Training Calendar Addition…
During a recent 5K fun run, I saw someone wearing IM Rockford 70.3 swag. I’ve been out of the game for a bit because I had no idea Rockford had a 70.3. I checked it out, and it mostly fits in my training calendar. I’d prefer it were a month later, but I’ll be out of town for those 70.3 races.
So, I signed up today. The week before, I have a 3:30 bike and 9 mile run as my longer weekend workouts. The bike would easily cover the 70.3, and the run is close enough that I can push it. BUT, I probably won’t have any open water swims by them (Lake Michigan will be cold).
Oh well, it’s not like I haven’t had a few 70.3 death marches before. If you see a racer with the “I made a big mistake” look on their face, that’ll be me.
