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!"

Just a ride, no brick

I was all set to get a brick in tonight but thought the better of it and settled for just riding. Justin was able to make it so I let him set the pace again thinking the bit slower pace would save my groin. We got 40 km in and when we got back to my place I told Justin he was on his own for the run. Good on him that he decided to get his run in and not settle for just the ride. He did just over 5 km and I know he pushed it a bit because he came back pretty gassed and took a few minutes to recover. This is exactly what he needs as part of his training to get ready for Miami.
