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: |

I was going to record these miles and easy miles, well, cheetah walking is tough, 14 mph avg pace, my likely marathon pace. Goal, get the pace down to 12 min miles. Swim workout later today.
3 months with no running, muscles are sore working those running muscles again.
Mile swim, 12 X 150 yrds, low energy today for whatever meeting.
Counting laps, seem to always lose count, swam extra laps again today, either 3 or 6 extra laps.

1 mile swim, 2 x 500 yrds, 16 laps working on form, tired today.
1 hr spin, weigths and circuit.
Got the oil changed in the truck, read the part of the Joe Friel training bible, had an awakening, must replenish, protein and carbs when working out. I have not been good about this part of training, mixed up some exelecrade and drank during hte spin, lesson learned.

2 hrs spinning, good 20mph effort, first week on IM training, self grade B, need to improve on the swimming workouts, goal to complete all workouts next week, did not complete the 45 minutes non-stop swimming after the 500 sets. Holidays aslo contributed to the decrease in time to workout.
