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: |

Heat acclimation run - ran 5 miles south along JRP and back home, hot, hot, more running than speed walking, nice effort, attempting to get some endurance back in the legs for running, the rolling over the toes, short stride and quick turnover to keep the impact down, tough to change life time running habits, well, it is going good.
1 Hour spinning, good 20mph effort, rib cage is much better today, should be back at swiming this week.
Nice start to the week. |

Run with milly, 6 miles in 1 hr - 10 min miles - i know, slow, but, progress for me, need to build that running endurance back up, get ready for the george, the new style of running over the toes, fast turnover and low impact, tough to get use to. Happy with the effort, ran the last 10th of a mile a 6:30 pace to just get under 1 hr, have not run that fast for some time.
Spinnning class with Sylvie, good instructor, has doe La Da Ja 7 times, talked to Ken, he may do the Utah Half Tri with me, Yoga, had a tough time in the yoga class, ribs still giving me trouble, the instructor kept treating me like a baby, was I acting like a baby? maybe

Early morning swim, one mile, easy does it, worked on form, ribs a little sore after the swim. Run later today. Dogs days of summer, what the heck. Maybe I can talk Sylive into a trail run today, cooler temps.
Nice run with Sylvie at Bryton, Mary's lake, Silver lake, nice temps, happy. Little trail around silver lake perfect for me, low impact, altitude. Long runs will be at silver lake. Not often I get to kick Sylvie's butt, good day for me at altitude.
