Now that the Las Vegas Triathlon is out of the way, we’ve fixed our focus on the next two races: a half marathon next weekend in Healdsburg, and a 50 mile bike ride in Solvang in November. So yesterday we ran 9 1/2 miles and today we hammered out a 40 mile bike ride. Then to top off the torture I did a two mile run after the bike ride to keep up my tri training. Now between my tired legs and aching sit bones I think I’m ready for a nice spa weekend.
The good news is that Chuck did the 9 mile run and 40 mile bike ride no problem. He was tired, but hey, so was I! He worries a lot about his recovery, and how slowly it’s gone. I think today the answer is a resounding, “Dude, you’re recovered!”
Seriously Charlie – you just had chemotherapy for six months. I think you’ve recovered in no time! But, I know for someone who is so fit their whole life, it must be hard. Good job! I think I might be quicker than I thought – just ran 7miles in 57 min 40 sec. Woo hoo!
That’s awesome!! Are you doing the half in Ireland?
Nope, doing the half in Cardiff, Wales. Jock is running the full in Dublin.
Carpe viam, the both of you!
