End of the rest

Once more around (in a figurative sense). My "loop" of three miles on the treadmill, if it actually existed, would be getting well worn by this point. But hey, what's one more time?

Run: 3 miles @ 7.2 mph

Quoted from the Triathlete Magazine Ironman and Ironman 70.3 Qualifier's Guide:

Ironman 70.3 Muskoka
Bike: The one-loop bike should be challenging. There won't be any lengthy climbs, but athletes will be face over 30 small hills.

On the one hand, that's pretty good for me, since I pretty much float up climbs. I don't weigh anything, and have a high tolerance for pain. On the other hand, I can't attack these hills as an exercise in hurt, since I'll still have to run 13.1 miles afterwards. Looks like I need to learn to rein things in on rolling terrain.

If only that were a road race. 30 small hills sounds like my kind of course!
