- 01m 52s /100 yards
5 x 300 (5:54, 5:40, 5:36, 5:33, 5:37)
5 x 200 (3:43, 3:42, 3:38, 3:39, 3:42)
Probably my best swim ever. Just felt good in the water and stayed smooth. Pace on the first 100 of each interval was in the high 1:40's. Finally had "one of those days" on the good scale!!
Getting my windshield replaced today, so I have to sit by the phone waiting for the mobile repair truck to call. So I'm home from work until that happens, and no workout yet. Scheduled swim, but not sure what the mid-day times are, need to check online for them. If not then I'll squeeze some sort of ride in.
Windshield is fixed. In the office right now. Going to search about pool times now.

Out and back to I-95. Finally had a decent run! Felt good the whole way and concentrated on smooth cadence and keeping my head in the run.

Intervals.
15 minute warm up spinning 39x16 @ 100+ on level 3.
1 minute 53x16 at 100 (about 26.0 mph or so).
1 minute easy spin in 39x16.
2 minutes 53x16.
2 minutes 39x16.
3 minutes on. 3 off. 4 on, 4 off, 5 on.
Short cool down until it hit 15 miles on the odometer.
First bike interval workout I've done since last year, so I didn't go down the ladder like I usually would, plus it's late and I need to get to bed so I can do my 10 miles GA tomorrow morning. ;-P
Baby sitter couldn't take the oldest to school, so it's my job. No swim today. May end up making it a - gasp - rest day. Or may ride after work on trainer since I didn't get to last night (had to work late, then come home and make dinner and get kids to bed).
And my Boston jacket did show up yesterday. It's frickin' sweet! Even my wife likes it! I'm probably going to have her embroider my finishing time and name on it after the race. She has a pretty nice embroidery sewing machine that she got to do quilting and is getting really good with it.

VO2 Max.
w/u - 2.6 miles to school track
4 x 1,200 @ 5k pace with 400 recovery. Splits were not great at all with a 4:35, 4:45, 4:47, 4:48. But the heart rate was through the roof.
c/d - 2.6 mile recovery back to house. Took about a mile and a half before the heart rate was back into the 150's.
Today's run was more of a mental challenge than most. Really had to push myself to actually do the intervals.
Unless I'm getting my orders mixed up, it looks like UPS will be delivering my Boston jacket today. Can't wait to see it! It was $90, but this is a once in a lifetime thing for me, so I'm splurging! ;)
Also ordered my Dura Ace cranks, bottom bracket and front der. for the Felt yesterday. Ended up going with 177.5's and not 180's for length. We'll see how that works out. Damn they were pricey ..... even at wholesale cost they were $293!!

- 37m 10s
- 1800.00 yards
- 02m 04s /100 yards
1 x 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 easy.
3 x 100 moderate.
Probably dehydrated a bit which is why the weight is down and the body fat percentage is up. Pretty sore/tired this morning even though I took a nice long bath last night.
BOSTON 4 WEEKS FROM TODAY! Last "heavy" week and on to taper town!

Scheduled to do 17 today, but did laps in the neighborhood, so just did 6 of the big loop (3 miles) and rounded the day up to 18.
Run kinda sucked. No motivation (it was cold and really windy even though it was sunny), and started to really tire towards the end. Almost bagged it at both the 12 and 15 mile point. Last lap was pretty slow (about 7:50 pace).
Day two of her seminar today. Watching the little bugs again. We had fun going to the Maryland Science Center downtown, but today is all about laundry and cleaning up the house. Joy ......
Hooray for Kimi Raikonnen and his first win for Ferrari last night!! Good race for them even though Massa had to start from P22. He still got up to 6th, which isn't bad.

Processing your request, please wait...
Busy day! Lots of things to do to get ready for my friend and his family coming over. Plus we had to drop off Mir's Pilot to get a trailer hitch put on early, so no morning workout. Plan is to try and get a trainer ride after they leave this afternoon.
Ended up making it a dinner, so no workout. Had a good time though.
