A day to rest...

Well my sprint triathlon is just around the corner. I feel as ready as I can be. My legs are a little tired after I rode 14 miles and ran 4 this morning and then taught two classes at the gym. I really wanted to do that monday and then take today and tomarrow off but I was at my parents house for memorial weekend and there wasnt any where to ride or run since they live on a dirt road off of the major highway and there isnt a shoulder on the highway. I braught my bike down there (louisiana) but didnt get to ride. This morning I did the bike and run total 1 hr and 32 minutes. The run was really slow for the first two miles, about 11 minute mile pace, and then once my jegs started to feel a little better I picked up speed a little at the end and tried to ignore the cramp in my side. =p fun fun fun. I am going to hit the sack early tonight and tomarrow for sure! Tomarrow I teach yoga and I will take it really easy, then we are going to pick up our packets and drive the bike coarse so we know what to expect. Other than that, I am going to eat carbs and RELAX! Julia Conger had been my awsome training buddy, and I know that she is dead set on beating me this year. She is without a doubt much faster than me at running. Bike is close but she is pretty good, and I have her on the swim. Unluckily for me, the swim is the shortest part of the race. =) I have had a blast training with her and I cant let myslef get too worked up over who beats who, but my main focus is to get good times and hopefully to place in my age group. I did the tri last year in 1:27 on my mountain bike. This is a little longer bike and run and shorter swim so I am not sure how I will do but I hope to be in the 1:20s. The hills have a huge factor though so I am not sure what to expect. Well wish me luck! Hope to see you guys saterday!
