OH! I've been running... biking... swimming!

I have just been too tired to post! As it gets closer to my Half Ironman... my training time each week is going UP. I'm still 7 weeks out from my taper... and each week I:

Swim around 7,000 meters (well, I haven't done a good job of reaching this goal).

Bike around 120 miles.

Run around 20 miles.

Totaling around 13 hours a week.


SO... this past weekend I ran 12 miles... my longest run to date! It was a bit slow around a 12:30 minute mile, but with the HEAT and HUMIDITY I was doing a 5:00 run/1:00 walk combo, for the most part. It took me a good 2 hours and 30 minutes!

I just hope I can hang on and keep up this volume for the next 7 weeks. I can't believe my training distances only go up from here!
