Iron Legs

It was warm and sunny night for tonights track workout. I had seriously heavy legs from last night’s bike TT. I tried to tell myself, “This is what my legs will feel like at IronMan.” I felt much better a mile into the run, and ended up working pretty hard with Amy and Andrew H.

Exciting News

It’s official. I’m a faculty member in the AMBL teaching lab at the Michael Smith Laboratories at UBC; makers of the science scouts, the science creative quarterly, Make magazine’s article on “Home Molecular Genetics“, and the global citizenship project affectionately called Terry. Science literacy, high school outreach, science communication – all in the offer letter for my dream job. I start July 1st!

Related to triathlon, it will be interesting for me to balance the energy spent on this new job with the build up of my IronMan training hours this summer. Balance will be the key.
