I plan on writing a diary about my tri training so here goes. Maybe I will post this somewhere once I am done or maybe not; but its for me more than anything so i can track my accomplishments and failures and my ups and downs through the next 7 or so months.
On Halloween 2009 I signed up for the New York Nautica Triathlon which will be held on July 18th 2010. Not sure what I was thinking or why exactly I am doing this.
I think I am doing it is because I really enjoyed training for my Danskin Sprint Tri which took place in Sept. Running in the park, biking through the Palisades, swimming in the sea at Brighton Beach. I loved being able to train outdoors. It was so much more fun than going to the gym. Also, I hope that post NY Tri I will be in the best shape ever coz this is not something you can train for a month or 2. This is serious shit. So the plan is to start with full gusto once i get back from India in January till then I want to do regular work-outs of running - biking -swimming. I love to swim but my biggest fear is running. I am going to sign up for some duathlons and sprint tri's before the Big Race. That is the plan lets see how it goes. Wish me Luck :).
