It wasn't so nice out again this weekend, but I was determined to get another brick in. Just rode 20km up Beach Rd & turned around. The ride was over before I knew it. The wind was out making it rather cold (I'm so happy I was wearing gloves!) but there was no battling on the bike.

And then I ran, I left my iPod at home so it was just me and my "positive thoughts" the first couple of minutes were tough just because my legs felt numb more than anything. For most of the run I thought about how I was going to feel coming last next week and thinking that the race will/might give me the confidence I need to do a 1/2 IM in November (shh, don't tell anyone). The last 10 minutes were tough because I was trying to crack an hour for 10km. It wasn't to be this time. Oh the frustration of 1:33, still I think this may actually be a PB for me!

So close to 5km in under half an hour. How frustrating, I wish I'd checked the distance!! Didn't hve much time this morning, but decided to get out there anyway. Did let HR dictate, just ran. Ooh this is my first run under 6min/kms in a looong time and my HR didn't blow out. That's exciting!

The weather man promised rain this afternoon (it's currently clear, sunny and COLD) so I thought it best to at least get a run in while its not grey & wet. Felt good to be out there as hesitant as I was.

AM: A swim will be logged, no matter how or where, I am getting in the pool. There's a risk of showers, hail and thunder, so I'll be searching for an indoor pool me thinks.
My nutritionist was really happy with my progress thus far. Things to work on include my hydration, just drinking fluids in general. Upping my iron levels and making sure I have at least 2 serves of low fat dairy if not three on some days. The reason I may have been so tired yesterday could be my hydration levels. As Jane said, even if my iron levels go up I'm not going to feel less tired if I'm dehydrated.

This run almost didn't happen, but I pushed myself out the door. I almost didn't make it home. I just felt as though I had run out of energy.

Laps of the Lake this morning. I rode until I could no longer feel my toes or fingertips. The later it got the more trucks there were to clear away the GP stands. I started to feel like small fry and happy to call it a morning.
