Since my last post, it has been live pretty much as usual. Training, working, and enjoying the great weather. Oh, I did have a birthday. Not a monumental birthday, just a regular birthday. ;-P

This photo was taken by my Dad on Sunday evening in front of our place. They took us out for dinner to celebrate my birthday and Tim's (which is coming up next week).

Great looking photo of your family. Next Saturday the 19th is my first attempt at doing a triathlon. I'll be doing a sprint even though I like longer races. Everybody and their mother told me since it's my first one to do the sprint...so I gave in and will enjoy it. It's in Washington just east of Seattle. then I will drive back to Oregon as on Fathers day I'm running an 8K as part of my marathon training. so it will be busy. Keep up your good work and your training.

April Fools 1/2 Marathon Plus 15km cool down

After my minor breakdown at work on Friday, I set off on Saturday for Sechelt.  I have run the April Fool's Half Marathon two times and this was my third time.  It never fails to be hilly and hard.   Sunday morning I started off at in Gibsons ready to run to Mission Point Park.  I took it very conservatively knowing that I would be adding another 15kms on at the end of the 'race'.   I crossed the finish line, collected my medal, filled my water bottles, ate a  piece of bagel and a bite of banana and kept running west.   I do not recommend running your longest run before a marathon in Sechelt if you are not used to hills.  That place is full of 12-15% grades both up and down. At the end of the day, I ran from 9:17am - 2pm with a few quick breaks to refill bottles, eat gels and take few rocks out of my shoes.   After a shower and some real food, I was back on the ferry to North Vancouver.  Reward:  Whit...

Fully Cooked

With one week of high volume running before my marathon on April 28th, I am feeling fully cooked. After a rest day on Monday, I switched up my track workout day and my trainer ride day.  We secured tickets to the second to last Canucks home game on Tuesday night so I couldn't do my track workout.   I did my trainer ride in the morning on Tuesday and my track workout on Wednesday. Instead of going solo at the track last night I created a workout in Garmin and downloaded it to my Garmin 920XT.   10 min warm up 8 x 1 mile with 90 seconds rest 10 min cool down Let me tell you, this workout completely exhausted me.  I came home after the run, showered and ate but I felt so drained.  After a bit of rest on the sofa, I was able to feel better and went straight to bed.   Today I skipped my 6am swim in favour of an extra hour of sleep.   My mantra for the week is 'just one more week'.  Just one more week of heavy volume ...
