33 DAYS REMAINING!



So this is actually Scott Aitchison's broken collar bone. Poor guy! I show this as it could be worse for me. I don't have a broken anything, just a 2nd degree AC shoulder separation. I haven't swam now for about 2 1/2 weeks and I'm getting a bit nervous. I did attempt to swim the breath stroke and side stroke last week, but it looked more like a fish with only fins on one side.... UGLY!!! For some reason I kept going in circles. DOH...

Other than that the workouts have been going pretty well. Last weekend was a bit ridiculous. Saturday consisted of a 108 mile bike ride followed by a 6 mile run and a short open water swim (i think you can call it a swim). I felt great in the bike and run. Sunday was a differnt story... Both days I got up at 4:30AM to start my workouts to beat the heat. However on Sunday my legs were shot. I did do a 20/20 workout. Yep - 20 biking miles and 20 running miles. Fun huh? Not! I broke it up a bit and ran 5 miles, biked 20 miles, and then right back out the door for 15 miles. Luckily Sara and her brother Matt joined me for the 15 miler.

The madness will be over soon! I can't decide if I'm excited for it to finally be here or for it just to be over?!? I do like being able to eat pretty much everything under the sun, guess that will have to change as well.

More this weekend... Thanks for stopping by. LATER!
