I will probably repeat this every week, but it is a common thread for me to be successful. It is great to have training partners and a support network. If you haven’t read the comment posted on Day 16 by Duce, you should.
After a wonderful day with the family I was able to get in 30 minutes on the bike. I kept it really light only spending 10 minutes in the 18 mph gearing. Most if the time I was in the 16 mph rings. My left knee feels like there is a gentle pulling from the inside of my quad, but after the 30 minutes it felt really solid. I don’t feel like this is anything serious, but it might be an early sign of a little overtraining at this point in the season (and considering my starting fitness level). So I will be easing it back to feeling normal by taking shorter duration workouts and spend the extra time building some core strength (especially after reading the sage advice posted on Day 16).
Perhaps I will adjust my goals for the week and see if I can’t hit the pool at least one time during the week so I will be ready for the weekend.
- 1 pool workout (12-18 laps = 0.3-0.5 miles)
- 2 hours of bike time
- 2 hours of core training time
- 6 miles of running
I need to stay balanced, my race is 9 months away and I need to stay healthy in order to train up for the event.
