Week 12 Totals
Back into the swing of long, slow volume this week. 8:25 total trianing time: 5600 meters in the pool, 74 miles on the bike, and 14 miles of running.
That brings the grand total for the last twelve weeks to 98 hours 25 minutes of training: 41,700 meters in the pool (that's a full marathon: 26+ miles!), 689 miles riding, and 178 miles running.
Two weeks to go until the yearly MS ride. I'm doing the century again this year, so that will be 150 miles in two days, hopefully with some running thrown in. I was hoping to have afew longer days on the bike by now, but things are busier than usual.
SOMA is looking more and more like a realisty for the last weekend in October. This 1/2 iron distance race takes place on the same ground as IMAZ, so it's very appealing in a dry-run sense. After SOMA, it will be time for training camp as school lets out and I'm a free man.
Other scheduled events include a week of on-course training in November (I'll be crashing at Kristy's aunt and uncle, Tom and Shanlee's place), the OC Marathon after the new year, and perhaps something else before the Big Race.
