Bike
  • 1h 09m 42s
  • 23.30 miles
  • 20.06 Mi/hr

Felt strong the entire ride. Pretty quiet at the picnic loop. Wanted to go faster but kept pace with riding partner w/ a couple of laps averaging 23-24mph, followed by letting partner catch up.

Run
  • 44m 21s
  • 5.00 miles
  • 08m 52s /Mi

Slow and steady even pace run following the bike. Started out with a tight L achilles that loosened up after a half-mile. I think I could have stepped it up a bit but glad I took it slow. Hamstrings are a little sore from yesterday's lunges, DB deadlifts and bodyweight squats.

Strength
  • 1h 00m

Upper body workout. No legs

Worked out with Sam.  Glad to get him back in the gym to see what he's been missing.  Good to have a lifting partner again, even if it's just for the day.  Looking forward to having tomorrow off . . . is that possible? 

Plan to do a long run on Sunday, 1.5 hour swim on Monday and medium-pace run/weights on Tuesday, then 5 days off before blood tests.
