Improvement

I have now done about 4 races and shown quite a bit of improvement over last year, in each race. I have done two duathlons, a half ironman and the red island relay. my running in particular has improved but also my cycling. My enthusiasm for training and racing has been high but we have had a couple of days of bad weather and I have been feeling a bit lazy. I am doing a triathlon this coming weekend in Fredericton. NB and hope to keep on with the trend of showing improvement.

I have also changed my diet a bit with less carbs from bread and pasta and more protein, vegies and fruit. I am not sure yet how that is going to work with my training and racing as I used to eat alot of bread and bagels. We will see. I have lost a few pounds over the last week or so and am around 150 which is about as light as I have ever been in my adult life. Tomorrow i am scheduled to do a 3000 swim and a speed workout running. Wednesday is a two hour bike ride and another swim i think. I would like to try to do one of the cyling pei thursday night bike rides as they are very tough and good training.
