9:1 run/ walk at low MAF

I feel better today than yesterday afternoon. I finally stopped sneezing.
Tough run. Mentally and a little physically. I am stoked that even with a 9:1 ratio, I was still sub 10 minute mile. The run was a 1 mile uphill, 1 mile downhill repeat.

Continuous at the pool with a wetsuit.

Good ride. My coworker showed up, and he is always saying that I just loaf around the lake. I knew he was trying to catch me, so I didn't let him. He looked beat when I finally left the lake

Swim at the pool. It was supposed to be an open water swim before the ride, but there is no way to do this early enough and still finish the ride in any decent amount of time, so I went to the pool.  Tried on the wetsuit and just swam easy. For the last 10 minutes, I practiced a 180 degree turn in the lane (similar to swimming around the buoys at the lake in Virginia.

I think a Carne Asada Burrito + rice and beans is the perfect 4:1 carb to protein recovery food...at least that is what I just told myself

After I swam, I couldn't stop sneezing. I took a butt load of Nyquil, but couldn't fall asleep or stop the snot. I feel like crap.

20 minutes at MAF (141-151)

Rode at the lake. I am just now starting to remember where every crack and bump in the rode is. Me and this 3 mile stretch of road will see plenty of each other over the summer.
Lots of cyclists out there today. Everybody seemed to want to race (which explains the speed). I didn't feel like I was racing them, but apparently I was going faster than I thought. Testosterone in action, I guess.
Run: 10 minutes out and back. Just a guess on distance as I didn't pay attention to the mile markers. I think I went further than 1.1 miles, but who's counting?
