am swim at lost creek...it was a little chilly out there...ok there was a breeze that felt a little cooler than 100 degrees...so that was nice...the workout was crowded and tough...not sure where everyone came from but there they were...5 total in my lane...did a w/o of 2700m...it was a good one...i had fun...had a hot shower and a hot chocolate when i got home...i was still cool...weird...
spent most of the day reading and doing stuff around the house...got some things mailed to our buddies in rochester who just had a baby girl...and took a nap...i got up early to see j off to the airport for a really early flight to CA where he spent the day in a meeting and flew back in the night...it is funny how 4.15 is so much earlier than 5am...
pm spin...with a little core before...good workout...i like spin class...it is hot and hard and there are like 30 other people in the room doing it too so it is nice to know it's not just you...did about 1h15m on the bike...
i like that this week is starting out solid..and i am feeling strong...it is going to be a tough one though...no rest day since i am racing sunday...doing my long run friday morning...long bike/brick saturday...sprint sunday...i am still up in the air about the austin tri...i feel like i have been racing a lot...and not having many off days because of it...and well...stuff...but i am also thinking i need to get more racing in to practice calming myself down before the swim...and just general race prep stuff...i am good at getting my transition set up right...and getting out of there...knowing where all the in/outs are...then i just go and chill by the water...i have that part down...i dunno...i need to decide soon...

I liked doing some B-priority races, just to practice handling race-day nerves (mainly triathlons and their checklists and making sure I had all the logistics down), or focusing on one aspect, etc. Maybe pick one or two things to focus on to add some "meaning" to doing the race? Drafting on the swim? Bike nutrition? Or negative splitting the run after a bit of a splash and ride? Of course, not adding an extra race into your schedule has value too :-)
