April 26, Thursday

Today I  biked for 5.2 miles in 33 minutes. Than I tried the transition to running. It worked better today.  I was able to work quickly into a more comfortable pace than last time which I maintained for a full mile.  Learning to use the 21 gears on my bike in a more efficient way helped me to cover the last hill with less impact on the thighs.

We also visited Mercer County Park today to check out the venue of the triathlon I am planning to run in August.  The lake looks a little scarey, but the bike and run paths are flat and well marked.  Still have a lot to learn about how to prepare for event day though.
