1. This weekend is the
Boulder Peak Olympic distance triathlon. I'm pretty nervous. As you may remember it contains the climb up Old Stage that got the best of me in the pre ride. In addition to that it's only my second oly distance. I just went back and read my
report from last year. It was not a pretty race and I anticipate this one to be much different if only because of the size. I'm thinking about my goals for this race. I'm not sure where to set them. I believe that I would be happy with anything under 3:30 which I realize should not be that big of a stretch, but remember I'm slow. :) I do think my run is stronger this year so hopefully I can do much better although it sounds like it's going to be pretty hot.
2. Nutrition. I practiced this on my ride this past weekend and I gotta say I feel like I did a pretty good job of hitting it on the head for the bike. Of course I didn't run after so I'm not sure how it will work with that but I felt great after riding and not like I wanted to eat everything in sight as I usually do. So I'm looking forward to seeing how it goes this weekend.
3. 31 DAYS UNTIL BOULDER 70.3
