The transistion to the back of the pack has not been easy, but, acceptance, stay in the game, root for others, enjoy the rest of the journey. Another off the bucket list second = Provo Half IM - have done 6 open water Tris and 6 pool Tris. Gave the STG IM a good Tri, hope to take another shot at the IM.

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: |

| swim 37 laps, a little over a mile, worked on rotating my hips, without Elvis, good effort, lessons coming soon. Rode the spin bike for 1 hr, part BSX365 workout. Bought new swim goggles, goofy tone up shoes an Sylvie's request, scheduled a Tri bike fitting session, did my taxes, owed both the IRS and state, not good. Darn, wanted to run this morning, hopefully get out tomorrow for 10. No races coming up this month, just hit it hard training getting ready for summer Tris and trail runs. Sylvie is making cookies and brownies, watch what I eat, have lost 6 lbs, another 8 to go before mid May - getting stronger, with Stalone. Stay Kool, bofsbroolsout |

| nice brick workout, back to back fairly hard spinning classes, 10 miles on the parkway, to 3300 south and home, soaking wet, but, the run was not too bad. Runs in the weather are always worst looking out the window. Consistent run, did not stop except for a couple of seconds at the turnaround point. To my surprise, seen several runners, three bikers and a few walkers. I am guessing runners just got to run with races coming up. My brick today was the first of many longer bricks getting ready to August half iron, get me tough mentally. I ran in the clown shoes today, good cushioning, but, about a minute a mile slower than my race day Nike Volermo. Happy with the 70 mile week, need to put several of these back to back to back to bump up my fitness. Sylvie wants to run the Pine Valley 15 miler trail run in August again. This would be a good long training run for the half iron, will likely sign up after after consulting with my daughter. Stay Kool, B of BS Rools out |
