Today a headed out early to meet up with Greg, Ryan, Marty, Pat, Brian, and a few other for what was supposed to be an easy 40 miles in zone two. The first half of the ride was beautiful… there was a lot of hills climbing but the beautiful scenery made up for the pain […]
Last night I had an unbelievably good swim at Coronado Masters. Dave Wilcox and I accounted for 100% of the male representation in Lane 4. I led the lane and swam the workout pretty hard. I didnt let Wilcox and the women rest very much. After we had already swam about 2600m the coach decided […]

The track workout was tough. The main set was:

Today was the La Jolla Half Marathon. I love race day! The excitement of the crowd at a large race is awesome. This event had about 5500 participants which is pretty big compared to the other 1/2 marathons in San Diego.
The course started out at the Del Mar Fairgrounds and went out to PCH. Then […]
Last night was the first track practice I had done in about a month. The one word that best describes last nights workout for me is “rough.” The workout itself was not bad and was shorter than what Felipe usually gives us. The main set was 6*800 at race pace. I usually finish right in […]

As I am sure you have noticed, I have not been blogging very much the past two weeks. The combination of being sick and preparing to move has left very little time for training and blogging. Today is the first day I have felt better in the past 3 days so I think I am […]
