Just an Average SKIRT

I’m starting to feel pretty dang strong. My volume is so big right now and I’m handling everything that is getting dished out quite well I have to say.

Raced the Barking Dog Du yesterday and had a solid race (remember, it’s all relative). I negative split my 5k’s and averaged over 18 miles an hour….18.1 and I’m taking the .1 people. I felt smooth on the bike, I was checking out my shadow and it was looking hot to trot. I passed the most people I’ve ever passed in my life…always a good feeling. 2 years ago, I was not doing the passing…I was the passee.

Finished the race in 1:56:03. 1st 5K: 27.45 - 30k bike: 59:36 - 2nd 5K: 25:51

Today I had a 23.5 mile run, I just knew it was going to be another great workout. I felt so strong, my heart rate was cooperating and so was the weather. BJ rode next to me the entire time and I can’t tell him enough how grateful I am for his support. He’s just such a good guy, anyone who knows him, knows this. He would do anything for me without hesitation. Love him! Love you babe! Thanks again for being such a freaking cool husband.

Rocked out the 2007 marathon dress - feels like you’re running in nothing. Again, always a good thing.

Ran into the Howie’s and St. George’s at the Title9k - huge uplift and motivator to kick my run’s butt! Thanks guys.

Another huge week ahead, biggest bike volume to date and my ‘key’ run - 11,000 yds swimming, 171 miles cycling and 33 miles running - yeah boy!
