One More Big Weekend!

I am currently training for Ironman 70.3 Worlds on September 9th.  This past Sunday was a hot and humid day to train in Vegas.  I hope on September 9th the weather is a little better or less humid.  By the time I finished my run on Sunday it was noon.  I would have still been running if it were race day and let me tell you it was HOT.  I can handle the dry hot heat much better than the humid hot heat.  I feel as if my training is going good leading up to this race. It is my last big race for the year and that is always a great feeling. I had a pretty busy year of training and am ready for a little break after this race.  Last year was the first year this race was in Vegas.  I decided to check race results last year.  There is some serious competition in this race.  I realized it is the best in the World and everyone has to qualify, but wow there are some fast age groupers out there.  I am hoping to complete this is 5:30 or better. ...
