Big swim and good run

We had a team training and coach put us through the ringer. I felt really good and my speed has definetly improved. We then did a five mile run over the hills in Gilford. I actually enjoy hills more then the flats on the seacoast. You get to work different muscle groups.

Neck is still a little sore, but I will get through it.

Great week

I finally had a really good week of training. I made a few adjustments to my schedule and I was able to commit. Awsome.

Here are the weekly totals

S: 6700.00 Yd
2h 42m

B: 71.00 Mi
3h 50m

R: 16.45 Mi
2h 27m

Stength

1H 30 min

Total workout time 10hrs and 40min. I would like to get that to 15-20hrs of working out. SICK!

Thursday

I have been super committed to my training as of late. My IT band is a little sore from running 9 miles and swimming 1.4 miles. I will be biking for an hour today and that should stretch it out. Great week so far!

Finally a good workout

The last two weeks have been tough, but today I had a really good workout. I swam, ran and a little weights. I am amped up to get back on it. Some of my teammates are a head of me right now in training and I am jealous. It is time for me to have no exscuses and put this body forward. I am not going to train angry, just driven.

A set back in training

Kate has been ridiculously sick lately, 104 temp, bronchitas, flu, etc... So I have been taking care of her and trying to stay healthy myself.

To add to it, I pulled a muscle in my neck that is killing right now. I wish it was doing something cool, but of course not. Drying my hair with a towel! My hair is about a quarter of an inch long right now, so that adds to it even more.

Seeing how I am complaining here, what is up with the SNOW!

Alright, that is off my chest. I am going to hit the pool tomorrow and possibly ride the trainer this afternoon.

Good swim this am

I had a really good swim this morning. My breathing is getting better and my form is as well. A little shoulder pain, but nothing too bad. I have eaten much healthier the last two days.

I am planning on adding a tri in July. The Patriot half ironman. Money is tight, but it is $75 less then all the other ones and I can split a room. Still need to run it by the boss lady, but should be a lock.

Getting back on track.

The last two weeks have been junk. Training has been ok, but I have been traveling and eating poorly. Today I am back on it though. I am buying groceries for the week and really going to step it up in that department.

I spent the weekend in Phily. We had a great time. Visited the Philly art musuem and walked around a little. I also got to see my "future" niece and nephew. Such good kids. LOTS OF ENERGY!!

I feel good to get back on track though. Weather should be breaking soon and I am really looking forward to logging some miles.
