I married an Ironwoman!

Those of you that know me may not necessarily know Natalie, my wife. She is a charger and is fiercely competitive though she regularly denies it. We've trained our butts of this week and I was proud to see her charging through the end of her workouts. I know that we have not completed the Ironman yet, but as far as I'm concerned Natalie is already an Ironwoman. Here was our grueling training schedule this week:

Saturday: 13.5 Miles. 2:01.57. 9:00/mi. Run. 10 miles we ran with our buddy Ken Charity.
Sunday: 34.28 Mile Bike. 2:40.52. 4:41/mi.
Monday: Bike AM 17.12 Miles. 1:17.09. 4:30/mi. then I went for a 10.17 Mile run. 1:32.53. 9:07/mi. and Natalie had to outdo me
running 10.28 Miles 1:22.34. 8:02/mi. Don't know what got her going that fast but I want some!

Most impressive moment:
When I looked down and realized that Natalie and I were charging up our final hill in gear 3/7 without shifting up. We were tired and still kicking butt!

Thanks for following! Tomorrow we have a long am run and we're going to celebrate the 4th of July weekend with some serious workouts! Looking forward to Wednesday Day Off! Haven't taken a recovery day in 6 days.

Happy Fourth of July!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
