5 Weeks to Lake Stevens

Just over a month to Lake Stevens 70.3.   I am doing Chelanman 70.3 this week end so I'm not doing the regular schedule. I am kind of doing a mini-taper.  Not expecting any great things from this race. I am hoping to match my performance from last year which was 5:32.  The course has two monster climbs and is usually very hot (90's).

Hope everyone is enjoying getting back to the training routine.

  • Good Luck, but don't be a hero out there this weekend Steve!!!! Have some fun and make sure everyone knows that you did an Ironman just three weeks ago. Oh, and leave the Garmin on the bike... image I'm going to my 20 yr HS reunion in Spokane and will be hooking up with EN member Al Olsen (and maybe the local Tri group) on Saturday for a 3 hour ride.
  • I'm gonna give the watch another chance on this one, but have it tucked under my wetsuit. I couldn't possibly loose it again....could I???

  • I did a 3 x 8 (2') Z4 workout on Monday and didn't feel any strain in my knees. I'm planning to do a few more bike workouts and maybe a short run over the next few days. Since we're a month out from Lake Stevens, I'm going to gradually increase my workouts up to the RR on 7/30. The RR will be my final answer on whether my knees are ready for an HIM an I will make the decision on whether to register.
