Well, we're about to finish my third week of training for Lavaman. I can feel my body getting stronger (cardiovascularly). I had a rough run on Tuesday, but I think that was because I had to go to the bathroom SOOOOO bad (at least I hope that was the problem). My swims on Thursday and Friday were also kind of rough. It's funny. Last Friday, my swim was so amazing, and then it was like starting all over again for some reason. I guess I hadn't grasped the newness of the stroke, breathing as well as I had. I'll get it though. I know I will. I just need to keep on it.
On Friday, I went for a loooong swim. I think I was in the pool about an hour and a half. I wasn't tried, but I was struggling with technique.
Tomorrow - I will be riding my bike up by my mom's house in Bakersfield. I'm hoping to ride for a couple of hours -- try to get in at least 40 miles, if not more.
You may be wondering why I'm trying to go so far, considering Lavaman is only a 25 mile bike ride. Well, here's the thing... and I've probably lost my mind, but it's done now. I registered this morning for the Ironman in Nice, France. Yep, it's official -- I have my registration number and everything. So now, I'm training for both Lavaman and Ironman, although I suppose by April, Lavaman will be like a short workout for me. Haha. I've got a GREAT team of people going to France with me. It's going to be a wild 8 months!
