Ironman Augusta 70.3 - 44 Days to go

This morning we saw some guests off and as I walked them outside I was pleased to see some cool fog. Definitely looked like a morning for a run, even though I wasn't planning on it. My knee was feeling better, so out the door with my Garmin GPS. I had the most incredible run ever! I did 4.2 miles with an average speed of 10:07 per mile. Here's what was the coolest... My fastest mile was 9:55 and my slowest was 10:12. Incredibly consistent over the entire time. It's the fastest I've fun by far and it was really a great feeling.

What else has been wonderful is that my knee has not been hurting at all today. Usually, after a run, it takes a day to settle out. Today, it's felt great during and after the run. I'm hoping that's a sign of things to come.

This afternoon I did 2000M in the pool. It was a nice mellow pace... not too fast nor too slow. I realized that my race Sunday, with a swim distance of 400M, I should be out of the pool in under 10 minutes... Isn't that crazy?

Sunday's triathlon will be fun. 400M swim, 15 mile bike, and 3.1 mile run. I'm figuring a time of 10 minutes on the swim, 1 hr on the bike, and 32 minutes on the run, so with good transitions I should be done in 1:50 or so. Sweet.
