Chicago Marathon training

Officially started Chicago marathon training yesterday with a 17 mile run with the GE runners. Likely that was too far for me given I've only run 12-13 as my longest run this year and that was a few weeks ago. Today I'm extremely sore and tight!  Hopefully my legs make a quick recovery so that I can progress from here.  

Naperville Triathlon

7/8/17- Naperville tri was Sunday and I won my age group.  Perfect day and great race overall. I was able to hang on in the swim thanks to running as far into the water as I could and then standing up and running out of the water at the end as soon as I got to waist deep.  The bike went well and I paced off a faster cyclist for most of the way.  The run started a little slow, but then after about a mile I picked it up.  1:01:06 and 17th overall. I'm happy with that! Now the only race left is the Chicago Marathon!
