So Little Time

I have 25 days left until Ironman.  That isn't much.  I figure 10 of those days are low-volume training days as I taper down to race day, so really I have 2 weeks left to train.  That is crazy.  Scary.  Scared.  Petrified.  Mortified.

Last Thursday we drove to Coeur d'Alene to ride and run the course.  The bike course is hard.  There is no flat spot on the course.  You are either going up or down.  No flat.  If you were just riding the course without the following run you might think it was a good long bike ride.  Hard, but you can knock it out.  You would be tired at the end.  Add in the run, its a beast.

As luck would have  it, my daughter was in Coeur d'Alene when I was.  It was just good luck that it worked out, so I went to lunch with my riding buddies, my daughter and her boyfriend Chase.  Is that term PC?  Anyway, it was fun, although I think the conversation may have been tough for some to assimilate.

  1. I'll tell you what's not PC... that conversation! Haha. Loved seeing you guys in all your sweaty glory.

  2. Unfortunately, you know what you get with that group. Un-PC is probably the best you can hope for.
