When I first heard about the Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon, I thought the swim portion was absolutely insane and anyone who swam it was nuts. It's funny how things can change. One of my biggest fears in life is now one of my most incredible joys. This race (especially the swim) is truly the funnest, yet most challenging triathlon's, I've ever competed in. Below is my journal on the incredible experience. This year's race is on Sunday, June 10th, 2012.

17 Days Away!!!
Race day is getting so incredible close. I can't believe it's less than three weeks away. Training has been a tad neglected over the past week due to a wedding and best man role this past week out-of-state. I kept up w/ the P90X training each day though and am hoping that will allow me to easily pick-up where I left off w/ each of the three sports before I left for the wedding. I'm still amazed with that program. Day 76 right now!!
It's time to crank 'er up big this week w/ various blocks inside (gym) and outside. The first plunge into Lake Washington happens this weekend. My guess is that it's probably about 48 degrees, which will be about 6 degrees cooler than SFO Bay, so that will be very REFRESHING!! :)
Feel free to share how your training is going, if any of you are crank'n 'er up for this awesome race!!
