Sprint work out

Today I decided that I want to sign up for a triathlon at the end up September. It is called the Nathan triathlon and it is at the Tempe town lake. So when I went to the gym today after dropping Keilah off at Preschool I decided to see how fast I could run a 5k. I started out by running 1.5 miles in 10 minutes and then I slowed down my pace a bit and finished 3.2 miles (5k) in 21:30. I wanted to get to 6 miles for the day so I kept running and did my 5th mile at 9.0 miles per hour and finished 6 miles total in 42:15. Not too bad, and it was a great run! I listened to my ipod the whole time.... no reading today. It's harder to read while I am doing the speed workouts because I need to focus on my performance.
After running I went downstairs and did some weight lifting. I did 4 sets of squats 12 times with only 35lbs on each side.... so 115 pounds total. I did some bench press with 10s on the bar, I did some bicep curls with a 40lb bar, and some other ab things. I used to squat so much back in high school and college so I seem so weak compared to then..... I would rather get my legs skinnier though instead of huge and muscley (sp? is that even a word?) To finish off my time at the gym I went to the pool and swam a 500 (500 meters or 20 laps). I need to do more swimming and some biking to get ready for this triathlon thing. It should be fun! I have never done one and I kind of like doing other exercise besides just running all the time. We'll see if I can train well enough on my own!!
