About a month to go until 'Bama (Southeast Xterra Championship)....... this will be my first "A" race of the year. Is gonna be a tough race - should have some heavy hitters there in my AG, but hopefully with a long bike section, I should be able to hang towards the front pack. I've ridden that course once before and its a LOT of fun - some good steady climbs with some good technical descents......... definitely a great mtb course. BigBlue will be scouting it out the week before with the Bump and Grind.
This week I've been takin it ez as my last recovery week before 2 Build weeks and then a Peak week - and I'm needing this recovery for sure. Seems like all the training is coming around - I've been feeling good on the bike and swim - even my running has improved (a little). Not that its where it should be, but I can at least tell there has been some improvement. So for the rest of the week I'm gonna ENJOY the light training load and get ready for the next couple of weeks of ramping it up. I'm planning on using next weeks BFAST sprint tri to test my running off the bike. Planning on going as hard as possible for the 5K along a good hard effort on the bike. Should provide some insight on what I can hold for the short distance, so we'll see.
Well, I'm takin the day off from training - and, actually, I'm gonna FINALLY clean the Spark (uh, yeah, from Yargo 2weeks ago), so that'll be some work for sure. I hope that thing still works.
