First Swim

Did a 30 minute swim.

When I paid attention it was about 35 secs per 25 meter lap. So a slow 1500 meter pace or 0.85 miles. On the upside I never felt like I was struggling. I typically swim like a brick and spend a good bit of time hanging on the wall. The fact I could of gone further built some confidence as well.

Yesterday

I ran about 4 miles with Jason. The pace felt good

Saturday

Jason's sick torture session. It was only 30 minutes though.

The Road to the Superforg

So some genius asks me to do the SuperFrog Triathlon on April 11, 2010. So now I have to focus on completing a half ironman. My usual don't train for these things they are stupid does not apply to this distance. Stupid and I do them all the time so really who is stupider.

LCCJ Assessment

To determine my ability to compete and assess my progress I did a 10 minute LCCJ cycle.

16kg x 2

76 reps

Finished up with ab work:

25 Russian Twists

25 Shredders

1 min. Flutter Kicks

1 min. Plank

25 Sit-ups

For the LCCJ I felt strong but, was a little unsteady on the breathing I maintained a 8 rpm pace for the first 4 minutes then dropped down to 7 rpm. I was able to push it on the last 90 seconds.
