Heat Wave

I'm enjoying the warmer temps today!!!

It's supposed to be almost 50 degrees here today and I've got to tell you I'm resisting the urge to put on a t-shirt and shorts and go soak up some sun. I was pretty much done with winter after the ice storm and multiple day power outage so this is a welcome reprieve if only for a day.

Yesterday I hit the Y and did 3.5 miles on the treadmill alternating between walking and jogging...and I lived to tell about it! I'm trying to decide if I should virtual bike or swim today. I haven't been in the pool since before Christmas so I really need to get back to that. As mentioned before the triathlon (typed triathlong...Freudian slip?) distances are more than anticipated. What I was expecting was swim 400 yards, bike 9 miles, run 2 miles. What came out with the registration info is swim 1/2 mile, bike 16 miles, run 3.1 miles. The new distances are more in line with what they call a sprint triathlon. Distances are subject to change and Tamara mentioned she thought they've had issues at Disney World finding the room to set up a course at sprint distances. So we'll see. I'm now focused on the longer distances and will work toward those.

In the meantime, I'm going to dig out some summer clothes...or maybe I'll just skip the winter jacket today...
