Great weekend of biking and running
Today was the final day of my 5 day weekend (i have been off work since thursday). I wanted this past weekend to be a chance for me to kickstart my training for IMAZ. I have been pretty low-key since Conroe and I was actually getting use to sleeping in over the last month. I have slowly been working back in to running, swimming, and weights and it was time to dial it up a notch. Since thurday I have had 2 good runs of 6 miles and 8 miles and I have biked 3 times for a total of 4.5 hours.
Today was my longest bike yet. I put in 2hours and i loved every minute of it (minus my back getting sore the last half hour). I rode the first hr easy in the small ring and then moved to the big ring for the second hr ( pushed it some near the end doing 3x 9:30 min laps at the 3mile veloway loop). The weather this past week was perfect and it did not let me down today. Now that I am back at work during the week it will be 2 trainer rides during the week and 1 long ride on sunday. I hope to build to 4hr rides by January.
Tomorrow is an off day other than some core work.
