Good stuff. If the training was only so easy. It seems the weeks are clicking by now that fall has arrived. The trainer is becoming my best friend right now. I figured I pass time faster if I'm reading while spinning away so I'll have to find some good books to read during the winter months for those 3 hour trainer rides. If I can keep my long ride of the week right around 3 hours throughout the winter that will really give a good base for starting the real Ironman training come January.
I got my first issue of my Triathlon magazine subscription. It's a cool issue because it's right before the World Championships in Kona so there's all kinds of cool little tidbits. I also like oggling over all the cool advertisements for equipment.
I still have to figure out which wetsuit, triathlon suit, and triathlon bike to purchase. I'm probably going to go either Cervelo or the new Specialized Transition because of a good team deal I'll get with River City Bicycles. River City Bicycles is the bomb! It's amazing because I read today in the Road Rider Newsletter that cycling is down because normal people are just hating their local bicycle shop customer service. River City has awesome service and the place is always hoping with racers, commuters and just people wanting to ride. I guess I'm a little worried that I won't be able to find such a good shop in Washington DC after the move next year.
The move is getting closer and closer. Amber and Joe are scouting out places next week so I'll have Elena for 5 days straight. Hopefully, she'll be able to deal with me for that long. We've definitely been battling here and there recently. I think it will go well and it should be a good change of pace. I'll have to cut back on my workouts a little but that's okay. It is only October.
The fall TV season is in full swing and my DVR is working overtime but I'm glad to have so I can see great shows like My Name is Earl and my favorite show of all-time The Simpsons. But I'm already behind on Heroes. Hopefully, I'll be able to catch up this weekend during some rest and relaxation time.
