While I'm writing a race report for the Pacific Crest Olympic Triathlon, take a peek at the Weight Training Routine for Olympic and Sprint Triathlon e-book at www.smashwords.com/books/view/26079.
Use Coupon Code WH58N to get it for $1.99 instead of $2.99 until July 27, 2011.
Quick summary of the race:
1. The extra bike miles went better than expected but hurt my run more than expected.
2. The heat got me on the last two miles (see also #1!).
3. The swim went really well.
4. Finished 41 of 504 total.
5. Finished 9th in 40-44 Males Age Group with a 2:40:40. That time would have got me 3d in th 35-39 age group....getting old sucks! I just turned 40 last month.
6. Family trip went well and maintained the priority it needed. Tera even did the 5k, and her mom/aunts/sisters did half-marathon, 10k, and 5k races. Kids had lots of fun.
7. Coming back was tough with the little guys tired of being in the car.
Full report in a couple of days.
I'm a family guy who is addicted to swim/bike/run and anything to do with getting out into the backcountry wilderness areas. This blog focuses on the swim, bike, run and other various aspects of my attempts to finish in the top ten percent of my age group in whatever race I do. It used to be all about finishing the legs of an Olympic Distance triathlon: swim in 20 minutes, bike in 60 minutes, and run in 40 minutes. Now, it's more about training well and finishing well.

Sorry, I’m still tripping from the fact that you did a long a** run on a weekday.
Along the same lines, weight training for women has been discovered to be very beneficial to all populations of women.
Hello ladies (I assume). Thanks for the comments. Hope all is good. FYI: I am definitely going to lift weights again this winter. I just feel like I got flabby and weak without lifting weights. Plus, a little muscle mass can help burn the calories from the wine I've started drinking.
I like your Coupon and i have use to Medifast Coupons.I found it quiet interesting, hopefully you will keep posting such blogs.
