Last week was not a good week, workout wise.
Monday – Rest Day. I rocked this one.
Tuesday – I was scheduled for 5 miles. My calves were really tight and they just wouldn’t loosen up. After two miles, I gave up and spent about half an hour stretching and rolling. Better to lose some training and prevent injury, right?
Wednesday – Bike trainer workout. Pushed this one, and it felt great. I still have a long way to go on the bike, and I love it. There’s so much room for improvement.
Thursday – I was at the Flight 93 Memorial for a large chunk of the day, and by the time I got home, I was exhausted, physically and mentally, and collapsed into bed well before swim practice even started.
Friday/Saturday – Scheduled rest days. I felt a little guilty about this, having not worked out since Wednesday, but figured I would try to really push Sunday’s race.
Sunday – Revenge of the Penguins 10 Miler.
Not the best in terms of workouts. I’m doing what I can to stick to this week and next so that I’m fully ready for my last triathlon of the season.
