How Hard Can It Be? Lite

[Veronica]

After two years of not racing, I have signed up for a sprint tri. I officially started training on Sunday and have ten weeks to prep. Sunday's bike ride was good. I averaged 15 mph for 30 miles, so a decent starting place there. The advertised race distance is 12 miles and last time I did it, in 2011, I averaged 18.3 mph. Today was my first run outside in about six months and I really have not been running regularly at all for the last two years. It was pretty lame, but I did it. I knew the first few days would be hard with a bike ride on Sunday, trainer session Monday morning (legs), recovery ride on the trainer Monday PM and a run this morning. I deliberately stacked the beginning of each week when I made my plan. I go back to work in three weeks and I KNOW how tired I am by the end of the week. The rest of this week is easier.
