I think my last post was about being down, but now out. Well I got my head back straight now with some good miles on the bike. Yesterday I did Metcalf Mauler after running 8 miles in the morning. Today I got in some real good miles, the weather was very nice once the afternoon hit. Tomorrow I am probably going to bike again because the weather is suppose to be even better, but I do need to run another 10 miles, somehow. Maybe on Friday I will take a day off the bike and do a speed workout running. I am sure by the end of this month I should be able to write about the Most Miles in March in My Mindless Memory so check back on April 1st for a Aprils fools joke.

I am finding out that training for both a major running and cycling event at the same time is difficult. My training is essentially what I would be doing for an Iron Man triathlon, except I am not swimming. But I am training for both the biking distance (112 mi) and running distance (26.2 mi) of an Iron Man and I think I could do both back to back next month if I cut back on the pace. Hum … maybe I could do a Iron Man, if only I could swim. Visit my other website at www.swim2bike2run.net. 58.994382 and counting (so I feel like I am racing against the clock, the clock of father time).
