on Sat. was fun and all a little rinky, I think I was around 4-5 place overall, after the Tri I went running and it felt good, I found some old friends Kayla and Kerry, we ran fast around a 7:46 pace for 7 miles, it felt great.

Let the mileage and hours begin.

Well boys the training has begun, we will need to post more often, and I think will we very aware of what we are doing and any particular day. I'm sure Jeff will come up with a pretty little spread sheet of our miles, but for now I'm at least going to post my pretty little Garmin calendar.

A New Year a new commitment

Howdy boys
Well at least we know that everyone is run and biking and swimming. Now its almost time to step it up to the next level. Feb 1st is less than a month and that will be 13 weeks out.
