7 COLD miles with the group, 2 miles of tempo (or sprints for me) with Mike and Peggy at 7:29's.   

30 min. on the bike trainer at home, legs a little tired.

 1 hr. of bouldering with friends at the gym-this instead of swimming because I'm sick of swimming!!

Swam 1 hr. and 8 min. 3000y w/ some drills and backstroke and 20x100's.  good workout, felt great today.  Listened to music while I swam which was awesome!!  

Tried some new stuff today called SPORT LEGS for recovery.  Took 2pills an hr. before i rode.  They swear by these at SLC running so I thought I'd give them a try.  I felt good, not great but good.  I have a deep tired in my quads I can't get rid of.  I rode at home (outside in the sun, yea!) on my trainer for an hr.  Did an old spin class hill workout, felt pretty good.

We did our own mini half ironman in s.g. this weekend.  We started off with....

25 min. swim in the COLD Sand Hollow res. where the swim will be in 3 weeks.  Felt great, no booties+much =faster swim.

 Then we rode from the res. to S.G. and did one loop of the course, 68 miles, 70 if you count where I got lost.  Took 4 hrs. avg. 16.5 mph.  Right on track, felt good, tried to pace myself.  Not so sure I can do another loop though and then run a marathon!

 We then ran 6 miles of the very hilly, hot miserable run course.   Avg. pace was 9:20 which was good considering I felt like I wanted to lay down and cry.  My legs were heavy and tired.  I did feel better and better as we went though which gives me some hope. 

I only had a little water and no food on the run and by the end I wanted to die!  It was also 85 degrees which it will be when I run in 3 weeks, ahhh!  It was so hot!  I am truly very scared now!!!   It' s going to be so hard!!  One more hard week and one more long weekend is all I have, then it';s time to see if it all was worth it!
