NOTES:
I would just like to say one thing about Gold's Gym and the ideology that is associated the franchise gym mentality. Its pathetic. In the search for new members, salesmen who pose as "workout experts" are nothing more than fast talking paper pushers. If you want a lesson in fitness- do an Ironman. If you want a lesson in nutrition- do the Master Cleanse. If you think getting a job as a salesmen makes you an intelligent member of the fitness world, just know that the rest of us who live it, look at you and laugh to ourselves.

Back in Business
Saturday- Loooooong Way to Go....
So my blog finally got turned back on by Blogger. Apparently a site that I had to map out a workout was flagged as a spam attack. Glad thats over! Since my incredible experience with the Utah Half and then the Larry H Miller Tour de Utah 300 Ride, I decided to give the workouts a little break.
Wakeboarding one day at the lake turned my world upside down when I tore my MCL. No surgery was needed but it was serious enough that I was left on the DL for a long time. 4 months and 35 pounds later I am back in action!
You will notice my workouts are quite a bit less intense- because that's all I can handle right now!
So here was Saturday's Workout:
Warm-Up
Stretch
Hand stands

Get HR down to 100 (as long as it takes)
5k row for time- 20:57 (UGLY!)

Friday- Pre-Race Day
Eat lots and lots of fruits and drink lots and lots of water. Today is all about getting mentally ready (along with eating the right foods). Aside from the mental aspect, today will be a very long stretch, concentration on increasing flexibility. That means the stretch should hurt a little (30 second on and 20 off). Follow up with plenty of water after the stretch to absorb lactic and other acid build up.
Tomorrow will be my first olympic distance triathlon. This is yet another set on the road to knock out a half ironman and eventually a full ironman.
An olympic distance tri has the following standard distances:
-1500 meter swim (just less than a mile, which is 1600 meters)
-26 bike ride
-10 kilometer run (6.2 miles)
GOALS:
Swim- 34 minutes (avg pace of 2:15/100m)
T1- 4 minutes
Bike- 70 minutes (avg pace of 23mph)
T2- 2 minutes
Run- 49 minutes (avg pace of 8 min/mi)
TOTAL TIME- 2 hours 39 minutes
PLACE- TOP 3 in Group (Clydesdale)
TOP 5 in Age (25-29)
TOP 20 in Gender (Male)
TOP 30 Overall

Tuesday- Indoor
Today the toll of climbing really set in. Although I put on lots of sunscreen, it did little good. I got a knarly sunburn (with water blisters, even) on the back of my arms and shoulder-blades.
I sucked it up and went and played indoor tonight. I ended up playing in two games. We won both. I ended the night as follows:
Game 1
2 goals
2 assists
RESULT- win 7-4
Game 2
4 goals
1 assist
RESULT- win 6-1

Monday- Touch the Clouds
Today I had the most amazing hike of my life. I ascended over 6,000 and hiked up 3 different mountains. Those that had made the trek months and years ago had left a small bottle to be signed for surviving. I was absolutely beautiful. Once again the pictures don't do the view and justice but the give you and idea of the altitude.
Side note- I got the all time worst sunburn ever! I had no shirt and my pack on the entire time. So now I have a angel wing sunburn. Sweet!
Here are some pictures of the day....

Today I hiked up the famous Y mountain. Once I got up to the Y I just couldn't stop so I ascended on (without a trail) for quite a ways further.
Check out the following link for more info about the Y:
Wikipedia- Y Mountain
What an amazing hike! Well hike slash climb! It took me just under 30 min to reach the Y from the start but I continued on for another 2 and a half hours. Total hike/climb was 3 hours and avg hr was 140.

Today I gave blood. Something I believe everyone should try to do. But because of this I am forced into a rest day.

If I feel up to it I am going to play indoor tonight, but most likely its just a rest day.
