Wow. I'm really starting to get down to it. One month from tomorrow is the big day. I can't believe how far I've come. This is the final week of intensive training. I remember looking at this week almost a year ago and wondering how I was going to manage to get through it. 18 hours total. A 2 hour swim/bike, a 2 mile swim, an 80 minute run, a 3 hour/16 mile run and a 6 hour bike ride(the last two I haven't done), but so far I've made it through all the rest, and I have no worries about completing the remaining workouts done. I'm feeling great, very little soreness. No trouble with sleeping, my weight has finally stabilized.
Today was a fun run. I thought I had waited out the rain, turns out I only waited out a window. It was nice to start and about 30 minutes into the run the rain began, and then the downpour began. Oh well. Got through it. Soaked to the bone, but managed to get through.
I'm getting really excited about race day at this point. By monday afternoon I will be finished with my toughest workouts. Then I'll have a recovery week before I begin the 3 weeks of tapering. I can't believe I've made it here! Only a short time to go!
