This was nice and fast for me. I am pleased. I am sorry the swim was canceled although 50 degree water was going to be shocking.

5k of the race. This is the fastest I have ever done a 5k. I am pleased.

Average speed sucked due to hills, but power was nice as was HR. I put out a good effort. Interesting how the power numbers are better on the road compared to the trainer. I am going to have to figure out my power goals for Eagleman soon.

Hells Yeah!!! Fastest 5K to date! Way to top off this day. 3rd run of the day since I had the duathlon earlier. This was the biggest run week I have ever had, and the most volume of my training for the HIM. I just missed the 30 min 5k, but it now seems in reach. I warmed up for 1 mile and then did 1.5 miles 9:30 pace. I was gonna go slower for tha last .5, but it was still fast. I am very pleased.
This has been a crazy week. I have been really good at getting my workouts in. It is also my most volume run week of my training. I just did the last run of the week and I feel stronger than ever running. That's not to say that there is no pain. My knees and shins hurt. That femur pain is totally thing of the past now.
I have to find time to do my long bike tomorrow and swim. Since I biked in the race today, I may cut it short. Yeajackson and I planned on doing a nice ride in the country after the race, but the weather was blah, so we bagged it.

My workouts lately have been solid. I will never be really fast at anything. Overall, my biking is still weaker than last year, but I feel much more well rounded than I did at this point last year. My HIM last year was a week later in June and my longest run was in February. Then I was injured and backed off running. My longest run after that was the 10k at St. A's in April. My pace at Patriot was 13:34 for the 1/2 mary. I am doing much better. My right knee hurts a little, but I can deal.
Tomorrow is a much deserved off day and then I have a sprint on Saturday. I think the water temp is about 51 degrees. Brrrrrrrrrr. Makes me want to do the duathlon instead.

Ok run during work since it is such a light day. Back hurts from yesterday's surgery. I was totally contorted for that. I am sure that impacted how I did. I didn't want to go to hard today since I have a long run tomorrow.

I was not into doing this bike. I didn't want to just do a spinervals. Randy is good at giving me intervals, so I did a bunch of different intervals while watching The Rel Housewives of OC.

I got done just in time to get my kids. I was not feeling great. My right shin and both knees are not please with me, but I have a month left of hard training and I hope things hold up.

Spinervals 9.0 Have Mercy. OMG my legs are toast. My knees hurt too. I iced those when I finished stretching. I am definitely weaker than last year on the bike. I hope I can build some back. Lots of time with higher HR here. Pushing the ceiling up.

not the most inspired swim. I was not very motivated today. I wanted to sleep.
Did Coggins Sweet Spot workout while watching TV. I was not really up for this. For the 2x20 min sets I was supposed be at 90% of FTP and I couldn't really do that. It just was not happening. This was more "time in the saddle."
