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. Short-Term Running Goals: 2013 Race Plan - STG Half IronMan, Lake Mead Rage Olympic distance, STG spring relay tri, STG half marathon, STG marathon, Cozumel IM, Utah Summer Games Triathlon at Gunlock, Murray 5k with family and Utah Half Distance Triathlon, 187 mile red rock relay, STG marathon, *note of clarification - cross training miles from biking and swimming calculated as follows: (as someone may wonder) 20 mile an hour bike = 5 cross training miles (those not familar with a 20 mph pace, good bike effort for long distance, swimming, convert 1 hour swimming to 5 cross training miles. For those that do not swim much, great cardio workout.

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: |

Early morning, 4:30 am, ran 4 miles north along JRP and home, nice effort, run and speed walk, avg pace 11 min miles, Sylive ran the second 8 miles with me, kept me going, I work harder chasing her, had some fun holding her off a couple of times, etc. We took some back trails along the river. We passed some ward ladies, maybe Devine's running group, passed them, pace just faster the ward lady pace. Happy with the 16 miles given my knee issues, should be ready for the Half Distance IM next weekend and STG. I may either swim later today or go for a bike ride.
By the way, love holding people off from passing me, had a couple runners passing me, held them off for a while. Sylvie just laughs, one minute I am speed walking and the next minute I am going like crazy trying to keep someone from passing me, miss those old days when I could hold them off.
Spin 1 hr, circuit weights, squats, etc. good effort,
