Well, July was certainly a month of highs and lows. \u00a0Highs include an amazing race at Rev3 Williamsburg. \u00a0Huge PR, even with the ridiculous water and the foot injury. \u00a0Lows include slicing open my foot and screwing up my training for the month, then struggling to get back on track. \u00a0I’m fighting with some tightness in my right hip and quad, likely from walking stupid thanks to cutting open my left foot, so that’s meant a lot of time with the foam roller and the massage ball this month.<\/p>\n

I wouldn’t have been surprised if July was my lowest training month of the year. \u00a0It’s not – that was February. \u00a0But I didn’t beat it by much. \u00a0Also February has 3 fewer days. \u00a0It should theoretically be my lowest training month.<\/p>\n

So you know, having a low training month mid-season probably isn’t the best idea. \u00a0I am racing next week and it’s a challenging course, so I don’t have any real goals other than to just race strong. \u00a0It’s going to be a comparatively slow race, and the low training isn’t going to be a huge help.<\/p>\n

July Totals<\/strong>
\nSwim: 4.3 miles
\nBike: 204 miles
\nRun: 35 miles<\/p>\n

So yeah, it’s not terrible, but that run number is way lower than it should be. \u00a0Thank goodness I’m only racing olympics this year, because I think even the 10k is going to be a push. \u00a0Now that my foot has healed, I really don’t have any excuse to not get myself back on track.<\/p>\n

2017 Totals<\/strong>
\nSwim: 33 miles
\nBike: 1339 miles
\nRun: 316 miles<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
