How's the Training?

well, this past saturday, i biked 27 miles in central park in about 2.5 hours. that's probably really slow... but at least i know now i am able to bike the triathlon distance (26 miles) that i'm supposed to do.

the 6.2 mile run, i think i generally complete it in about an hour and 15 minutes.

the swim is what i need to seriously work on. i probably should be in the pool everyday for even at least half-hour. i'm not even sure if i can swim 0.5 miles continuously in a pool, much less 0.9 miles in the hudson river. but i've progressed and i have 6 weeks to go. on june 17, i get to do a trial swim in the open water. can't wait...

the bridge that remains to be crossed is if i would be able to put all of these together. all the trainings so far are separate. i intend to rule the course and not the other way around.

if you haven't donated yet, make sure to do it now! my fundraising deadline is june 16!
