Where Does The Time Go?

Wow, it has been over a month since I posted... oh well, I can't go back and change that. Training is going pretty good. Swimming is still great, biking is still good, and running... well, I can't drown on the run. I've been able to swim the 1.2 miles with relative ease, and a couple of weeks ago I got in a 56* mile ride on the bike. Running is coming along OK. Two weeks ago I set a PR in the 5K at 31:46 - over two minutes faster than my previous PR! Now, I just need to work on my brick runs and get my distance up. There is only 6 weeks until the Rocketman Florida 70.3. Just as I did with the blog today, I'm sure I'll be saying, "Where did the time go?!?," but I'm looking forward to the race. I had to take the last week off of training due to illness. And by illness, I really mean "the crud" that comes from allergy and sinus trouble. However, I'm back to 100% now, and should be able to bounce back into training. Until next time! *56 miles was really 55.5, with the last .5 walking due to busting BOTH tubes and only having one spare. Lesson learned: I will have two or three spares with me on race day. However, if I go through 3 spares, I might just give up.
