Outside that is! Yesterday was a gorgeous spring day with beautiful blue skys. It was time to bring training to the outdoor arena. It was the perfect day. I was able to wear my new running jacket that I got for Christmas and finally to break in the running pants I bought back in November for the ill-fated bridge run. So happy I finally got a chance to use them! The training yesterday, a 40 minute bike ride and a 20 minute run. Today I met my tri buddy at the pool and we swam 300 yards and I did manage to squeeze in a short run. That concluded the first week of tri training.
It is officially 11 weeks to my first tri of the season. I am in much better shape than I was last year at this time, but I still have so far to go. Saturday is our first road race of the season, a 5K, and I am very excited! We will be racing with some of my favorite ladies and then heading to breakfast at my favorite diner. I just can't wait!
