RIDE:
2.5 hours, on a new saddle, which I hope will solve some new bike problems.
6 x 10 minutes @ between 300-330 watts along Lyons Plains road. 2-3 minutes rest. Good to have a powermeter for outdoor training now.

RUN:
Stratton-Faxon Danbury 1/2 Marathon.
1.13:20 5th place. 5:35 pace
Did a good 15 minute warm-up. Ate a ton before the race, was really hungry. The course was hilly and it was windy in parts. My goal was 1.15 so I am very pleased with this race. I will be even happier if I can walk tomorrow.
Then did another 15-20 min slow run with Catherine and Bailey. Then they dropped me when I started to walk.

Random Cannondale Photo
Random photo on the Cannondale website of me sitting second wheel in a Bethel Series crit....I'm the one with the triathlete arms.
Thursday, April 8th
BIKE:
out for 3 hours but there was much tinkering with saddle and bars for the first 1.5 hours.
Finally got it right. My bars were too low, causing me to be unstable on the saddle. My sit bones were not supported. After I got set up I was able to do some sustained efforts on route 17 and 77 east of New Haven. These are great TT training roads!
RUN:
35 minutes.
Got in a 25 minute light tempo effort after warm-up. Held 5:50 pace, which is only ok, but it feels really relaxed, almost effortless and fun. I have never experience that while running.

BIKE:
After 30 minutes of tinkering with fit on the new tri bike I went out for another 1.5 hours tinkering with the fit some more. Mostly soft pedaling, and the Adamo saddle is a no-go.

Sunday, April 4th
RUN:
20 miles. The first 4 miles took forever, may 55 minutes. The rest of the run was great coming at around 7:15 pace. The twisty trails with 3 miles to go were a bad idea. I felt really good considering it was my longest run ever.

Had to pee, got out and never went back. It is hard to get back to swimming after taking time off.
BIKE:
6 hours (100.01 miles)
Rode from New Haven to Quassy. Did the 56 mile 1/2 Rev course and then back home. Beautiful day for a ride.
The Quassy rev3 bike course is great, but not a traditional tri TT course. The terrain dictates the effort, not you. It will be ez to get over excited in the beginning...you need to be patient and then punchy at the end.
