Good workout on the trainer in the garage. I noticed it didn't get light out until 6:45 a.m.
Sigh.

Run
  • 45m 06s
  • 4.69 miles

Perceived effort was high compared to speed. I think this was because I was hungry when I went to bed last night and I didn't eat anything this morning and drank only water during the bike and run. It was sort of an experiment. I guess there is an effect! Still a good effort.

Wow. This ironman thing is going to be hard. This run was really really difficult. I was still hot from the bike. I think the weather is going to be a big factor in my race. I did well mentally. And with keeping my HR down.

Should have been an hour. Route got screwed up AND neither of us wanted to be late. Apparently all the satellites were on the other side of Earth today. It never picked me up.
Estimate of distance.

VERY easy day on Three Creeks. It was a return to the scene of the crash for me. So more therapeutic than anything. It made riding seem fun again. I'm not scared of the path anymore.
