"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who at the worst, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."

Never, Never, Never Quit.

FIGHT....................FINISH

Countdown to B2B

I CAN

July over

So July is in the books and it turned out to be a great month. I had a few swims canceled or shortened due to the weather but other than that, exceeded all my goals for the month.

19250 yards swimming
610 miles biking
109 miles running

Just a hair over 60 hours for the month and only took 3 days off. Those numbers will all go up in August as my long workouts increase even more. But, with my wife going back to work this Friday, it will be a little more difficult to get the workouts in. More early morning and evening workouts will be required.

We're under 90 days until B2B now. I feel like I'm where I should be at this point and look forward to the taper in October. But before then, lots of miles swimming, biking and running.

August has started out pretty good as I got in an 80 mile bike ride and short 2 mile transition run on Saturday and just did a 14 mile run this morning.
