Yesterday as I got out of my car to go into the gym, I looked down and noticed that my shin splints were gone! I was so excited! I immediately headed to a treadmill, did a 2 minute warm-up, then ran 1.5 miles. I ran at a slow pace (6.5mph), but it felt so good. After, I did the elliptical machine for 20 minutes and then some weight lifting. I ended with my yoga class. After I got home I noticed that my shin was a little swollen. I will wait until probably Saturday before I try running again. I don't know how I will work up to six miles in six weeks, but I will give it a try.
Tonight I was planning on swimming, but it looks like I won't make it to my spin class tomorrow, so I think I will give my bike its first real test run (if it doesn't rain)!

What is this about?
I have devoted a whole blog to my training. I started racing in triathlons in 2006 and have really embraced it! It gives me something to work towards. This blog is my daily workout schedules, weigh ins, rants, etc. My initial intention was for it to serve as a monitoring blog where people could push me to work harder or more often if I started to slack. Now, it is mainly a log of my hard work.
