99 Days to Ironman

I was talking to a friend this morning and he asked me what I am doing this weekend. I quickly replied "Nothing". However, I remembered that I am doing my first Century ride (100 miles) with my coach on Sunday...so, I guess that's "something". I've never ridden more than 76 miles, so this could be a challenge. We'll be starting in Chandler and making a big southward loop down through Casa Grande....should be a good one...I'll tell ya about it.
Training overall has been going okay, just okay. I don't know, I just really haven't dedicated myself to it. The other night I was scheduled for a 12 mile run. It was 9pm, getting cold outside, and I had a lot on my mind. I wanted so badly to blow off this workout, but somehow found the energy to get my butt out of my chair and out the door. Something happened when I got out the door...maybe it was the power of Kelley Clarkson rockin in my ears..kidding...kinda...not really, but I felt instantly charged and managed to knock out 8.5 miles before my toes went numb.
My swim is okay...most of my workouts are supposed to be around 2200 meters, broken up into sets. In my last two sessions I managed to knock out a 750, and 1000 last night...I got bored and unmotivated, and ended up getting in the hot tub and sat there with a woman who was so enormous that I felt the water rise around me when she got in.
