Wow, last few months have been crazy. In and out of physical therapy...which really hasn't been a bad thing. Made me stronger in the hips and glutes...which is great. I'm into my last two high volume weeks then a taper week, then race day. I can't wait. Little nervous. Haven't done too many bike to run bricks...but at least I know how it feels.
Today I ran a 15 min w/u followed by 4x1mile with 2:15-3:00 active rest then a 22 min c/d. Run went well. Felt good to run a little faster again. With the hip and IT I haven't been running hard....I've just been making the distance. So I ran 6:45, 6:52, 6:33, 6:48. The second and fourth were at a slight uphill.
Then I drove to the gym and was in the pool by 0640 hours and swam 5x500=2500. Felt tired first 500, but settled in after that. Didn't refule during workout, so I was starving when I finished and headed to the snack bar for a Ying/Yang shake with protein and extra coconut. YUM! |
