I was born in Lima Peru and have lived in Utah since I was 3.

I'm open to all sports but running helps me relax and just think, as does biking and swimming. I'm currently a freshman at the University of Utah.

Foolishly tried to brave to brave the weather when the sun came out, and I even forgot gloves. Either way I managed not to get frostbite but do have a little cough. It was easy paced and I felt good the entire run. Even though it was way cold it's always easier to brave it when running with others and not by yourself.

Came down hard with the flu. Took an hour in the hot tub and another in the sauna for it to go away on top two bowls of chicken noodle soup. Got a bike sprints workout in too.

A nice easy run with a 5 minute T-pace run followed by a 2-3 minute e-pace rest, repeated it three times in row during the middle of the run. Did a little bit of lifting after.

Matched the distance I will be doing tomorrow on the bike. Tomorrow is the first Triathlon of the year for me, an indoor 300 yard, 5 mile bike and 2 mile run. Shouldn't be too hard and I want to do good to redeem myself from the last indoor triathlon I did. Did an easy 1 on the treadmill before I ran out of time and had to go home.

It's great to be back in the triathlon scene. It was a short, about half a sprint triathlon and I felt balanced on all sides. I registered late so I was put in the last heat. I was about third in my heat out of the pool, which has never really been my strength but it's a getting closer. After the swim we had to quickly dry off and run about 300 meters outside from the HPER building to the Nelson Fieldhouse, probably the fastest I've ran heading towards the Fieldhouse. On the bike some people had a two minute advantage on me but I was the first one out of the bike. The bike was on stationary bikes in the middle of the indoor track. The resistance didn't help you go faster so everyone had it on the easiest resistance, thus I averaged about 40 mph the whole five miles, talk about inflation. The run was two miles on the indoor track at the nelson Fieldhouse and I was familiar with it, having done it this past Saturday. A little side ache on the run but nothing that really made much of a difference. I finished third behind Paul and some other guy. They were in other heats and just owned me in the transitions and swim. I plan to improve on both of those, one being an easy fix, the other I'll have to spend some time on. Results haven't been posted yet but I was somewhere in the 27s and as far as I know, third.
