Back again. Again.

One thing is obvious: I'm not much of a blogger. But the Augusta 70.3 is getting closer, and my training is heating up (well, South Carolina is heating up--101 forecast for tomorrow, with a "feels like" temperature of...hell).
We have just returned from our annual sojourn to the great North Woods of Wisconsin. I can't think of any place more beautiful to spend July. And a great place to train. I got in several long runs, a few good long rides (the roads are fantastic: rolling hills, tree canopies, and amazing pavement), and a couple open water swims. I even wore my Xterra wetsuit one morning cause it was, to be blunt, chilly.
One evening I ran 9 miles from HoneyRock camp to Lickety-Spiltz Ice Cream Shop in Three Lakes. I rewarded myself with a single scoop of Coconut Joy (best ice cream flavor in the history of the world). Remember that? That was awesome.
Getting up early in the morning for a long ride/run brick. Hoping to beat the heat. If I'm done by 9 or 9:30, I should be OK/survive.
