My workouts have been uneventful over the past few days with the exception of improving my running/walking time. I gained a whole minute; going from 3.1 miles in 44.5 minutes to 33.5 minutes. I had to really push for that extra minute though. At about the 22 minute mark I felt like I was going to give up. However I was determined to make it. "Dig deep" I kept telling myself.
I found out a few days ago that the YMCA is offering a 1/2 sprint triathlon race in late July. It would consist of a 400 meter swim, 9 mile bike ride and a 1.5 mile run. I am seriously thinking of going for it. My foot has been doing okay and my endurance keeps getting better. I am going to start taking my bike to the park to practice riding. I also have another bike ride route I am going to try that would be around 8 miles. The deadline for entering the race is July 10th, so I figure I will keep going at this rate and see where I am in early July. I really want to do this so I will have to start really pushing.
Tomorrow: 400 meter swim; no time limit.
