Friday 8/1
20 minute run - 15 minute bike - 10 min run - gotta love the fitness center at work.
Saturday 8/2
Biked the 11 mile + loop of the race - lots of low and slow grades and some just plain steep hills. I say 11 + cause I missed a turn and went way out of my way and had to backtrack. Now I have a feel for the course. I'm most concerned about the running after the biking and getting my legs back/
Sunday 8/3
Day of rest. Went to Thomas the Tank with Ben. It was a big deal! And good fun.
Talked to my friend who prefers to remain nameless - She said my training for the Iron Girl inspired her to do an event. She signed up for an event after a few glasses of wine. Warning: Don't Drink & Register. No this wasn't a 5K she signed up for but a 25K. Twice around the Mpls chain of lakes. Lovely scenery - but no way could I run that far. Good on ya ____!
Parent In Training
- Kay
- My name is Kay. I'm a parent in training to Ben and Vivian. I am also in training for the Iron Girl duathalon in September. It is an event for women only run 2 miles bike 22 miles and run 2 miles. It is my goal to accomplish this in honor of my 40th birthday. I also want to get healthy and fit after being perpetually pregnant since 2005. My husband Peter is also a parent in training. In addition is his training for the Twin Cities Marathon in October. So are we nuts? Two parents with two under 3 trying to fit in time to get fit? Perhaps. But we are enjoying the journey with our kids in tow.
