Down by the Bay 5k

Let’s see if the legs are moving…

 
At the starting line trying to find a smile … The elevation profile is making the Athens marathon look like a better idea …

  
Got my bib and am ready to go!

  
Not sure I wanted it *this* short. Although it should save some seconds from my marathon time …

  
Lots of elevation gain. Lack of oxygen. Heart rate monitor was broken. Really wish I could have gone longer … Must train more to run to Mariah Pointe …

  
Went running in the woods … Tomorrow I will go to Royal Gorge

  
Did a two hour 9 mile run. 

Could have gone for more. Speed is simply not there.

Did a few relaxed sprints…

here is what my arms looked like before Hawaii 70.3

  
And here is what my surgically altered right side looks like

  
And for comparison the left side

  
So much muscle loss 

  
First post injury run!

Our fitness is gone! Gone!

After 7 weeks of not being able to run, I can now run and swim and bike

I never thought doing 12 hours of training could be something I would miss.
