St. Anthony's

Lazyish morning - had breakfast with Michelle and then drove down to venue - about 15 minutes away. Have not yet figured out parking for the race but will either go look later or tomorrow.

Met up with David and his wife and we biked, then I did a brick run. We registered, got our race packets - no lines! and then went down to swim finish to do our swim seeing what the sighting for the finish will be like.

My place in transition puts me a LONG way from bike out, so it will be a long run in cleats....I need to learn to do a flying mount!

Long time no blog

So I was asked at a talk I gave in Arizona if I blog....and technically the answer is yes though I admitted to being remiss recently....have been twittering, but not blogging....

I am attempting to correct that as I head into my second season as a triathlete....this year doing Olympic distance and Half Iron distance. And NO I do NOT aspire to do an ironman. I do not like running and the idea of running a marathon is appalling to me - especially after swimming and biking!

Recovery supplements working well: lycored (lycomato) 250 mg, Injuv (hyalrunoic acid) 140-280 mg, bioastin (astaxanthin) 4mg, meganatural BP (grape seed extract) 300 mg, suntheanine (l-theanine) 200 mg. playing with Perfusia (l-arginine) 700-1050 mg 1-2x daily to see if I think my aerobic capacity improves....I need to be more consistent - then again I should get better about iron supplements too....

first race is this weekend - St. Anthony's.....doing it as an early season training race to see where I am at....
