Jubilant July 2017 Update – Fueled by NBH, Friends and Teammates
My July BLOG – Fueled by NBH, Friends and Teammates Wow what a month of fun, victory & gratitude!! Another semester of eight weeks of exams complete & thankful for an A grade of 98% for my introduction to pharmacology. Physical training ramped up with three days of four runs followed by a fabulous 750-mile bike ride from Davis to Oregon Border and back with my confidence booster Kim Freitas. The heat was good training for keeping hydrated and nourished. The stars were bright and the nights made fun by riding with new friends from other states and warm welcomes at the check points. The month culminated with me beating my personal best Ironman time of 12h30 in 2007 with a remarkable 11h59. A big shout out to Felipe at Sports Basement Sunnyvale for his expertise, wisdom & help in dialing in my bike fit to maximize my performance in both events. Now for the analysis of what caused the significant changes and the remaining areas of focus to get to THE “Kona IM”.
