Have had a couple great workouts since my last post. Good to the point where it makes you nervous.
To start with yesterday I had a great swim in the morning – a broken Ironman distance (3×150 EZ + 2×250,2×500,1×750, 1×1000). The main set was fast – I got through 1500 meters in 19 minutes swimming time, and finished up …
Read MoreI’ve had some thoughts lately rolling around my head – mainly focused around seeking out “sponsors” to help support my athletics. Why? It’s expensive doing triathlons.
There are a couple of items I’d really like to get to help my triathlon racing and training advance – hopefully to the next level. The two key things …
Read More- Sorry for the delay in the updates, between being sick, juggling life, and training keeping my website up to date. On the sicky front my cold has moved from a normal cold to being all in my sinuses. From the viewpoint of impacting my training – there’s hardly any impact any more. My sinuses tend to drain after I get …
Read More Well after spending most of last week successfully avoiding getting sick (while having a great week of training), I got nailed yesterday. I’m not sure if I got it because it was just strong then me, or if my race + super long weekend is what did me in…
Regardless, I got sick and as a result my swim today, and my 20 …
Read More- Well it’s been a few days since I’ve posted an update. Things have been good to great on the training front, although I’m still fighting to keep the cold at bay. My bike ride yesterday (more on that in a bit), I think opened me up to it a little more. So I’m definately feeling it a little today, will try and get some …
Read More - It’s been a tough week so far. Being only the third day of the week, I’ve had some real highs and some real lows. The highs being my run last night – 21 miles in ~2:37; that’s moving. The lows – being the huge amount of fatigue that I’m carrying from last week and earlier in the season is catching up with me. Normally …
Read More Was supposed to do a swim this morning, but I decided to sleep in this morning, and do the swim tomorrow. I was extremely worn down last night – so I just needed to get some rest. I think it will make for a better run tonight.
Yesterday I had a great swim 4,900 SCM – considering my workout on Sunday – I was really …
Read MoreThe week ending March 4th, was a awesome week for me training wise. It topped the scales at a little over 25 hours total volume. Here’s how it broke down:
- Swim: 13,850 SCM – 4:20
- Bike: 237 miles – 13:20 (all on the trainer)
- Run: 40 miles – 5:32 …
Read More- Had a decent workout last night, and a great swim this morning. Last night I did 2 hours on the trainer followed by a 30 minute run. Both were at a very easy pace – which was good because I had a very hard time elevating my HR, I think I was still pretty tired from Tuesday nights run. I also came pretty close to …
Read More - Well it’s crunch time – not for training, but for my website, since tomorrow is a new month, the blog archive feature will kick in, and all of these posts will disappear from the main page and Feburary, 2007 will show up in the archive box to the right – that’s all well and good except I don’t have the archive display …
