So yesterday I went for my short run. It was only 21 minutes and it was freezing out! I thought I would be ok once I got moving but it took me forever to warm up . The first half of the run was brutal. I had to stop to walk twice in the beginning and my lungs were killing. The second half was like a whole new run! I felt great and could have keep on going for a really lone time! I think I got into a good rhythm and started to have a little bit more confidence in my running abilities.
To be honest... this is the part of the race that I am the most worried about. I feel like swimming will get better and biking should be no problem. My fear is that I will get off the bike and have nothing left in my legs for the run. I really hope that is not the case.
All in all I ended up running 3km in 21 minutes which would put my 4.5km finish time at around 32 minutes on a good day. I know I can pick op the pace with more practice and my goal is to do the entire run on race day with no walking in under 30 minutes. The sad thing is..... 4.5 km would take Dave 18 minutes at the most! Gross..... oh well... maybe one day I will beat him!.
This afternoon is my long bike so it should be interesting.
Talk to you soon!
