Sunday: I got a big fat zero. That is what Dungan calls it. I was hungover, and pretty useless and did absolutely nothing. (it was my long run day.) I should get bonus points though for attending the Springfield Tri Club social.
Monday: I had to make up for it. I headed to the pool at lunch and did 2000 yards. 500, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500. After work, Jason wanted to go ride, but I couldn’t make it right away. I headed out for a long run 10 miles or so at dusk.
Tuesday: Eric calls at 10 til noon saying they are still running at the track, if I had any doubts. I didn’t go. Shouldn’t all you marathoners be tapering? 20+ mile per hour winds. I headed out west on the tt bike and flipped at the t-bone. 24 miles.
Wednesday: Same swim workout as monday. Pretty creative huh?
Thursday: Lunch time run on the treadmill. It poured out all day. I decided to do a mile warm up then do 3 mile repeats. The first I ran at a 7:00 pace, 400 recovery. Second at a 6:30 pace, 400 recovery. Third and final at a 6:00 pace. This was much tougher than running at the track. I felt pretty weezey afterward. Then did a 800 cool down, and felt much better.
Friday? Lunch time swim! I need to figure out what I am going to do.
Saturday? Ride
Sunday? Masters swim, check up on the Chicago Marathon… Good Luck Marathoners!
