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!"

Rain means indoors.
Its miserable outdoors. It's raining, sometimes torrentially and it doesn't look like there's any chance of letting up. That means I train indoors today. I haven't been on the trainer in a few weeks and am not looking forward to it. It's boring and harder then riding on the road and I swear the laws of physics cease to exist. They say that time slows down the closer you get to the speed of light. Well that also applies to spinning. Without a doubt, an hour of spinning seems like it takes 2. So I set up the trainer and do an hour and a half and surprisingly it's not too bad. I'm pushing a harder gear than I normally would and not feeling it. Being on the road the past few weeks seems to have helped more then I expected. Make no mistake though, I have no desire to continue spinning indoors. After the spin its on to the treadmill for an hour run. Nothing difficult, just a good steady pace. Not bad for a miserable rainy day.
