Another summer flying by

Well I am way behind on posting this update, but 12-16 hour training weeks, plus a full-time job, a little bit of traveling, and general life stuff (why is there always so much laundry?!) doesn't leave much time for blogging.  So, for the four or five of you who actually read this, here's what I've been up to for the last few months... 

May
Swim - 17.9 miles
Bike - 361 miles
Run - 76 miles
Total time - 42:37:42
Total distance - 456 miles

June (vs 2015 140.6 training)
Swim - 22 miles (12)
Bike - 593 miles (382)
Run - 70 miles (101)
Total time - 55:29:10
Total distance - 685 miles

July (vs 2016 70.3 training)
Swim - 21.7 miles (8.9)
Bike - 690 miles (293)
Run - 114 miles (117)
Total time - 65:31:20
Total distance - 826 miles

I realized on June 30 that I only needed 8 more miles to get to 600, and actually considered just doing easy loops around the neighborhood, but 592 was a month-PB for me, so I decided I'd just wait to see what happened in July.  With even more miles, including a two weekends with back-to-back metric centuries, I not only broke 600, but came pretty darn close to 700!
