Hey all, I’m getting really excited about this upcoming season of my life and fitness program.  I have several triathlons, bike rides, and runs.  The soonest races of mine are an early bike ride in May, with my peak races being in July being the Lake Stevens 70.3 Ironman, and the Seattle to Portland bicycle race.  My question for you is, that I am thinking about signing up for an early April Marathon race to jumpstart my training.  But I really want to peak for the Lake Stevens 70.3 in July.  In August I am doing another marathon, and in September I am going to try and run a 50k (Mackenzie River run).  Is this too much racing for a season?  Will my peak be all screwed up?

Well, the last few weeks have been hit and miss on the consistency of my workouts.  The recent raquet ball playing doesn’t get me a good enough workout, and I’ve been counting it. =) The last 3 days I had good workouts on my indoor bike trainer, and I am feeling good about it.  With the temps outside dropping into the 20’s, everyone around me is coming to work sick with all different symptoms.  I really don’t want this sickness, it looks terrible.  I need to up the healthy food, up the vitamins, and up the cardio fitness level.
