2010 - Will the heart let me train?

Medium-long.
Stayed in the neighborhood. 3 of the big loops (3 miles each), 3 of the regular loops (1.7 miles each). As usual, pushed the last lap for an 11:09 (6:34 pace).
Really not that great of a run. Had to work to keep the pace and motivation going. Cold and really windy.
Once again, I f'ing hate the cold .....

39 x 15 @ 100 level 3
Usual spin. Half aero, half not. Seemed a little hard too.
Recovery brick.
Easy big loop around the neighborhood. Leisurely run.

No workout again because of having to get to the court early and drop the kids off.
Court was fine. We opted to grant the temporary mechanic's lien with the placement of it "stayed" until arbitration is done (which is what the contract said they were supposed to do first anyways). Still a pain in the azz to deal with, and still cost us a few hours in lawyer fees, but that part is over. Now we have to wait for the arbitration hearing in a few months. Joy ..........

Oh well ..... yesterday ended up being a rest day from tri training. But I still got a bit of a workout from the shoveling.
Didn't run this morning because all my usual roads are still ice sheets basically. Normally have a trainer ride tonight, but there is a father/son thing at the oldest's school tonight that we will probably be going to which doesn't end until 8-ish. We'll see how that goes. Possibly two rest days in a row??
And then tomorrow is the court hearing about the house ....... so no swim in the morning unless I go REALLY early. Could mean 3 rest days in a row. Good thing this is a "recovery" week ...........

Couldn't get to the pool. I got the car out of the driveway, but now it's stuck on the street. So I'm stuck at home today. Will try and get a decent trainer ride in. Chances are I won't be able to run tomorrow either (this will be the first running workout I'll have not been able to do in almost a year), so probably another cycling day.
Snow (really ice) shoveled for two hours. Not going to ride.

Lactate Threshold
3 mile warm up - 8:05 pace.
7 miles tempo (48:27, 6:55 pace, 175 avg HR).
2 mile warm-down - 8:31 pace.
Hard run. Really didn't feel good on the tempo portion. Since I did the run in the neighborhood I used the 3 mile loop. So on the tempo portion, miles 1, 4 and 7 are pretty much up, so they hurt a bit (and is where I hit my peak HR of 184 on the last lap).
Only good thing is that it was a balmy 38 out this morning! ;-P
