Beginning Week 3 of Tri Training

Moving into week 3 of triathlon training...  I have yet to complete a full week of all the trainings.  This week I missed a swim.  However I did get both runs in.  I was very happy with completing the short run (3 miles) at an 8:29 pace and then for the long run I did a 5 mile race which I completed in just under 44 minutes.   My pace for the race was a bit more sporadic completing mile one in under 8 minutes but mile 4 was 10 minutes.  The race was tough completely in the sun, a ridiculous amount of sweat and it was pretty humid, plus I wore my new shorts which caused major chaffing so I will not be wearing them again.  Ouch!

Looking forward to actually being able to complete all of the training this week since we will not be going away for the weekend yet again.  I need to actually sign up for the triathlon and find and ride an actual bike instead of just the stationary one in the gym.
