Personal:

I go to TCU and am a member of the TriFrogs team here. I just started training for triathlons in August 2010. I ran track throughout high school, but always hated long distance until this summer. Something inside me snapped and I found out that I love it! Unfortunately, I got a stress fracture due to overtraining for a half marathon I was aiming to do in December, but I should be back on my feet soon! In the meantime, I've significantly improved in the biking and swimming! Stay tuned to watch me grow!

I did a brick workout today.

Started in the pool at 7:20 with a quick 150 warm-up, swim, kick, pull. Then, jumped right into a race pace swim 1450 yards and finished in 26:53. 

Straight to cycling class for 50 minutes with a plyometrics workout to top it off. I was beat at the end! Love workouts that make me feel like I'm working toward something and not just going through the motions!

First day back! I felt great and didn't want to stop after what felt like a measly half a mile. But hey, everybody has to start somewhere! I was supposed to "jog" it, but my watch said at the end I was running a 7:49 pace. Well, guess that's my jog! Anyway, I'm sure distance will slow me down as I progress past the baby steps. Feels great to be back again though!

 Went to the gym and got on the elliptical. I only did 2 miles because my legs were tired. Did a 6:30ppm. Lifted weights for an hour afterward.

WOOO! It's all about the baby steps! I ran my first mile today! I didn't want to stop, it felt so great. Crazy how fit I am, but my stupid legs just aren't allowed to work as hard as they want to! Anyway, I did a a "slow" mile and finished in 8:05. Easy breezy.
