I started out too fast on my time trial. The first 100 was a 1:20, but I seemed to pick it back up at the end when some &$#%@** parked in front of the timing clock.

HIT class for 2 hrs. Abs and gluts are sore tonight.

Biked from Sand Hollow to Town Square (24 miles) at a 19 mph average. We ran the IM course in 4.5 mile drills of running up and down twice. Our average pace was 8:43. Then, we biked back to Sand Hollow in the small ring only so we could spin out our legs. Our pace back was 15.7 mph. We felt good and we all recovered nicely!!!

Another africa run in the dark. It felt liked I was being tracked the whole time. I may have ran faster than a 8:30 pace

Had to run a 90 min run. Ran with Breanna & Jamie at their pace. It was nice to slow down since it was a hilly course!

We swam sand hollow res.  We did 1 mile, transitioned to a short 8 mile bike, and ran 4 miles at a 7:50 on rollers. The water was a sweaty 53 degrees, but air temp was nice and no wind... yeah!
