SALUTE, Inc. -- Honor The Service

Throughout 2010 I'm helping raise money and awareness for a wonderful military family support organization: SALUTE, INC.

As an endurance athlete I've come to appreciate nothing more than the freedom to swim, bike and run -- for fun and fitness.

I can enjoy these activities because there are Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines and Guardsmen out in the world ensuring my, and your, freedom to do so.

This is my, and your, chance to say thank you. SALUTE, INC., passionately pursues meeting the financial, physical and emotional needs of the military service members, veterans and their families.

Gettings Stronger, Going Longer.

Around the festivities of the kids' race, I got some great training in last week too. With a little more than 3 months to go, I'm hitting stride and in to the heart of my training. It feels great.

Despite my best efforts to minimize the impact of my workouts on family time, I think it might be a bit more than Heidi bargained for. Perhaps there should be an "Ironman Widow/Widower" support group.

My Week 21 Accomplishments:

Mon., 5/18: An off day.

Tues., 5/19: Swim workout, about 2750 yards with a lot of sprinting. My friend Kate swam with me. It was nice to share the workout.

Weds., 5/20: Running workout at the track. Last day of Sprint Supersets. Yeah. About 4 miles total.

Thurs., 5/21: 20 miles on the bike. High RPM spinning.

Fri., 5/22: Swim workout, about 3200 yards.

Sat., 5/23: 14 mile endurance run.

Sun., 5/24: See below: Multisports Madness Kids' Triathlon w/ Cole and Abby. No workout, just running around as a proud and excited parent.

Mon, 5/25: Happy Memorial Day. Thanks to all the soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines who gave their all so I have the FREEDOM to do these workouts and races for fun. A triple brick day: 3 x (20 mile bike plus 3 mile run).
