    Gray day at Pine Dunes

Notes
  • Ironman training has begun! I'll write more about my race schedule soon, but I am training for Ironman Lake Placid. 
  • My goal this time around for ironman training is to be more consistent i.e.  not taking more than one rest day in a row.  
  • I have 24 more weeks to go till the race.
  • I'm enjoying that the weather has been a bit better and I'm able to get outside at least for a few runs.  I'm looking forward to biking outside as well.
