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: |

Early morning run, nice to get out, knees felt better, legs a little tired from yesterday, kept a steady marathon pace at about 9:30s. My assessment, with a couple of days rest before the marathon, could likely run this pace for about 15 miles, with the last 11.2 as survival. That is ok, can only do what you can do. Rode the spin bike for an hour, some stretching. Less intense day. Hope to hit a 70 mile running and cross training mile week the next couple of weeks.
Stay Kool, b of bs rools out
One note, a guy passed me on the trail, hate when someone passes me, gave me motivation to stay on his heels for 3/4 mile until he turned.

Mini Brick day - rode the spin bike hard for 24 minutes, 22 mph pace, hopped on the treadmill, 9 min mile pace at 3% grade for two miles, nice effort, legs felt good, ran out of lunch time.
After work 24 miles spinning, high cadence effort, spin out the legs, watching rerun of BYU and Washington.
Hopefully, a simulated sprint Tri on friday, getting ready for the 18th.
