A great weekend.

It has been a great weekend. Even thought the weather was iffy on Saturday, I got out for a quick 60 km ride with Rob and a few other teammates.  We went out from Ardrossan to the Josephburg fire hall and back in two hours.

Sunday was a wash out (literally) with a rained out golf game, but Monday, I had time to get in a 21.1km run in the heat of the day.  I ran to the Ft. Edmonton loop, and when I got to the part near the river, the trail was closed. The river was a bit high so the city closed the trail dur to the high water levels.  I had to back track to get around and up Keillor road, thru the University farm and around to the Power line trail.
The run was good and I feel ready for the Great White North race next weekend. http://www.gwntriathlon.com

Today I was up early and went to the pool but it was shut down due to some kind of "electrial problems".  I checked later and was able to swim 2000 meters non-stop,  just swimming, a straight up front crawl, a bit slow,but no problem...

This is the time to step up the training. The next month is will be the most important month of the year so I can train and have time to taper a few weeks before Ironman Canada.

If I put together more weekends like this I should be ready.
