Next summer starts now

So, I have been lucky enough to meet a lot of great people in triathlon over the last 12 years.  One of those people is going to coach me for the upcoming seaon(s) and help get me to a place to utilize all of my ability.   It is hard to coach yourself, especially when there is so much data that atler your ability to subjective and obljective with your own plannig. I have learned that I have no problem coaching other athletes but I can't control myself the way I would anothe athlete...so Breakthrough Perfomance Coaching is taking over!

Breakthrough Performance Coaching is going to help me get to the next level.  I sat with Jeff Cappobianco for about 2 hours the other day as we talked about the sport , life, trainnig and fitting it all in.  Jeff stands out because he knows how crazy me life is, He is a firefighter and comprehends the unknown circumstances of the public service life.

I start my base testing this week and the swim went well and I seemed to feel pretty good.  Tomorrow will be a track workout followed by a bike test on Saturday.  My plan is set in two phases, 2 yr plan is IM in 2014 and 1yr plan is have a kick ass race at the World Sprint Championships in London Sept. 2013.   I have never been this excited to start training, here we go 2013!

recovery time

It has been a long time since I have written here.  To put it all down will take forever, so I will just give you the short version.  I finished up racing at Witch City, 2nd overall, The AG nationals Sprint where I qualified for the worlds in London,  Then raced the Nahant beach tri, 1st over all. 

I recently ran the cape cod half marathon with my brother and watch time was 1:34.  I have agreed to work with BreakThrough Performance coaching where Jeff Cap and the crew are going to bring me to the next level.  I plan on 2 70.3's and the World sprint Championships for 2013.  My goal is to go sub 4:30 on the halfs and represent the US as best as I can.  The long future is 2014 with an Ironman and try and break 10 hours. 

I know these are lofty goals but you can't get better without a challenge!
