June!

June definitely went well, but not as well as I had planned. Things got really hectic with the end of the year at South, but I am off now and that means NO EXCUSES!

The month in review:
-Workout 25/30 days
-13 run
-9 bike
-1 swim
-1 row
-1 zumba
-1 chiseled
-Lift/Abs 23 days.
-Bricks weekly

I have 3.5 weeks to go and am finally getting nervous. New England has made it extremely difficult to swim with the daily sporadic thunderstorms, and hence, once again, my swimming is lacking. I REALLY need to work on it this month - I honestly don't want to drop out after my first event.

So swim I shall. I think.

Brick by brick

Most training blogs I have read suggest doing a weekly brick the two months before the big day. I kind of babied out last week, but went for it today, and damn did it go!

I actually did the brick backwards because Parker really needed to get out for a run, but nonetheless everything went well. I was able to do a 2.0 mile run (slightly under the 2.9 needed for the race) followed by a full 12-mile bike ride (complete with the evil hill) in 1:11!!

My success here has done more for my confidence than anything else in the last two months have, and honestly, if I keep working hard, I may just place somewhere respectable after all!
