Training Resumes

I got the training let down blues and I'm ready to start again. Tomorrow, I'll start both Ironman Triathlon and Ultramarathon training. I will use my 100 mile stage running race in the Himalayas to get me ready for Ironman where I hope to break 12 hours. Again, I hope to place in the top 5 in the Himalayas and know that it will be hard as I haven't done any altitude training. I was told that it is like being hung over. But I don't think I'll drink every night to establish this feeling. If I can get enough time off, I'll try to go out to Colorado to experience the real thing. What do you think?

I will get back in the water tomorrow, Thursday I'll up my run mileage and bike over the weekend. I will also get one of my bikes on a trainer as I don't have much time to spend outdoors. Damm that work!!! It gets in the way. But we do what we have to do.

My injuries are looking good as I haven't really pushed it. The test will be this weekend when I put everything together. Anyone want to go for a ride with me, let me know.
