7 weeks and counting

7 weeks and counting. In a just 49 days, I will embark on my next Ironman triathlon adventure. Coeur d'Alene, Idaho is the destination. On June 22, I will trying to better my time by at least 2h and 30m. My goal: a sub-13 hour Ironman. Training has been going well. Putting in long hours on the bike and the run. For instance, in the last 8 days, I have ridden over 100 miles, run over 50 and swam over 8000 yards. It only gets tougher from this point forward. I am confident in a sub 13-hour because of the change in focus on how I train. It is all about the aerobic heart rate and staying within that range. I have an aggressive goal of a sub 12-hour, but will be very pleased with a sub 13-hour.

Once CDA is done, I have a small amount of time off before I start training for the Ironman Arizona in November. 6 months and counting... 2 Ironmans in 1 year: what was I thinking?
