So lets sum up this season…November 3rd 2008 I got back in the water with a 2300 yard workout. Every m-w-f until September 11 2009 I was there at the pool dropping 3500-12000 yds a day. This year…Same thing. Got me a few more weeks and then it’s time to look towards next season. 2008 is over for me, no need to look back after this.

You can see that these events are pretty darn close together. It was a good year. I'm pleased with the outcome, I know my weakness is running and I'm working on that. Swimming comes easy, cycling comes easy, I don't really work at it. Hell, I didn't even get on my bike for real until June. Besides that I’ve been taking it pretty easy lately. I want to start training again so that’s good. I was getting real close to burning out. All these pumpkin ales are helping me put some of the weight back on. I’ve been working on a schedule for 2010 and 2011. If money permits I may do something real big this year. 12.2 mile Open water as part of a relay. That will surely blow my lats up. That’s all for now.
