I woke up this morning to my long run calling my name. The weather was perfect. I cherish my long runs. I did a reverse of my 10 mile 2 weeks ago. I started running through the park first, up to fit club, through the neighbor hoods, and back home via Washington. I didn’t feel bad, but my legs did feel tired. I’m sure it’s from Saturdays race. I made it home, finishing with 12 miles, despite 3 different cars trying to run me over today.
After a recovery shake, I took my bike to R&M and said farewell. The hot to trot race is in less than 2 weeks and I needed to have my bike shipped. I get nervous before any race, especially a triathlon. I need to make sure I have everything I might need. So I can just imagine how freaked out I am going to be a race 14 hours away. I think shipping it today will ensure enough time for it to arrive in Alabama. The guys at R&M are adding a special touch to the bike before they ship it too!
1600, we head to swimming lessons for son #2. I read my new issue of runners world during the lessons. I think Brady’s stroke is going to be the back stroke. He’s a natural.
After swimming I went to FC south and did powerzone. Thankfully Stephanie didn’t do too much lower body, I don’t think my legs could have taken it. Some tofu and zucchini and I’m on the couch.
