This was a great training week. We were pelted with just a bit of weather, but then conditions broke way to provide some awesome training weather. I won't bore you with the details, but I just used this week to show myself that I am ready! I pushed hard a few times, a relaxed a few others, and all in all, I just felt fit.
I finished up my 15th week of triathlon training, pulled the buckle on my belt loop one smaller, and have now begun mentally preparing myself for next weekend... my first Tri! I'll spend most of the week tapering and doing some transition training. I'm hoping my elite athlete of a brother will guide me through the cumbersome process of going from wetsuit, to bike, to run, so that by Sunday, I'm a transition queen. Other than greasing the bike, laying out my clothes, and getting some rest, I'm ready. I'm trained, and actually confident that this should be a fun experience!
Only bummer was that I missed our re-scheduled practice triathlon. I was out of town this weekend visiting the fam for Mother's Day, but the below pic is what I could have been doing... should I be worried that my teammates now have the edge on me?????
