32 Days left
Only 32 days until the big race. I can believe that it is so close, and I cant wait to see if all the HARD training is going to pay out. I bet it will. I feel great, I am in the best shape of my life. I can swim, bike and run faster then I ever have.
I am pretty sure that by now I have put 100's of hours into the saddle and 100's of hours into my running shoes. My body is responding very well to the training. I can not believe that I can train my body to accomplish what it has accomplished in the last few months. I have learned more about my body in the last three months then I ever have before.
I cant wait to race and give it 100%. Team Krauss rules

Once again
Once again all I can say is I am sorry for not posting anything in sooo long. but I have not had any time for anything. So here is a quick update.
Training is going really well. Only one month away from the big race. I cant wait.
I finally bought new running shoes, still getting used to them, but so far they seem to be OK.
About two weeks ago I finally broke the 1,000 mile mark on my bike, YAY.
I have been riding and running A LOT. I just started serious swim training back up. It will take a few days until I am back into it.
Ill make sure to post everyday or at least every other day from now on.

Update
Sorry that I have been tardy on posting. The last 10 days have been pretty crazy, not really because of training but because of Swaps birthday part last sunday and then my birthday on thursday. And on top of all that I got a new job with requires much more then I thought it would.
Training has been lacking a little. I know, it sucks and I really hate myself for it, but what can you do. Had two pretty solid days yesterday and today. SO hopefully I can focus more now and be back in the swing of things starting tomorrow.
Sorry this is short, but I am beat.

Man, what a day
Rain all day long. SO lame, couldnt ride my bike like I wanted to, could not even go run. Maybe this is a good thing so my leg gets a little more rest. But WTF. Now I can only get 3 bikes in this week and I dont even know how I can get another run besides the brick on sunday. GD.
Went to the gym for about an hour. Did some leg workouts and some core (i guess). I am bummed I hate days like this. Hopefully tomorrow the weather will be better and I can ride, man I have to ride and more then that I WANT to ride. October is coming up fast (or maybe not), I hate when thigs dont go like I planned. Maybe I just need to chill, what are a few not so good days. I guess I still have a lot of time.
Whatever

Good day
So i need to get this of my mind. I wanted to run 9 miles in the hills today and after about 5 miles my lower leg hurt so bad I had to call it quits. I really hate when stuf f like this happens. i know it is the right thing to do so I dont hurt it more. BUT I HATE IT. Oh well, tomorrow is another day.
Weather was pretty crazy today, huricane Dolly made landfall in south Texas this morning and some of it made it up here late in the afternoon. So part of my run was in pouring rain, which is really nice after running in 100 degree weather for the last 4 weeks.
Swim this morning went well. I swan the 1500 meters 4 minutes faster then I ever have. Maybe taking 2 weeks of swimming was a good idea.
Thats all

What a day
Today was a great day. As I had mentioned in yesterdays post Swaps turned 4 today. We had such a fun day. It started with me getting of work early and coming to unwrap PRESENTS. She was so stoked, and so was Sus and I. The we went to Barton Springs Pool. We had a blast playing in the water and getting cotten candy and ice cream.
Then we went home for just about an hour and then went to CHUCK E. CHEESE's. It was off the chain. At first I went in there telling myself that I was going to stick to my diet and not eat Pizza. But about 5 min into playing games and having the best time with my girls that was over. I eat Pizza like I have never had it before and drank cherry coke like there is no tomorrow, and it was so worth it.
So no training today and pizza and soda = great day.
Back on schedule tomorrow. Swimming in the AM and then hopefully riding my bike. News is saying that a hurricane is coming so that might 86 the bike, my Plan B is a 9 mile run (rain or shine).
I dont know if Susa (my gf) reads this but if you do, thank you for supporting my training and always pushing me to tain harder and longer. YOU ARE THE BEST
Once again happy birthday Swaps.
