Welcome to TRI-CHOTOMY.



I'm just an averge age grouper blogging about Triathlon Training and this complex puzzle of juggling life, having fun and the Tri(als) and Tri(bulations) of "My Reality Show". With the Miami Ironman 70.3 race now in the books I've set a new goal, competing and completing Ironman Louisville 2011 in August. Twice the distance, twice the pain, twice the fun. As a warm up race and I never would have believed hearing myself say this, I'll be doing Ironman 70.3 Rhode Island in July. Once again I'll be sharing these experiences with my great friends Chris and Justin and look forward to the next several months of training and racing with them.

I'll share my training, race and gear experiences and hope you'll comment and even offer advice from your experiences.

Remember,

"Pain is Temporary, Quitting Lasts Forever".

"Life shouldn't be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, cliff bar in one hand, Gatorade in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"

"You can sleep when you're dead!"

Hills for Justin

As per Justin's request, tonight we did hills. To add to the pain we had a 25 kph headwind, cooler than normal weather and a consistent up grade to get to the hills. So the plan was to get Justin's legs fatigued and that called for a couple of reps of the Webb Road hills. Out of the saddle at the bottom and power up as far as he could get. He did well and if we can continue weekly hills he'll strengthen his legs, build up aerobically and be able to gain some speed and stamina. It is going to have to hurt though. Normally I'd do a run afterwards but I'm still a little tender in my heal so no run tonight. This is hopefully not going to continue much longer and my heal will start feeling better because I sure don't want to lose all the run gains I've made to date.
