Gettin Close

Roughly four weeks to go and I kinda sorta think I'm close to ready. Did a 70 mile bike yesterday and a 16 mile run today. While the distance wasn't really close to ironman distance, I'm making an estimation of my fitness baesed on how I feel now. Not tired and not sore. I'm guessing I've got about two weeks of hard training left then it's time for the taper. If everything cooperates, I'd like to get in one more century and one 20 miler before starting to wind down.

San Diego Century

Wow! Long time, no post. No real reason. Workouts are going ok, just missed a few days posting and "got out of the habit".

Just a month and a half or so until IMCDA and I feel ok about my training. I'm convinced that I'll never feel like I'm doing enough but I think I'm in better shape than I was before Arizona. Did the San Diego Century today (second century in three weeks) and felt respectable at the end of the ride. While that is encouraging, I didn't swim 2.4 before the ride and I didn't really feel like running a marathon aftwards...so there you have it. Not doing enough.

I hope to get in a decent run in the morning and a long swim on Wednesday.
