Tuesday and it is midweek for me! Hope you had a chance to read my running post from earlier. Speaking of running, that was on the agenda for today! I almost ran outside, as it was 29 degrees, but there was frost on the car and I decided just to go to the gym. Feeling [...] First off, thank you so, so much for all of your kind words! I am still over the moon about yesterday. Still feeling like this! I spent the rest of the day relaxing. Took a nap for a while after we got home, watched some Tour de France, then we went out to dinner [...] Grab a cup of coffee, this is a long recap! It’s done! And my sister and I had a fabulous time (nerves and all). Went to bed last night somewhere around 10:30 with a 4:15 am wake up call (ugh??). At around 1 am – big thunderstorms rolled in, which woke me up and [...] Long post ahead! Tomorrow is the big day and I am starting to get really excited! I can’t believe the day is almost here, it feels like it has been forever. Spent some time working on my bike a bit, cleaning the chain and decided to do something fun with my helmet. Old helmet: [...] Well, the weather wasn’t promising when I got up, but I decided to go for the brick anyway. John actually decided to join me for the bike leg, which just about made my jaw fall on the floor. He is usually sleeping when I get up and leave the house for the Y. First, I [...] Okay, first is the workout and breakfast – then my suit arrived! Woke up early again (on my day off grrr……. The Y was pretty empty today, probably because the pool was closed for repairs, or because it was Friday! Anyway, jogged for 30 minutes, then NROLW: Barbell deadlifts: 1 x 10 75 pounds, 1 [...] Trisuit news later in post! Had a good workout today, but so incredibly sweaty. I did some walking and jogging on the indoor track today, then NROLW: Barbell squat/push press: 1 x 10 22 pounds, 2 x 10 45 pounds Step ups: 2 x 10 with 30 pound dumbbells Dumbbell 1 point rows: 2 x [...] I think I have found the perfect fuel for workouts. It’s half a bagel with nut butter. This is the 2nd time I have had this and both times I did not get hungry at all during the workout! I try to keep my preworkout fuel to around 100-150 calories. The bagel and nut butter [...] Did another brick today! Did a bike ride and then a run. I ate 1/2 of this bar before the bike (review on effectiveness in a bit): Then did a 9 mile bike loop. Not super fast, as it was early! I even remembered to downshift to a low gear for about 1/2 a [...] Rainy day today, and I thought the Y would be packed, but it was really empty, including the pool. That meant I had a lane all to myself so I could swim slow and drift around all I wanted LOL! I did a swim/bike brick today. Swim: 750 yards (sounds better than 30 laps!) Bike: [...] |
