I got in both workouts I wanted to do today. Yeehaw! It feels great!
At 1:30pm, I went for my first run with Paul in his chariot. It works great, but the front tire needs a bit of realignment. Not sure of how far the run was, and I kept it easy as the first go with Paul. I ran for 21:30 with an average heart rate of 154. A nice run, and the weather stayed nice til about an hour after I got back.
I was hoping to bike outside today, since I missed it yesterday on such a beautiful day because I was lazy. The weather turned in late afternoon, so I did a bike on the trainer. I did the usual spinerval 28, and it felt great. I haven't lost any power, and maybe just a bit of endurance, after two weeks of no biking whatsoever. I'm certainly surprised.
Now let's see if I can keep it up all week. Tomorrow is a swim/lift in the morning and run at lunch.
Thursday "should" be another run in the chariot (if the weather cooperates, which is a BIG IF), and the muscular endurance bike workout that is now two sets: 1x35mins and 1x30mins with a two minute break. I'm interested in what gear I end up in.
I'm a family guy who is addicted to swim/bike/run and anything to do with getting out into the backcountry wilderness areas. This blog focuses on the swim, bike, run and other various aspects of my attempts to finish in the top ten percent of my age group in whatever race I do. It used to be all about finishing the legs of an Olympic Distance triathlon: swim in 20 minutes, bike in 60 minutes, and run in 40 minutes. Now, it's more about training well and finishing well.
