- 1 child now a Senior in HS
- 1 child off to CA for Sophomore year in college

Thoughts
- Happy with my bike training, especially given the week long vacation at the start of the month
- Happy with my performance at the sprint tri
- No good excuse for such little time in the pool other than it doesn't interest me that much
- I really need to be more consistent with my running
Plans
- Keep training hills!!
- Try to get in more running/swimming volume
- Another Sprint Tri
Those numbers look good to me. Good luck building up the swimming. It is hard when it doesn't interest us.
ReplyDeleteYour numbers look pretty darn good to me! 12 hill training days?!? You are a beast!
ReplyDeleteI have great respect for all the tri people. I take the easy way out and only run. I love swimming and I'm a strong swimmer actually. I have zero interest in the biking.
ReplyDeleteNice training!
ReplyDeleteDo you do drills in the pool or just straight swimming? Just swimming all the time can get boring (and I LOVE swimming!), but doing some drills helps mix it up. Let me know if you want more info!
Wow, I think your #'s look awesome. 12 hill days??? That would of killed me alone!
ReplyDeleteyou've been super busy, your swim / interest will come back to you during the winter....it looks like another fantastic month in the books!!
ReplyDelete"by feet and by seat" is cute phrasing!
ReplyDeleteNice job on August's numbers!
Wow, just caught up on the last couple of posts - August has been a really fun and challenging month for you!
ReplyDeleteWhat a solid month!! Great mileage all around! I'm inspired!
