Personal: BSRools, the B stands for Brent and the S for Sylvie. The Rools come from my personal running rools over the years: Never complain once the run starts, allways pick up the pace into the wind and always pick up the pace on a hill. If someone whines, pick up the pace. Once a goal is set, no whining, regardless of setbacks. We were running when running was not Kool. Kool comes from a race story, ran my first race, 5K wearing a "beanie that had "Kool Aid Kid" Favorite Blogs: |

Brick Day - mile swim, 5.2 miles on milly and 20 miles spinning, no breaks between. Nice start to the week, this week will be about a 70 mile week vs. the big last week. I will soon focus on hard workouts as the weather gets warmer in STG, some good hill work running on the the bike, will be my focus.

Early morning swim, 1 mile swim, competition pool at Kearns, my coach Di did not show, we must have had mixed signals. Odd old folks water areobices class, playing african drum music and moving, kinda weird.
Run on JRP to 4500 south and back with Roxie, we met six alaskan huskies coming at us, the owner tried to hold them bac, she went down and the dogs were dragging her on the ice, it was dog chaos for a few moments. |

shac, 40 laps swimming, time trial - 38 laps in 59:49, 56 minutes for a mile. Need to really work on my form not breaking down, gives me a base line to work from. 1 hour spinning at STG rec center, me a lady who wants to ride, will take her up on it. 4 miles run with sylvie, turtle wall, very nice run, unusual for me to run two days in a row, the ankle is getting better, not too sore, a little right calve soreness compensating for the ankle. Cold wind while running, but darn nice to get out, get those running legs back. may sign up for the Spectrum 10k, Sylvie wants to do it.
