Soooo…..long break from the blog with the craziness of life.
The good thing about the craziness of my life? It keeps my life fun : ) Will be done with school for the summer come
June 8th!! First semester of the PTA is in the books and enjoyed
every minute of it.
Was finally
able to get out and do some racing on Thursday. (Yes knee is back to good) I REALLY enjoyed being able to see some of
the racing community again, like always!! It is hard to do lots of training
with little racing so I signed up for the Aquathon Series in Madison that I
usually do. If you have never done one
you should really think about it, it’s a great mid week workout/race of
fun. 1000m open water swim and 5k run.

Due to high
winds and ROUGH water the race turned into about a 100meter run/dolphin
dive/swim/walk/flail and a 5k run. Was
sad that the swim was changed from the normal 1000 because I was pumped to get
a good and hard open water swim in. But
it would have been suicidal with the conditions, thanks Race Day Events for
changing it up and keeping everyone safe.
Turns out, I
suck at run/dolphin dive/swim/walk/flail and came out of the water a lot
farther behind then I should have. Took of running hard on my tired legs to try and catch my buddy Mark who was winning.
These races are always SO hard due to the high pace that you need to use right
out of the gate “not used to that doing half Ironmans.” Ended up catching Mark in his BEAST MODE
speedo and tri top at the last hill with little time to spare and finished up the race with a win.
Spent the
rest of the night hanging out and talking with friends, which was probably the
best part of the night haha. Thanks for reading y-all!! Let the fun 2012 season
of racing begin!!
