you can do it and if you like i can help you with your training schedule. The most important thing you will have to do is practice your transitions and get off that bike and go right into the run. you will also need to practice coming out of the water going to the bike and get on and ride. I be willing to help guide or answer questions. Open water swim is important and learn to draft in the water. just some hints
My half is on the 16th. My goal is "don't die." :)

So, I have a foot/ankle sprain (fairly mild) after an Olympic snatch gone wrong and a 15 kilo bar smashing my left foot after I fell. Truly thankful nothing broke because the fencing season started 9/1 in earnest. Saw the doc and we put together a plan to rehab the ankle enough so I could fence on Saturday 9/8 at my first event for the season. So my workouts have been modified and when I'm not at the gym or at the fencing club, I'm in a boot and if I at the gym or club, I'm in a McDavid brace, but I can move!
Monday - ab and core at gym (fencing club close due to holiday)
Tuesday - modified Crossfit class -
Wednesday - lesson and open fencing 2.5 hours being very careful
Thursday - recovery
Friday - Pilates and modified Crossfit class that should have been Thursday but was moved so people could watch the Eagles home opener.
Saturday - FIRST FENCING EVENT OF THE SEASON !!!!!!!
Sunday - recovery and abs/core
Hope everyone has a great week.
Keep on losing!

LOl thanks for thinking of me. Think of me on the 16. I was out with my trainer who trains me for free. There is no way I would be able to afford her yesterday. We did a 30 minute run in the heat and I told her that depends on how this race goes if i will do another half. I had trouble last year but finished it but if i struggle like I did last year than I need to ask myself is this distance for me or just to much. I am hoping i will be stronger than last year. If you ever want to do a triathlon start with a tri tri and i would be very willing to help you from here to train for it. You could do it.You don't need all the fancy stuff to do tri tri believe me. You are doing great with your work out. Make sure you are taking rest days. Please. I learned the hard way and those rest days are so important. When is your race again. Any questions just ask
Last week was basically a wash due to travel and general weirdness. And, in bad news, I found out that my Friday Pilates class won't be starting up this week as scheduled (it's a credit class, so only runs during the Fall and Spring terms). But, in good news, I was looking at other Pilates options and asked my instructor if she thought the intermediate Pilates class she teaches on Mondays would be appropriate for me and she said yes! So that's sort of super exciting. It means I've leveled up my Pilates skill :D
Because of last week's wonkiness, though, here's this week's schedule. Today's run was supposed to happen last Thursday so I'm glad I was able to get it in before starting to taper for my half marathon!
M - nothing
Tu - running (11mi), yoga stretching
W - pilates class, yoga class
Th - running (5mi), yoga stretching
F - zenga class
Sa - running (3.1mi - parkrun race), stretching
Su - yoga at home
