So I'm going to use this as a forum to keep people posted on my training and racing, and keeping myself accountable in a way. I don't have the awesome folks on the Well Fit Elite team to push me anymore (These ladies ROCK, by the way, and I miss em a ton)
but in an effort to meet local triathletes and make friends, Jeff and I have reached out to local tri clubs, and I have checked out the Houston Cougars. So far I've met some really awesome people, and gotten in some great workouts.
So from here on out, expect posts about training, racing, my new job, the humidity in Houston ( if anyone needs heat acclimation training, we have a guestroom with your name on it) and what are likely to be weekly posts about how frickin' good the tacos are here.
Because of the move to warmer weather my tri season is much later that my midwestern compadres. Lets forget the minor (major) snafoo at Leon's tri and just move on. Here's how my racing schedule looks for now
August 4th - Bridgeland Sprint
Sept 2nd (yes, on Monday) - Houston Triathlon (Olympic)
Sept 22nd - 5150 Galveston Triathlon (Olympic)
October 27th Austin 70.3
This season is a lot shorter than usual (enough races to keep me ranked, but a couple short of ideal) and thats because 2014 is going to be BIG. Jeff and I have already registered for Ironman Brazil 2014, and plan on racing Ironman Wisconsin again that September. I can't wait to be at this starting line
Not bad for a one year anniversary trip :)
Anyway, I am really excited to see how the next year of training is going to unfold in Texas! its a different game down here with year round outdoor training, and I am SUPER excited about that.
Thats about it for now. Today was a tough training day. Jeff and I got a little banged up on our ride out with Bicycle world. Aimed for 60 miles on the bike + 30 min brick run, but crashed at 45. Long story, and it was a rough day. Got the battle scars to prove it . Back at it tomorrow with a long brick.
