Today I did a hard 2 hour bike session with my friend Karen Burks, who is VERY powerful on the bike these days!&nbsp; It was the first time in many months I did a session like this - it was hard, but fun.&nbsp; I have not been running much, but I think I will get back to it soon.&nbsp; Triathlon has not been a priority this year, but hopefully 2009 will be my best&nbsp; racing season ever!</p>Sat, 19 Jul 2008 12:45:27 GMT
