I started this blog with the intention of documenting my training for my first Half Ironman race in late October of 2012. It was kind of fun keeping track of everything so I decided to keep going. Who knows where this is headed but I will keep the information rolling and see where it goes.

Bike/Run Brick 7.6.12
Got up early today for the bike/run brick this morning. Plan had me doing an easy 60 minute ride followed by an easy 15 minute run. I had either get up early or do this later tonight. I chose this morning to give my body some time to recover before the long Saturday ride. Started the ride at around 5:50am. Did not push it at all really. Only averaged a little over 15mph. Stayed mostly in Coppell and tried to avoid the busy commuter paths. Ride lasted 1:02. Pulled into the garage and changed into my running shoes. Ran for 15 minutes at an easy 9:20 pace. All of the running this week made the run a little tougher than it needed to be but I felt fine. Sun was coming up and you could feel the temperature start to rise. Now I have all day to do what I want and have almost made it through a very tough build week. Nutrition for the workout: 1 bottle of water for ride, 1 shark salt before ride, 1 Triberry GU at 32 minutes in ride, Endurox R4 after run.
