A little off plan

I shouldn’t be surprised, but I’ve fallen a little off plan this past week.  What did I expect, with rehearsals three nights this week?  Of course, I didn’t plan for Thursday’s swim to get cancelled due to lightning, but what are you going to do?

I don’t think this hurts my training plan all that much.  But I still need to recommit and make sure that I’m sticking to my plan as much as I possibly can.  My triathlon is in less than 30 days.  It’s “just” a super sprint, but for me, that’s still a lot.

I need to get more comfortable on my bike.  I need to continue to cover 10+ miles every single time I take my bike out.

I need to practice transitions.  This will be key in making sure I have a good race.

I need to keep up with my running.  After all, the weekend before the tri, I’m doing a back-to-back 8K and half.  No, this is not the smartest thing I’ve done, but it’s a race I refuse to miss, and I just plan to cover the distance at whatever pace feels good.  If I find myself with a 4 hour half on the books, so be it.

So those are the next steps.  It won’t be too bad.  But man, this tri has sure crept up on me!
