2nd Triathlon – 7 weeks to go…
Got a great workout in today. Went for a fast 9 mile bike ride and followed it up by swimming 100 laps in my pool which equals out to ¾ mile…total workout lasted 55 minutes
I am going to make this bike / swim workout part of my weekly routine (going to increase the distance of the bike another 2-3 miles though). I like the contrast of these two fitness activities. I get a great burn in the legs during the bike ride and I am pretty much crushing my upper body during the swim…as well as making my cardiovascular system work.
I have been in a rut with my nutrition since completing my first TRI ten days ago. I was allowing myself to cheat last week as a way of rewarding myself for all of the hard work I put in training. I guess I was a bit naïve to think I could cheat one week and think it would be easy to be strict the following week. My nutrition is going to get worse before it gets better too, I am heading north to NH for a 4 day vacation with the family starting tomorrow. I am not going to worry about my nutrition until I get back but I am going to try to get in at least one long distance run while I am there.
I leave for NH tomorrow morning but if I have time, my plan is to squeeze in another tempo/interval running workout prior…
