stroke and stride

07.31.08

Yeah I’m striding, it’s official. I’m back running although busting out a 5K (first run since IM) didn’t feel so great on the ol’injury site. But at this point, it feels muscular and nothing that lots of stretching won’t help. Getting another massage tomorrow morning, thank goodness. I need it not only for the body but for the mind as well.

So proud of my Tiara Ditcher tonight, no stopping on the second loop of the swim and at a faster pace. Great job Kristina - you are going to love Ironman. Take pride in your aquatic accomplishments, they are huge. It’s swimming that makes triathlon hard core my dear and you are out there with the best of em’ fighting through and holding strong. Excellent job tonight!

Also great to see my fellow CDAer’s fighting it out tonight….Craig and Mike.  Great job boys, always a stellar performance.

Training starts back up on Sunday…..excited about the routine although not quite sure where the hell I’m going to fit it into my ridiculously over committed life. We’ll see…will I be able to hang on for the next 6 months while I’m in school or will something have to give? More drama to unfold…
