Rest Day Today - Sprint Tri tomorrow.

Rest.

I can never get enough of it. I love sleep, but with the growing family and responsiblities I don't have much time for naps these days. I can't even remember the last one I had.

But, for training purposes, I'm going to take today off. Every body needs a break.


Tomorrow I'm planning to (read haven't signed up yet, but can if I want to) do a sprint Triathalon in Port Republic NJ.

A sprint Tri is the shortest one that an athlete can do. Typically it's a half mile swim, followed by a 15-17 mile bike ride and either a 3.1 or 4 mile run. The really good tri athletes can get this done in about an hour and a half. I'm shooting for two, with no expectations to get it done in that amount of time.

The charity Tri that I'm doing in Disney is a one mile swim, followed with a 37 mile bike ride, and a 6 mile run. In the hot Florida sun, I'm just hoping I finish....
