Eric's Half-Ironman Training

I am now training for my second half-ironman race. The race is in Boulder this time in August, 2007. I finished the Florida Half-Ironman in May, 2007. Wish me luck!

I wore my tri suit today. I also wore my wet suit over it. I wanted to work on transition, especially after the swim. I set up a transition area with my bike shoes, helmet, GU, water, towel, sunglasses. I didn't bring my bike inside because I didn't think it was necessary. After the time trial swim, I quickly walked to my transition area.

This was my swim leg for the Simply Stu World Wide Triathlon. I am doing this triathlon over a period of 2-3 days. I am doing a non-traditional long course triathlon. I will be doing a long bike ride this evening and a long 15 mile run on Sunday.

Transition Time: 2:05.70
