My Training

Things are going ok in my training these days - I am still having a hard time getting back into a good routine but I am getting there. Cycling has been going pretty well - it feels weird getting back on the bike after such a long break. I changed the set up on my bike again last night to get back to a more compact aggressive position to try and be more comfortable. I was getting terrible neck and shoulder pain in my last set up. I will gladly change a little power for more comfort. I will continue to dial in my set up over the next couple of months.

I did a 35 mile bike and 4 mile run brick this weekend that went well. The bike is not too fast yet but staying efficient. However, I am running pretty well off the bike - I ran the first two miles in a medium paced 7:00 mile then backed it down to7:45 for the last 2 miles. I am definitely looking forward to getting in some longer days.

I also had a good 7 mile run this weekend - about a 7:45 pace or so - maybe a little faster - no watch so it is all a guess.

I think my race schedule will be:

Moss Park in July - olympic du
Moss Park in Aug - olym du

Two tune ups ought to be ok for Powerman - we will see- stay tuned.

Happy Training
