Sunday Ride

I didn't post yesterday. Sunday I rode 2:00 w/ 4 x 15 min @ threshold. Heart rate wouldn't respond. I was either fatigued from Saturday or lazy. Either way, I was a little slow, but I was reminded of something. My heart rate didn't vary much, but two of my intervals were 1.5 mph faster on average. The two where I stayed in aero position. Over the course of any race, this is a huge difference. So get comfortable in aero position!!!!

No time today. 26 min run...I mean jog!

Stay cool!!

Fish, Goats, and Horses

Wilder went to the farm!

Bike/Run Brick at San Felasco

Mt Biked 1:45 on single track at San Felasco near Gainesville, fl. Bunny hopped one large snake and had a great horned owl fly across the trail. Hopped off and ran 2 x 1 mile. The 1st @ 5:28 and second at 5:31. Need more mileage, but I'll take what I can get!

Drive

Today's workout was a drive to Gainesville with the family. Wilder kicked and screamed, but finally fell asleep around 10:00. I expect she'll be up every two hours. Oh the picture is not from today. No nap today!

Bike

4 x 10 min @ threshold w/ 2 min warm up and cool down. Total running clock 53 min. leaving enough time to take Wilder to the pool!

Run/Swim

8 x 90 sec repeats around school playground. A few after school kids cheering me on! Went to pool after dinner and cramped up. Had to cut an already short workout even shorter. Hope my coach isn't too upset!

Training Update

46 min easy run. No intervals just running, but I did make the concoction pictured and I ate it! Hot corn bread, with ice cream, covered with real maple syrup from my parents sugar bush on N. Michigan.

Today's Workout

Bike- 4 x 15 min @ threshold

Ever feel like you were in the middle of something like this?

Xterra Richmond

This is the first race I have signed up for since last July. I have been super busy teaching and coaching. It's time to start getting serious again. Not sure if two months is enough time, but I will give it a shot.
