Personal:

I go to TCU and am a member of the TriFrogs team here. I just started training for triathlons in August 2010. I ran track throughout high school, but always hated long distance until this summer. Something inside me snapped and I found out that I love it! Unfortunately, I got a stress fracture due to overtraining for a half marathon I was aiming to do in December, but I should be back on my feet soon! In the meantime, I've significantly improved in the biking and swimming! Stay tuned to watch me grow!

This was a brick workout. I swam 100 yds for a warmup, did a 1400 yds until 5 minutes before cycling class, jumped out of the pool and practiced transitioning. In cycling we started with a cardio lung/leg workout and were on the bikes alternating climbing and sprinting with short rests between. Overall the swim took about 26 minutes, the cardio lasted 15 minutes, and the bike lasted 45 minutes.

I got on the elliptical this evening and did 10 miles in 61:58 with a 6:12 ppm. The resistance was about a 5, but I wanted to keep the pace quick. I got off and immediately went to weights for an hour, the usual full-body routine.

 The ankle is feeling really good! I hope the therapist lets me run again soon!

I had to make up my own cycling workout today because class was cancelled for bad weather day. I ended up using one from Spinervals. It was a 50 minute workout with 6x20 intervals of speed, grinders, and climbs. It also included a 3x4 minute tempo work.

This was my weights/ running day. Although since my orthotics still haven't come in it had to be elliptical. I only did 4 miles because I was short for time and my legs were really tired for some reason. I couldn't keep my normal cadence up on the machine. I ended up with 4 miles at a 6:41ppm with an overall total of 26:44. Lame.

I went down to the weight room after that for an hour and did my normal routine. I felt better after weights, so maybe I was just sore.

Went on a GORGEOUS bike ride at Trinity trails today. The weather was finally nice enough to get off the stationary and it was brisk, but fun. The sun set by the time I got back, though and I have to say it took awhile for my poor toes to thaw.

Total: 28miles      Avg: 14.3 mph       Time: 1:56:31

This was my off day. Normally I take Sunday off, but I was busy all day and couldn't make it to the gym, and I knew I'd have time on Sunday.
