Just a quick update before we have to head to our third session of the day, with running mechanics specialist Bobby McGee. Actually I ran out of time, so it's now after 9 and I need to wrap up quick for bed.
So far today we have done a couple hours of transition practice/demonstration, as well as a bike handling skills assesment. There are varying levels of experience with cycling and triathlon for that matter, at the camp.
After a lot of standing in the sun, weaving through cones, and a couple of hot laps on the warmup track of the velodrome, we grabbed some lunch, and Jeff Helmer, (my roomate) and I crashed out for a quick nap.
Then it was on to swim workout where we did a pretty tough, but not too long workout. Kalen Darling, Sean (can't remember last name right now), and I did 3x4x200 on 2:30. Which was long course meters. At 6,000 feet. Ouch.
Then on to swimming specialist Dr. G, who picked our strokes apart and gave us all a LOT of things that we can do better. This was a pretty cool session that utilized cutting edge swim analyses technology.
Dinner.
Run 45min aerobic, pretty sweet trails, I was the only "swimmer" to head out with the "runners", but to my enjoyment, I kept up fine.
Dinner phase 2.
Chatted with Mark Fretta for a bit. (once ranked #1 in the world for ITU)
Bedtime. I've resorted to bullets cause I'm getting quite tired.
