All you need to do is pump those legs on the bike and GO FAST! <BR/><BR/>I got my highest speed average this week, 19.3 for 30 miles. It hurt a lot but I did it.

You had a great run split considering the 2-minute stroll up the stairs.<BR/><BR/>The only thing missing is a photo of the print-out "evidence". Your pretty bike is having a sneaky effect on your rivals - they all slow down to take a geek when they go past - or maybe they just ease off on the gas to admire your ripped arms ;)Ewenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01093209634556111656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18623487.post-43404588601433113972008-06-11T08:12:00.000-07:002008-06-11T08:12:00.000-07:00Great job.

Way to overcome that for a kicka$$ time and place in your AG!<BR/><BR/>Don't feel bad about the wheezing, I do it too and can't help it (I've tried to fix it to no avail, and it only happens in the run portion of triathlons, don't know why).<BR/><BR/>Also, If I lived in CA this would be my favorite race for the start time, prizes (wine) and scenery (LOVED your first picture with the light streaming through the trees.<BR/><BR/>Oh yeah, way to pass people on the swim too. So long, suckahs!<BR/><BR/>You are seriously a stud.

You both rocked it!!!!! Even with your short walk break you were smoking the run with a pace like that after those hills on the bike. Still can not believe that a portion of it was on a bike path. Not good.<BR/><BR/>Love it... and all of the pictures. great that you both could do this event and see each other out on the course.<BR/><BR/>IM 2009?..... are you thinking it??Gotta Run.....https://www.blogger.com/profile/03647983887882662002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18623487.post-56117262871594772008-06-09T21:37:00.000-07:002008-06-09T21:37:00.000-07:00Great job!

It took me nearly 6 months to get used to bike shoes and over a year before I could stand up and ride out of the saddle.
