June Update

Posted by althoffd Jun 28, 2008

Ok I have not put in anything lately..  My fault but I been busy..  

I did a 5k run a less then a week after the Buffalo Tri the CDI Back in Shape run that is held by the northwestern Collage of health.  Jim was there and was Kristen.. Kristen ran this last year and thought I give it a go since I have not done a 5k yet this year.. I was just going to do a 8 min pace but of course I got going and I did better then that.. only problem is I went by the last water stop I was out of breath and needed to walk I need to do better in the Cardio training for these quick fast runs..

any way I did a PR 23:35 Great time for me.  

I decided to do a 10k in Excelor MN on July 4th and then 8 days later Lifetime Fitness Triathlon.

Have a great 4th weekend to family and friends

over 12 Minutes...    That was Great I was hopping to do it in the low 20 mark not by this much.  The weather could not have been any better except the water temp it read 66 degrees before the 8 am, that first submerge of the body had a rude wake up call.  But I felt great.. the swim was tough as usual.. I did a great job on my bike and did pretty good on the run stilled walked a couple of times (auugghh). I need to do some major brick work before I do the next triathlon.  Even went to Grand old Days in St. Paul it felt good to walk but towards the end of the time I was there the my right calf was very tender..  I hope it will let go..  if not I will be on the bike do a very slow spin..
