Trainer ride tonight. Riding with my BIL. If this works out, I will be riding with him every Thursday.

Went to my BIL's house and rode on my trainer. Good workout. The schedule called for 1 hour at a HR between 121 - 131 all over 85 rpm (53/17-53/15) then 10 min on treadmill at HR between 132-142.

I had a good time and my BIL was happy to have someone to workout with.

My MAF test was supposed to be yesterday, but I had to do it today.

Warm up: 1 mile (11:29) avg HR 126

3 mile test at HR 152 (31:09)

• Mile 1 (9:45:00) HR 151
• Mile 2 (10:33:62) HR 152
• Mile 3 (10:51:36) HR 153

Cool down (walking and stretching 14:31:65) HR 115

I was surprised by this test. I thought I would have to work harder to get to 152, then I didn't expect to have to slow down to keep that HR. I guess I'm in worse shape than I thought :)

Swim:

No swim tonight. The new Master's coach didn't show up :(

Easy spin since I didn't get in my run today. I'm taking tomorrow off from work and I am going to get in all of my workouts. I really hate starting out like this

On Friday I am tutoring a HS senior in physics. Holy crap! I haven't had physics in 20 years. I hope she doesn't fail because of me :(

First day of IM training today! Swim tonight

No swim tonight. The lap pool is closed for the week. There is a new Master's swim team at my pool AND if you swim with them, you can swim in the interactive pool this week (smart marketing ploy). So I will swim with them on Wednesday :)

Bike:

Easy ride on the trainer before the kids went to sleep.

Bike:

On trainer. 1:00 at EA (HR 120-131) at cadence above 85. Another good workout. I haven't even started training yet and this weekend I have had some of the best / hardest workouts in years. I feel really confident about next season.
