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!"

Nice and easy

The weather was kind of iffy, it thunderstormed in the afternoon and was forecast for the evening as well so we weren't sure about riding tonight. On top of that my knee was still bugging me so it was all up in the air. Chris and I decided that we'd give it a shot but keep it short and easy. We only did 45 minutes of riding and I didn't even bother to look at what our average speed was, it didn't matter. Chris is tapering and won't be doing anything intense between now and next weekend in Louisville so with my knee issue this was a good chance to just get out and have a fun ride. It was good not to have to chase him all over the countryside.
