After freaking out earlier this week about what I got myself into with the RAGE half ironman, I decided to do something about it. On my schedule this weekend I had a 90 minute trail run and a 3 hour bike ride, perfect, Boulder here I come!
Yesterday Cory and I headed to the Mesa Trail near the Flatirons. It wasn't too snowy on the trail so the was a plus.
*These photos are from last winter when we ran the same trail, I forgot my camera yesterday, whoops!
I really like this trail it's challenging and the views are breathtaking the whole way.
After our run we came home watched the olympic marathon trials. I loved watching it but was heart broken for both the female and male 4th place finishers. I had weight training on the schedule too so I got in 45 minutes before heading to my parents house to eat lots of yummy food and watch the Bronco game. The game wasn't fun to watch (for us) but they put in a good season and I hope they come back even stronger next fall.
Today we are heading back to my parents house (hope they don't get sick of us!) for our first transition workout of the year. We are going to ride out to Boulder to Old Stage for some hills and get a good 53 miles in.

When we are done we have a fast transition to a 30 minute run. My parents' community has great running trails so their house is the perfect place to transition.
I am so excited to get my new Kestrel out on the road for the first time today!
What are your plans for the day?
my plans?? trying not to freak out about stuff and get in a 10 mile run.
