captex here i come!!!!
i decided to do the captextri on memorial day. i did it the last 2 years with a 2:31 finish the first year and 2:23 last yr. last yr i wanted to go 2:15 but after knee problems it didnt run for a month b4 the race. this year i plan to be more prepared and finish under 2:15. i will need a 22min swim and run under 7min miles. no sweat : )
sunday was a nice bike/run workout. i hit s. mopac for a few hrs and a goal of doing the 8mile several times and getting faster each loop. i managed to get that done even though the wind was making it tough. avg about 20mph for actual riding and totaled about 43 miles in 2:12. after bike went directly into a 2 mile transition run. made the decision to hit it hard and ended up with a 13:11 time running 6:35 miles. HR was 148 for run and felt good even though i was really working. goal for the next 2 months to focus on tranny runs so i can really improve on my run times. goal for captex is 6:45 miles and 7min miles in lubbock.
yesterday was a shitty swim and we can leave it at that. its been awhile since i felt that weak in the pool so i hope it was just fatigue catching up. got a new bed last night and it is the bomb. its a kingsize simmons beauty rest with memory foam and a pillow top. no more back problems!!!!! today was an off day. legs are feeling better but knees are sore. back to the grind tomorrow with a little bit of everything.
