Ok, so I really slacked on the updates but the 2011 St. Paul Triathlon was run last Sunday and yes not only did I participate, I also finished in 2hr 10 min and 56 seconds (official time ( Read more... )

Dear body, thank you for not crapping out on me today. It's been a few weeks since I've been able to push you the full 2 and a half hours ( Read more... )

Ok, so i took off a week to let my body heal up a bit, and went hard again on Sunday. I decided to time myself on the 15k of bike.

Bike = 15k-41 minutes
Track = 2 miles 40 minutes.

Ok so I have done my training the last two weeks ( Read more... )

So today instead of the treadmill I walked around the track.

Bike=30 minutes, 7 miles (I had to switch bikes half way through as there was a string that gummed up the wheel of the first one I was riding.

Walk= 23 lap ( i forgot to ask how many laps equaled a mile)

Swim= 20 laps 25 minutes.

So due to holiday crap and the banjo flu today was the first day I've done the full work out.  Last week I did 30 minutes on the bike and 30 on the treadmill, but the pool was too full to swim laps.

Today's work out

30 min bike= 8 miles
30 min treadmill= 1.75 miles
20 laps swimming.

I ended up going on Sunday this last weekend

bike: 25 minutes 6.3 miles
treadmill: 25 minutes 1.5 miles
swim: 20 laps 20 minutes! (yeah, I'm pretty proud of that one)

Thank god for the in apartment work out room.

Got a half hour on the bike and a half hour on the elliptical today.  I could have swam, but the pool it not a lap pool.

Ok, here's today's stats

25 minute bike-6.5 miles
25 minute treadmill-1.5 miles
20 laps of swimming in 25 minutes

I found today that I'm much faster swimming with a breast stroke (giggle) than the crawl. Rock.

I forgot to post last week.  Due to the ice I went down to our apartment's gym.  I did 25 minutes on the bike and 25 minutes on the elliptical.

Sunday this week I did extended bike and treadmill

30 minutes on bike-10.75 mile
30 minutes on treadmill-1.75 miles

Also, Margaret and I will be doing the St. Paul Triathlon in August.
