We keep on trucking along and September 14 keeps on getting closer. This past Saturday was a big moment for Team McDow. We had our first combined training session. This means that we made the unwise decision to do train for two events on Saturday morning. We did both the ride and swim distances for the triathlon!
Here was our morning:
9 Mile ride to the pool
500 meter swim
9 Mile ride back home
The whole thing took us about 2.5 hours which was not bad since we to combine the ride and swim together and had some down time transiting from the bike to the gym and dripping dry before we headed back to the bikes to see if we could find a different way back home. There was a big hill on Royal Ln that we were not very excited about climbing again. So after a lap around the parking lot we settled in for the big hill (that we walked up and rode down)
We walked around the lake on Friday night & Sunday night and will stat to add more running this week in order to prepare for the race. We will do a repeat performance this Saturday and hopefully our bodies will hold up.
Just to clarify if you were wondering…this is what we do for fun!

Glad that's fun for you. As for us, walking the baby qualifies as a great activity when it is 101° outside with about 60% humidity!
