Triathlon Stage 2

Well I'm through the initiation phase of the Triathlon training and I'm definitely seeing improvements already.  Yesterday I ran at about 8.5mph or faster, topping out at 10mph.  My swimming seems improved as well, I do another T15 a week from today.  The number of workouts increases for the next 8 weeks, but they are more spread out. 

The first 4 weeks some of the days felt like boom or bust days.  Tuesdays were loaded and wed/fri was virtually nothing.  That has kind of evened out for this next stretch.  Plus the weather is getting nicer which means no more running on a treadmill or riding on trainer.  That will make all of this much easier to be motivated to do.

My busy stretch also starts now.  I've got 3 upcoming fantasy baseball drafts, a trip to Omaha to watch the NCAA wrestling championships.  Followed by Easter weekend and a trip to Milwaukee.  The trip to Milwaukee is going to be good and bad, I'm going to need to pack stuff to run, bike, and swim since we'll be up there from Thursday through Sunday, but it will be nice to run and bike on different routes. 

Tune in to see how the first week in the new schedule goes, and how next weeks T15 ends up, I'm shooting for 950.
