I was able to hit all of my workouts this week and even added a little. The goatneck bike tour was on Saturday and that gave me a supported 70 mile ride with some really great hills and lots of great people. Bikers are awesome. The tours are a really fun atmosphere; you see all kinds, that's for sure! Because I am concentrating on training for triathlons where drafting is not allowed, I do not get in the pelotons at the rides. I try to stay down in my aero bars and do my own thing. There was a guy on Saturday that came up behind me and stayed on my wheel for a few minutes before he came up beside me and said "well, it is useless to try to draft off of you!" It was pretty funny. I was able to average 19.9 for the 70 miles and then jumped off and ran for 45 minutes. It was a good day.
Totals for the week:
swim: 3:00 9000 yards
bike: 6:20 115 miles
run: 4:40 30.8 miles
total: 14:00
For the next three weeks I will be on the road to Florida, Colorado and Austin, so my workouts will be worked in where they can. My schedule this week calls for
swim: 2:30
bike: 6:05
run: 3:35
total: 12:10
This is where I have chosen to document my training for the Ironman Triathlon in Cozumel, Mexico to be held November 29, 2009.
