750yd swim, 15mi bike, 5k
Raced good. The swim felt a little long, but I did have to swim around people. The bike went well, it was a little hilly. I averaged a little over 19.5mph. The run was an out and back with a slight incline the first half and a decline the second. This made my second half real nice. Most important I had fun. Last year I did the half iron distance and the 100 deg temps made the run miserable. In the sprint, the race was over before it got too hot. |

| Went to a track workout. Ran 1.5mi there and back, did 1200m warm up on the track 6 x 400m and 1 x 800m. It was very hot 96deg. I had no energy to run fast. Summer is miserable in middle GA and it will get hotter. |

The run was pretty humid. I was very sweaty by the end. Felt good though, fell into a nice pace and waited until the last 1/4mi to sprint.
Played a soccer game. We had a sub this game, so I played for probably 60min. We won our game and I scored a goal. Some of my skills are starting to return. |

| Worked out on the elliptical machine for 50min between level 10 and 16 after a 5min warmup. Mostly stayed at 12. I was sweating quite a bit. With this heat I may have to start using the elliptical more because I really dislike treadmills. I also don't have any races scheduled until August, so perfect time to donate some blood and switch up my cardio workouts. | | Add Comment |

| Did a track workout. Jogged 1.5mi to the track, did 800m straights and turns, 8x400 between 1:42 and 1:47. Jogged 0.5mi barefoot on the grass around the track, ran back home 1.5mi. Temp was around 96deg. I felt pretty dehydrated even after drinking water all day. |

| Ran on a single track mountain bike trail, L H Thompson. This was a pretty tough trail, it would be even harder to mountain bike, but it was fun. I will definitely run the trail more often since its close to my work. |

This was just another monthly base 5k, but it was nice to have it early in the day. I was 1st female by a long shot. Great for speed work since the races are free and I get workout time to run the race, so technically I get paid to run. Awesome!
Donated some blood later in the day, so I'll take the next couple of days off from working out. |

600yd swim, 14.3mi bike, 5k
My swim was super slow, but I still managed to pass 6 people in my age group between the bike and the run to come in 2nd. I even out sprinted someone in my age group in the final up hill stretch to the finish line. The 5k was super hilly, the hills never ended and were pretty steep. I averaged 19.2mph on the hilly bike course. It was a tough sprint, but I went with a big group, so it was a lot of fun. |

47mi bike ride. Was riding with a group when I split off with two other people to do around 30mi and we ended up missing a turn and had to ask for directions. The group doing 50 beat us back by a couple of minutes. It was good though, I needed to do a long ride and we stopped a couple times at stores for powerade.
Played a soccer game at night and the game was cancelled w/ 10min to go due to lightning in the area. We were winning 8-2 and I got my goal, so I was happy. It would have been nice to see if we could get a few more since goals determine ranking in our league. | | Add Comment |
