racing season

I did a duathlon last weekend and the red island relay this weekend. i was pleased with my performance in both races. i was second overall last weekend and second today in the solo division and 9th overall out of 73 teams. In both cases , it was quite a bit better then i did last year. i am particularly happy with my running. today, i passed a couple of people running that i have never passed before. my coaching i have been receiving from pro triathlete, Torsten Abel, is really been beneficial. Next weekend, i am doing the mooseman 70.3 so i hope this trend continues. i have been so busy racing that i have had much time to do a lot of training in between. But, i am looking forward to mooseman as it is always a fun roadtrip. Before i know it, my trip to China will be coming up in early sept for the ITU Worlds. I also decided last week to go to Lake Placid this summer to watch the race and sign up for next year. that should be fun as well. I will take my bike and do some riding as well as swimming.
