Snowmageddon/Snowpocalypse a detriment to training!

Hi everyone, I know, I have slacked in keeping the blog up to date.  The last week of training has truly been a challenge.  The 2+ feet of snow and 2 snow storms have been a wall in my training.  I didn't an opportunity to swim or run much due to weather - pool closed, roads were, well, WHAT ROADS?  Hit the bike, indoors of course, and some weight lifting.  In the grand scheme of things though, the bike and weights were only a few days in over a week.  I will say though, my shoulders and back got a good workout shoveling endless amounts of snow.  When I get a chance, hopefully today or tomorrow, I'll get some photos up showing the setup we have at home.

Today, the plan is to hit the pool for an hour, maybe run for 10 or so minutes, then head home.  Tomorrow, hopefully, practice will be on, and I'll have a chance to get a workout in - 100 minute bike ride, transition to a 15 minute run.

6 weeks left until the Manassas Tune-up Tri
10 weeks left until the main event, St. Anthony's Tri in St. Petersburg

Thanks for all your support, through your encouragements and your donations.  Soon, I hope to have an update for you all regarding our good friend and honored teammate, Winnie.

UPDATE: It's official, group ride practice is canceled tomorrow! >:(  Damn the snow!!!
