My Next Very Occasional Post

Here is my just about yearly catchup post. I finished up last year's triathlon season really well. I'd love to
tell you my official 2021 score and ranking but it seems to not be quite correct. But as of now, its looking like i'll easily be in the top 10 for state/age group. Also, possibly my highest overall score ever. 

How did I do it? I guess it's all the biking I do now! I'm a biker! I now do all the maintenance and work on my bike (Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance-like). That and I've managed to get a 5 mile run in every week. And I can get that into the 6:30-6:50 range. I'm not sure I could run many more miles without damaging my knee but that ain't bad for an old guy like me. 

I haven't swam at all due to the continued pandemic. But I will be doing a VERY aggressive triathlon season this year (starting in exactly a week!) I have been doing swim simulation exercises and expect to have a wetsuit until around Memorial Day when the outdoor pools open. So I'll survive those and let me biking/running help me early on. 

Not sure I'll be able to get to all the tri's I have planned due to pandemic, life, etc. But it's great to plan and I am excited about competing again.
