I actually have no idea how far I ran today. The Suwanee Greenway was still flooded, although the creek was mostly back within its banks. There weren't very many folks out there, but I guess they got the memo. I'm fortunate to not have had my home affected by all the rain and flooding of the past week. My biggest problem is a yard that has gone 3 weeks without mowing now. Hopefully they neighbors understand but if not - to heck with them.

Training starts back in earnest tomorrow. I can't wait! I need to get in the pool for breakfast and do an easy 3.5 mile run at lunch. For now, I need to turn off the football game and go to sleep!

I have been quite tired - borderline exhausted, the past several days since Ironman Wisconsin. Yesterday my muscles and bones felt good, but I have a general level of mental and physical fatigue. It's kind of hard to explain. My resting heart rate is back down to around 54. I had to jog a little to get out of a torrential downpour yesterday. But when I lay down I sleep like the dead for 10 hours and have no desire to get up.

A race report is forthcoming. I might be able to piece it together this weekend. In all, I had a FABULOUS time and am proud to be a 2x Ironman. Now if I can just make it through the next 4 hours of meetings without putting my head down on my desk.
