I did another sprint triathlon today. I'm getting to the point that I really enjoy getting in a sprint each week. I figure if I'm doing that, I'm going to be in great shape for an olympic distance in October. Here's the numbers, 6.7 km - 1 hr 15 minutes (REALLY slow), swim 750 m - 21 minutes (I was thrilled!), bike 23 km - 50 minutes. I was really excited about the swim because for the first time in my life I felt like I got in a rhythm in the swim. I was going fast (for me) and swam the 750 m with only short 15 second breaks every 150 meters or so. I felt REALLY strong today. I was also psyched about hitting the 100 lbs lost mark!

I might join you on this 'sprint a week' idea ... or maybe every other week. Well done for getting another one 'done'. You're gonna be in great shape for your Olympic distance. Has the course been settled yet???
That would be awesome if you joined me in some sprints. I thought if I'm doing them every week or every other week, the Olympic will be fun by the time I get there.
Unfortunately the course hasn't been settled. I've written the race organizers to see if it's really on this year but have gotten no response. I'm thinking it may be June or July until I know.
Congrats on the 100!!
