Fri. Aug 10-Ran 5 miles in 47 minutes at dusk on the Cherry Creek Trail south to the first gate. Felt really good. Although ate dinner at like 9:30PM.
Sat. Aug 11-Yard work in the AM for 4 hours (reaching down to pull weeds really works your hammies and I got carpal tunnel from weeding in the rocks). Swam at 4:30PM for an hour and 15 minutes. I must have done 4,000 yds. (always good to have an audience). I did a hard 1,000 yds. at the end and then 3 underwater 25's (breaststroke). I must be inspired by Dara Torres.
Sun. Aug. 12-Bike ride out to Deertrail and back 38.6 miles (without a rest break). I felt so great! Separating my run from the bike by running Fri. evening instead of Sat. AM, really helped. I can't believe how easy all those hills seemed, when they were so hard this spring. Thanks to the Courage Classic and Copper Triangle! I can't wait to show Mom this route next Sunday when she is down (bring the Bianchi Mamacita).

Hez, you are really swimming fantastic. I am amazed by how you train so hard and consistantly (especially in the evenings, when I get home from work all I ever want to do is veg out and sleep).
I wish that I could be there for your next Tri. Please know that I am proud of your efforts!
