Short recap

It has been awhile since I have blogged. Here is a short update of races.

Kaiser 1/2 marathon: slow, hard, nice weather, beautiful route.
Mermaid 10k: 1 week after Kaiser half. Legs are still feeling like I am running through mud.

I haven't had a good quality run since the Campbell Oktoberfest 5k last October. I am doing more tempo work, so hopefully that will get me to my ideal race pace.

I have found my 1/2 iron training plan. Next step is following the training plan. I also am trying to tweak the plan by combining it with my Seattle to Portland bike ride. My crazy friend who was the one who convinced me to do Alcatraz two years ago said we should try training for doing the ride in one day. 200 miles. One day. I said, "Ok." When will I learn.

As an added incentive, I told myself the first time I ride 100 miles, I will treat myself to a new Coach bag.

Will write more next week...
