The transistion to the back of the pack has not been easy, but, acceptance, stay in the game, root for others, enjoy the rest of the journey. Another off the bucket list second = Provo Half IM - have done 6 open water Tris and 6 pool Tris. Gave the STG IM a good Tri, hope to take another shot at the IM.

Personal: BSRools, the B stands for Brent and the S for Sylvie. The Rools come from my personal running rools over the years: Never complain once the run starts, allways pick up the pace into the wind and always pick up the pace on a hill. If someone whines, pick up the pace. Once a goal is set, no whining, regardless of setbacks. We were running when running was not Kool. Kool comes from a race story, ran my first race, 5K wearing a "beanie that had "Kool Aid Kid" Favorite Blogs: |

| 56 miles, with Sue, Di and I forgot his name. Good hard paced ride, taking turns keeping on pace. around the south west end of the valley, much of the ride against the wind, hills, etc. very good training ride for the STG Half IM. Di did about half the ride, she did a hard 19 mile run in Park City yesterday, and I forgot is name, dropped off the pace when we turned around and the Lehi turn on redwood. Self assessment, ready for the bike ride, just keep up the hard work Run - need two or three 12 mile runs over the next three weeks, Swim, need to swim 5 days a week the next couple of weeks, work on keeping good form when tired, need a couple open water swims before the half, Rage Olympic distance should help with a mile open water swim. Conclusion, training is on the right track, keep riding with Sue whenever possible, she is the Kona queen of pacing. |

Spin 48 minutes with weights after, curls, bench flys and slant board. Energy level good, could work out some more, but, same some for tomorrow. Stay kool, b of BS Rools out |

| JRP, 12 miles, 6 north and back home, seems often running on tired legs, practiced forcing myself to run when the legs were saying no. I am going to be doing this a bunch this year with the Tri cutoff times. Nothing special about the run, see a couple other runners. Spin 1 hour, medium effort to loosen up the legs from running. Legs feel better. Good luck to everyone capturing running's holy grail this next monday at Boston. Drink a green beer for me. Stay Kool, B of BS Rools out |
