So... Just finished USMS National Championships in Gresham.
I just did two events:
- 1500m, 19 min 17 sec and a new long course PR by 30 secs... Good for 4th in the Nation!
- 400m, 4min 49 sec, and a new long course PR... Good for 6th.
Then... Mid week, I did the 5km ePostal (50m pool)... In a new PR of 1hr 11min. (...We are doing the 10km in two weeks.)
It has been fun to take the summer off (this year off?) from biking and running. I have ridden my bike 38 miles this year, and swum 380 miles!
The first place for the 10km OWS Nationals was the highlight.
I am planning for a 70.3 next year... But gotta start training soon.
I think I'll skip the Tiki swim. Even though my calendar is free.... It was a busy summer, and I want to enjoy the last rays here. And get some Kiteboarding in before winter.
I did the Portland Bridge swim last year. Not sure I want to suffer another kayaker through that.... I am seriously thinking the English Channel is in my future. Maybe once I get some kids to College. I met a lady last week who is doing Catalina next weekend. Serious stuff.
I missed this somehow. Congrats on the 19:17 and then 4:49. Those are great times.
What was your Bridge Swim time?
maybe she's born with it, maybe it's chlorine
