Two repeats of 2.5 miles today, the only problem was by the time we got out to where we were running I realized I forgot my watch. The plan for today was to have emaurine practice each part of the triathlon, and she did exceptionally well! She started with a swim that was 400m, a bike that was 12.5miles and finished with a run of 2.55miles. Watching her today she really impressed me, I never had any doubts that she would not do well with this new competition, but she looked incredibly strong today for her first time putting all three together. In fact, her run at the end was at a faster pace than any 5k races she has completed. The race is next saturday! My runs were both around 16-17 minutes, however I did forget my stopwatch. These past two weeks I have been doing the majority of what emaurine has been doing to strengthen my base. After her triathlon next saturday we will begin focusing our workouts more on running to get prepared for the Mankato Marathon in October. |
