Race Calander

So, I am not doing so well with the strength training.   I am getting at least one 45-60 minute session a week, but not much more.   Getting restless and wanting to race a bit more, so . . .signed up for a few.   Here is what my race calander is looking like for the rest of the year:

1. 
   
   Kewpee Sprint Triathlon
2. 
   
   Pelontonia Century Ride
3. 
   
   Spirit of Columbus 2 person Relay
4. 
   
   Emerald City 1/2 Marathon
5. 
   
   Deer Creek 1/2 IM
6. 
   
   Columbus 1/2 Marathon
7. 
   
   Stomp the Grapes 1/2 marathon

Maybe I will focus on more strengthening this winter?   LOL!

The Tour De France

As a nod to the Tour and one of my favorite sports characters in the business, enjoy a little bit of Phil!

I LOVE the TDF.   It is absolutely my favorite sporting event to follow and watch on tv.   Needless to say, I have been glued to the TDF this past week already.   Thank goodness for DVR!   I can watch at my leisure now!    So, if you have any question about where I may be in the next few weeks, it is pretty safe to say that if I am not training or at work, then I am likely at home watching the TDF!
