This week was a new week for me! I looked at my workouts on Monday and was sooo excited. I had more time to commit to training and boy did Barb (coach) take advantage of it. Today I had to run a tempo run at 5am with my brother who is a ton faster than me, fun! Then mid morning I did a bike with a mini brick at the end. There were a bunch of 6:20 pace running that ended at 5% grade on the TM. I was worried that I would bonk b/c of the run this morning. But I didn't!!!! It actually ended up being a great workout. I felt like I could run that pace forever. I am getting more excited now about training that I see small improvements every week. It is soo much fun to see how far you can push yourself and what the return is for your hard work. So then I jump of the TM and have 20 min of leg strength!!! OHHH I love it. She it totally into strength training. I used to skimp on it but now I am a true believer! It has really helped my power on the bike. I am excited to race a local tri in a week and a half. Jen H will be there. I don't think we have been at the same race in a long time.
SO Bring it on Barb!
