foot cramps really hurt
lastnight's swim swim prematurely due to foot cramps. i was swimming 400s when both feet started cramping on my 4th 400. by the middle of the 5th i came to a stop in the middle of the pool. my workout ended up being 2500m/42min. after a 500warm, i did 5x400 w/ :40 ri. my first four avg'd 5:50 but the 5th was 6:30 b/c i had to swim back to the edge for my buoy to do the last 200. i was hoping to get in 6x400 but it didnt happen. still a good swim up to the cramping part.
this morning was an 1hr of strength training for the core, legs and upper body.
this afternoon was 90min trainer ride. i would have hit the road but with the wind i could get a better quality workout on the trainer. after a warmup and some 1 leg drills the main set was 2x25min with 10min RI. the goal was to stay in 1-2 gears in the middle of the big ring and hold a steady cadence. i put some tension on the flywheel to make it a little tougher. my HR for the 1st 25min was 124 and the 2nd was 120. overall HR was 114. This was a tough workout that really taxed the legs near the end of each interval.
tomorrow is a 4hr bike/2hr run brick. i plan to try nutrition plan for IMAZ in this brick to see how the body handles it.
