Been of the blog for a bit and have been fighting to get back on to regular training since San Fran. I have been fighting a athletes foot infection that turned bacterial on me and has been on my foot and other parts for a good five weeks now. All the meds and the pain associated with my skin healing, flaking and falling off has been a challenge but we have completed the first four week base phase of my 20 week plan to Augusta 70.3 in September. Training has gone fairly well and I am only missing one or two of my scheduled 10 to 11 workouts per week. Since I already have one race under the belt that should not be to much of a detriment to the training.
I am signed up for a race Sunday at Lake West Point in LaGrange, GA, an Olympic distance race. My goals for the race if I nail it are to break 2:30 which would be a 13 min improvement over my best Olympic Distance time to date. I would love to get into the top 10 in my age group but looking back at the past two years you need about a 2:26 to to that, and I am not sure my run is there yet. My goals are:
1500 m swim: 26:00
T1: 1:00
40K Bike: 1:14:00 (20.1 mph)
T2: :45
10K Run: 49:00 (7:53m/min)
That would be a 2:30:45 time. Lets see how it goes and I will update Monday
