Escape Continued

As the Escape from Alcatraz triathlon came to an end last weekend, I set out on my last longish run prior to CDA. Hoping to see some friends coming in, I set out on along the run course, running against the run traffic.

While running along I ran past Sarah Reinertsen, a challenged athlete that many know from Ironman coverage and from seeing her at events. I am a fan, as she is not only inspirational, but also because I am envious of the fact that she has been on the Amazing Race, one of my favorite television shows. I shouted a bit of encouragement as I ran by.

I ran the Alcatraz course plus some at a very slow "tapering" pace and was laughing when I returned home. My two hour run seemed short. I am hoping that this means I am ready for Ironman.
