For the time being, I'm using this blog rather selfishly as it's the easiest way for me to remember what my training plan is on any random day when I'm not at home. I'll be posting my weekly plans so I can reference them & know how long I need to torture myself on any given run, bike or swim. Cheers! Mick

2-Mile Ocean Swim with Cat
Cat & I kicked off our Big Day yesterday @ La Jolla Shores with a swim to The Cove & back. Jennie also made the crossing over with us. Congrats!
Cat & I came home, rested for 90 minutes and left for our five hour bike ride to & up the coast. The coast was nice, cool & mostly overcast with a thick marine layer. Not so in Poway where we started. It was in the 90's when we left.
90 minute rest when we got back and off on a 2 hour run. The sun set while we were running & it was dark when we got home at 9:00 PM. Great day & good confidence building for July 31st.

Pre-Half Marathon Bike Ride
A little ride, with hills yesterday to prep for running the Rock & Roll Half Marathon today.
It really didn't look like the hills were all that bad when I mapped this out.
This might have been the hardest ride I've ever done, including the two 100 mile centuries.
Hopefully I can still run today.
:-)

Week 11 Training Plan
The weeks are counting down. 11 weeks until Vineman Full. Working into Base 2 period for my training. 12.5 hrs scheduled for this week, but without being able to workout twice a day, can only plan on fitting in 11.5.

How I'm Using my Blog
In case you found yourself on this page & wondering what the heck I'm doing here...
I make my detailed training plan for the week every weekend. I print it out & put it on my desk so I can see what I'm supposed to do each day. But when I'm at work I don't have access to the plan...until now. I just take a screen shot of my plan each week & upload it to my blog & I, as well as anyone else in the world can see it.
I plan my workouts in time rather than distance. I have to do a quick calc to figure out how for to run or bike, just dividing the time by my expected pace. For instance, I'm supposed to have a 2 hr run today. Divided by 9:00 min miles that works out to over 13 miles.
See ya'!
