Brick today.  Should of been yesterdays workout.  But needed to get in a long run to get ready for Ogden.  So the brick today was to prepare for the next 2 weekends.  With the dual and tri coming up.  So did the 75 min bike and only 20 run instead of 40.  But its all good.  On the ride we went for part of the route I did on Fri.  With like 3 fairly flat then the next 3 or so a uphill climb.  Was pretty good workout.  We worked on gear shifting and when to shift.  Which really makes a huge difference.  We hit 2 hills later on in the ride.  And just flew up and over them like they weren't really there.  Its all in the shifting and when to shift.  We both hit a top speed of 39.11 on this ride.  After getting home.  Changed over to our running shoes and went for a 2 mile run.  Avg pace of 9:30 which was pretty good recovery.  Legs are feeling good today.  Just tired.  And took a 2:30 hr nap. Feeling good about the races coming up.:)

I get going over 25 on my bike and I get nervous. I think it's a sign of old age. Or maybe an exaggerated case of risk aversion.

Good job!

Looking good Mark! Mr. Triathlete now! Hey I was wondering what you were shooting for in St. George?

Maynard- Yea I hear you. If your riding something other then a road or tri bike. 25 is a good speed on a flat road on a tri or road bike. So going downhill is even that much faster for sure. 35+ is just cooking though.

Vinh- At SGM I am planning on going for a 3:15(BQ) if all goes well. It will be a great race if you make it in
