So today is the 14th of April. The weather is starting to get nice in South Jersey. We had some rain yesterday but the clouds have subsided and the sun is out. This past weekend I did a triathlon in South Beach Florida. It did not turn out as I planned. I focused my training on the swimming and did minimal riding and running. I also did something that I never did before and I drank 3 three bottles of coconut water before the race. TIP: This is a RE-HYDRATION beverage, not a HYDRATION beverage! Needless to say I was very sick during the run. I will list all the times of my past performances in another blog. The swim turned out average and I was not too upset with my performance of 35min. The bike was even respectable at a hour ten min. averaging 21.1 mph since it was the first time on the bike, whoops! We had a bad winter and my training was limited, no excuses. The bright side is I have been blessed with a next and pushed to succeed by the past.
Now I am pushing my training to actually start training and getting focused on "the Goal" Today's run felt good and I increase my sprints on the soccer field down the street to 5 and still finished my run within 20 min. I need to get a lift in and keep my legs strong. Hopefully my bicycle gets (being shipped back from FL) back into town today and I can get out on a bicycle ride this weekend.
Email me if you have would like to train! I am currently training a few people that never felt they would ever even do a triathlon but I have pushed them to surprise themselves.
