Weekly Recap

Cleveland Triathlon Club WINS the Border War in Geneva!!!!! Gotta love the way Ohio represented!

L-R Kristen Kovach, me, Mark Gorris, Elizabeth Heier, Lou Dredgely, Adam Hunter, Ed Slovenky, Jason Davis (there were quite a few others not pictured that deserved credit as well!)

Currently switching gears between tri training and marathon training. Trying to increase volume some. Last tri of the season is this weekend. The pool has me all messed up lately due to construction. Indoor pool is closed and outdoor pool has limited hours due to daylight and that means no morning swims which is really the only good time for me to fit them in. Ughhh! Supposedly indoor pool should open 9/30. Wish I had one downtown Cleveland by work. Not much is convenient living in Parkman, except the Amish food stand.

Also, I have started to wear my HRM. I believe I have found someone to help coach me next year who is a big proponent of heart rate training so I have started to look at it. So I have started to track some info-
