Well it seems they are teaching kids how to swim on my regular Monday swim. So there is one swim lane for 4 people and one of them is a slow 80 year old lady doing the back stroke. I hope I am able to do that when I am that age but man it really sucks when you are trying to train. I also feel bad when I accidently hit her because you stop to make sure you didn't break her in half just by touching her arm. I am sure she was fine and it was just a grazing. Anyway, so no swim basically but I did have an awesome cycle class Monday morning.
The weekend was great. I had a a nice long ride and a great long run. Felt really good on the run and the last 5 miles of the bike my back was starting to get tired. I will have a 30 miler this Thursday that should help me out with that.
So my latino friend LR got the new Garmin 305. He loves it. I don't think I will purchase it because I already have the 301 and it is working great for me. I am now looking for a new computer anyway so my money will be going towards that. My old one is about to crap out on me.
So what is the one thing, besides finishing, that I am looking forward to at Ironman?
Well I think having a good run around 4 hours would be my ultimate goal. The bike is going to really drain me but I think I can push through on the run. Of course I will have to see when I get there but I when I train for a goal I have always hit it. So based on those numbers you should see a 4 hour marathon after a 6 hour bike ride.
Take care and have a good one.

"Latino" friend - what are you some kind of bigot
He's no bigot but he does think that he is better than Latinos. Just ask him about his Norwegian heritage.
I noticed he doesn't mention his Latino friend purchasing the Garmin 305. So I wonder if he is inferring that his Latino friend stole it?
Norwegian heritage????? The only thing worthwhile from Norway is Jarlsberg cheese. He sounds like a big Cheese Head!!!!
I think his "Latino friend" should steal his 301 and demand some Jarlsberg cheese as ransom. That will teach the big Cheese head to share his cheese in the future.
Here's to Norwegian heritage:
"Mama, I have da biggest feet in da third grade. Is dat becoss I'm Norvegian?"
"No Ashley, it's because you're NINETEEN."
