The last big build training block for the big race is on-going. Things are going well. I've been able to make the most of my bike training time thanks to the computrainer. Boy, does that thing hurt. This past Saturday it destroyed the tire on a trainer wheel. Granted, the rubber was old. Still, that is just plain cool, when you are able to take a piece of equipment to its limit (without hurting yourself in the process, of course).
On a not-as cool note about equipment failing, the battery inside my SRM powercontrol exploded. WTH? I have no idea why or how. The burst was strong enough it severed cable connections, basically, rendering it out of commission. Since it lightly holds charge, I may try to race with at Boise just so I can have speed, HR and rpm numbers in front of me.
At this point in time, I'm starting to feel the fatigue accumulating in my body. That, and a few nites of reduced sleep hours, and I'm starting to move a little slow. I am looking forward to racing hard next Saturday at Boise, and then to begin the taper down to Ironman Cd'A.
Let's see what we got then.
