Well I feel better today, the legs are still very tired so I am going to shorten my hill workout from 10 hills to 8 (maybe less).  I am not looking forward to this one (it is 85 and humid out right now Cry) but I will do it and be stronger when I am done.

I didn't even come close to the 2000TT that was in the plan. I am carrying a lot of fatuige so I called it early.

Bike
  • 32m
  • 6.00 miles
  • -----

Because I am trashed today, I just road on the mountain bike with my daughter in the trailer. Road around town and enjoyed the nice evening air.

Hopefully by taking it easy today, I will be able to hit my hill workout hard tomorrow and get recovered for my race on saturday.

Run

This was done as run a mile walk 20-30 seconds(this is what I plan to do for the IM marathon). I could have pushed the pace a little harder, but I have a race on Saturday so I want to have something to go with that day.

Bike

  • 34.20 miles
  • 20.49 Mi/hr

Okay, so I was flying today! I felt great on the ride. The wind was fairly calm (5-10mph) and most of it cross wind. I did this as a brick and learned a good nutrition lesson. On the ride I had 1 bottle of Gatoraid G2, 1 bottle of water and 1 hammer gel. See the run for the problem

Run
  • 31m 10s
  • 3.64 miles
  • -----

So the plan was to run 45 minutes at intensity pace. The first mile went great and then the wheels started falling off! I was so hungry and hot. It was 81 which is hot, but not that hot. My body just wouldn't go. After mile 2 I knew I would be cutting it short.

I was a little frustrated by my run portion of my brick, but the bike was great.  I could have HTFU and done 45 minutes, but I have a tough week of training next week and a race on Saturday so I cut it short.  I need another week of good biking and then I need to start getting after the swim for a couple of weeks.

Nice ride on my B-day. wind wasn't as calm as I would have liked it (15-20mph) so I just went easy into the wind keeping my HR down and then Hammered it back with the wind.
