Less than 20 days until Race Day!


We have been training very hard this season, and especially the past two weeks. We have been increasing our distances and workout times to build endurance- and in the coming weeks before the race, the focus will be on gaining speed - it is a RACE after all!

While biking and running long distances are challenging, I still think that the hardest part is going to be the swim. Getting used to swimming in a wet suit in the open water is something that really takes some getting used to! The more we practice the better we get, so I am hoping it will become second-nature. We have another "mock-tri" this weekend, where we will practice all three parts of the race, as well as the transitions in between.

I am excited to see some of my teammates go off to Maui this weekend for their  race event! Hopefully they will have a great race, and return with some helpful insights for the rest of us!
