the long awaited triathlon

I did it. I am very proud of myself and believe that in life you have to do hard things. Not necessarily physically hard, things that challenge you. We all know it's a great feeling when you accomplish things that are hard. If you read this blog, then I'm assuming you read my family blog and you have already read about the triathlon. The training I did for this triathlon has convinced me that the best way to train is doing sprints. Up until the last 2 weeks none of my training exceeded 30 minute workouts and it usually consisted of doing sprints. I felt really good during my race except for the transition between biking and running. I had to stop and walk for a bit to get my legs used to running. I can't wait until my next race. On June 6th I want to do the 5k in my city and I think I'm going to recruit Cloe and Brody. I'm going to take them for a few trial runs and then I'll see if they are up for it.

last week: 184.5
this week: 183.4

I'm starting my 3rd week of fit camp and am very optimistic that I will be in the 170's when it ends in 4 weeks.
