45 mile bike ride.  Much easier and safer then the 15th.  Didn't really seems too touch of a ride.  I'm gaining a little more confidence of the distance.  The 15th kind of scared me a little.  Nothing scary to report on today's 45 miler.

Started swimming today.  I think the lake is finally warm enough to start swimming 3 days a week now.  I've only got about 2 1/2 months to get into swimming shape for the big TRI.  I swam about 30 minutes, felt pretty good.

8 mile run.  Hot and windy.

 

Too windy to swim.  White caps, too large.

30 mile bike ride.  It was raining this morning, so I did my ride this afternoon.  I wouldn't want my beautiful bike to rust. 

Good ride.  Nothing interesting to report.

Rainy morning again.  Ran on the tread mill.  8 miles on a tread mill stinks.  I did a 12 once.  Did a little speed.  Found out that I'm still in pretty good shape.

My 8 year old graduated from 2nd grade today.  I went to the awards ceremony.  She's improved so much this year.  She's such a good read and loves math.  It makes a father proud.  Her teacher cried and said she was going to miss her.

25 mile bike ride.  Pretty easy.  Got passed by about 1000 trucks and boats all heading to the lake for memorial weekend.  It should be fun.
