It's usually those Sunday long-swims that suffered. I just wouldn't make the time for them. Or on the double days I'd only bike or only swim because of time constraints with work. Oh well. Next week is my last week for my summer job, so I should be able to switch the work outs around. I think I may work-out for five days straight and just take the weekends off. We'll see. I can run for about 35-40min straight now, but I'm not sure on the distance. I just go by time. I can't recommend enough those Vibram barefoot running shoes. I know they look weird, but running on the balls of your feet with those shoes is completely different to running in thick-heeling classic running shoes. It makes a huge difference, and you feel more springy. Try them out if you get the chance. I biked about 17km in 36min last week, but honestly I don't know how accurate stationary bikes are for distances. I need to work on my time AND I need a real bike to train on. We'll see what happens. If that doesn't work out I'll just rent one for the race.
It's going to be a busy next two weeks. I've got my last week of summer-work and a research paper to write the first week, and a couple of conferences that I'll be working at the next. At least it'll be interesting. I also just starting using Speedo's "Pace Club" website. It looks like they provide a lot of solid work-outs with video explanations, for free. Hopefully it'll get my swimming up to par...still can't swim 750m non-stop. Which I'll have to be able to do in a month and a half.
Also, it looks like Jared and Jenn are gonna be doing the triathlon too. So that should be cool, although seeing how competitive they can be in the pool, I have a feeling come the actual day it's going to become a competition between us three. Even though they insist that it isn't.
