When I gave Coach Julio German 4 weeks to prep me for Rhode Island 70.3 last year I knew triathlon training would never be the same for me. I like to think of 2012 as my base for this season. A season to get my tri legs back under me. My recurring thought this season was -holy crap, I have never prepared so thoroughly for a race in my life! I went into each race this season feeling so ready that my usual pre-race nerves were minimal. Even waiting in Kailua Bay last week I knew I had done everything Coachulio asked of me and that was enough to make it a great day! Even a week later I'm sitting here ready to get moving again and that has never happened after an Ironman or marathon!i thought I'd be ready to pack it in and wait for ski season, but I just love the way my body responded to this Ironman training and race! Back in the old days it took months to get back in the game, but this time I've already given Coachulio his winter assignment-a new 5k pr and possibly a sub 5:00 minute mile. The Faust Pack and I are excited for a winter of skiing hard and running fast!
