End of week 10

"See I can do all three sports at the same time!" LOL....


It's done! Week 10..... Let's see, I would have to say my high light of the week was my cycling.... I am feeling stronger and stronger on the bike. I did 75 km's last Sunday and I averaged 27 kms all the way even with head winds and then this weekend we did a brick workout and road for 35km's on a hilly course and averaged 28.82 and it did not feel hard. The Vo2 max work and hill repeats are working like a charm. I am pretty excited about this.

My Swimming this week was not as good as it has been. I just don't seem to have the energy or spark I had for it last week. I think it just goes that way some times, but I have told myself that this week will be a good week for swimming and I know it will. Sunday, I'm not sure if it's all the training or if the change in temps this weekend had anything to do with it but I was so bagged that I slept in till 8:30 am which I don't do and after a good run I fell back a sleep for just over half an hour. So my swim after my nap was terrible, well not totally cause I still did 2300 meters but in 100's and 200's.

Running is still going well.. I feel strong when I run so that's good. I miss the good old days where I had fresh legs though he he.. Hey but on Wed's early mornings I have fresh legs he he but the body is not a wake yet!

Training is really going well over all and I can't wait until Sunday for our first sprint of the season. It will be our hard brick workout and I love the idea of that! "Can't wait!"

I do have one small issue right now and that is my lower back has gotten tight so I am a bit nervous of that but I am stretching and taking it easy on it by not lifting heavy things at work and around home. Hot water hitting my back feels great as well as some Advil. I am hoping it will work it's self out before the sprint. One nice thing about back pain or tightness is that it likes to be in motion....

This week is pretty heavy but we will be cutting back by Friday so we have a little taper before the sprint and then our recovery week "yea" Will be needed by then he he..
