You ready? Saturday I am going to swim the course, bike 20 and run 6 then take it easy minus swimming for next week. I might nail some beer Sunday as I am dying to have one.
Last Saturday I wanted to ride 70 miles so I met two people and we rode the course again and we were just starting another short loop and the two guys crashed into each other not paying attention so we had to turn around. Only got 59 miles in.
I am as ready to get next weekend over with so I can drink.
I did my first ever open water swim today on the course. Water was 60 and I somewhat panicked at first but after about a minute I realized I wasn’t going to die and to non pussy myself. I did 1.4 miles in 43 minutes. I have a month with a swim coach to get my shit together.
Lol. I have no idea what the fuck that is. I am on a borrowed Cannondale road bike that’s about $4k a few years ago. I will buy a bike after this to start training for a full. I am such a cycling rookie that I don’t know shit about fuck. I did ride with a guy who was sponsored though and kept up with him. There are only 2 hills on the in my opinion. The first is when you make a left turn about halfway through and you will need to shift down. It’s steep but not long. The second is a longer climb starting at about mile 42 if I remember correctly. I think there is a YouTube video and I will try to find it for you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
For the low low price of $9 a month I will tell you all the secrets plus a 1 time small introductory fee of $500. So avoid bike lanes pretty much until Ga and then the shoulder is awesome for awhile. There are some rough spots in Ga but overall good. I think Chatt will sweep the bike lane before the race but in St Elmo it’s rough as hell. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I tried to sign up for an Ironman prep for this weekend where you swim the course and run a little today and bike the course tomorrow. They said it was full so I saved my $60 and rode the bike course today and will swim tomorrow. I biked it in 3 hours having to wait on traffic lights and shit and felt alright but I was getting a little tired towards the end. I think it was more of a nutrition thing but still fucked with my head a little. I am glad I did it.
Goddamnit I do not want us to get into another war but if there was any country that deserved help from us it is Ukraine. I am tired of the rest of the world not caring about women and children being killed. I want to see dead Russian soldiers 24 hours a day now.
