Ten weeks down, seven more until race day. Can that be? I'm doing about nine workouts a week, three each of swim, run and bike. I've opted not to do the optional workouts, have been most consistent on the swims and am a little behind on the biking. This week is the peek in terms of volume, including a 2500 yard swim, 60 minute run and 50 mile bike. Next week is a taper week, and then I start speed training. All in all, I feel better than last year. Not as tired, a bit stronger and faster on the bike. Then again, not working helps a lot.
