Well, I went out yesterday and did a half ironman, without the swimming. Claire and I did the Vineman loop on our tandem, and then I went and ran for two hours. I felt great until the last half hour, but even then it wasn’t too bad. I really feel like training is going well. I probably need to do some more work in the aero position, but otherwise… I did hop in our pool on Monday and swim for half an hour with the bungee cords tied to my feet. I know its not the same as a good open water swim, but my shoulders were a tiny bit sore the next day, which is a good sign. The bike shop is starting to swing into high gear, so I need to make sure I find the time to train. I am also quite happy with my weight loss, only half a stone to go.
