Up at 5:35 a.m. to get to the pool, muscles still sore and feeling yesterday's training. Today for the swim Wes had us doing 100 yd speed intervals followed by 50 yd speed intervals. The interval time was calculated using our 100 yd split time from yesterday. He worked us hard, at the end of the speed intervals I was completely wore out.
The rest of today's work out was a bike/run/bike/run brick combination. We started at Veyo on the bike and rode the loop back to Veyo, 43 miles. This was followed by an hour run doing an out and back from Veyo. I was feeling really worn out so I cut the run short only getting in 4.25 miles. Next was an hour and fifteen minute ride following the loop back to the far southwest side of St George, 23 miles. This ride was followed by another hour run, which I did get the full hour in finishing with 6 miles. Killer pace right!!!! That's all I could do.
Wes suggested we do a ten minute ice bath on our legs. I was too sore to go get ice, so I just did a cold bath. It did help my legs feel a little better. |
