The Dream-Day 66

Since my daughter's graduation started at 10, I decided (with Dominique's prodding) to run before swim training. This, coming from the woman that uttered this gem yesterday during our ride; "The 1/2 IM is in 3 weeks? Will I be ready?". From what I've read, most triathletes ask the same question. What interests me most is when they ask it and how often.

We met at the college just outside the swim venue & took off at 5:45am knocking out 10.2 mi over 90 min. Just for kicks, we hopped a fence encircling articially surfaced soccer fields. They looked so enticing and were a welcomed relief from the hard asphalt we usually run on.

Our timing was perfect. We got back in time to cool down, hydrate, jam some nutrition down our gullets, stretch, and change before hitting the pool to blast out 1.2 miles worth of intervals.

Finished exactly at 9am, showered, dressed, drove home to collect my son, blended up Shakeology, let the dog out, and drove to the high school, parked on a side street several blocks away, and still arrived as scheduled. Not bad.

University Of Delaware...here I come!
