As planned, Saturday I got back into the training mode. Well frist I sat myself down in an effort to figure out my new bike rack. Then I got a littl workout just trying to get the bloody bike on the rack. From there I went to the little park and did a 8 mile bike ride. My goal is to add 2 miles on the bike each week. I will probably shoot for more on the stationary bike at the gym. That way I can also add some hills without the fear of falling over just yet. By race day I should be up to 16 miles on the bike. I only need 9 (phew)
I also packed up my bag to hit the gym. I got somewhat sidetracked in my efforts - that's mostly from sitting down and figuring out the bluetooth in my car. I ended up swimming with KP. I did 100yd warm up. 50 yd. fast, 50 yd. right breathe, 50 yd. left breathe, 250 yd straight swim, 50 yd. fast, 50 yd. cool down for a total of 650 yds. For the swim I want to continue to improve my speed and add the left breathe. Between now and the race I don't imagine that I will add much distance. I will probably keep it around 700 to 1000. However by year end I would like to shoot for that mile. I suppose that will be Oct/Nov/Dec training.
And the run. Well that didn't happen on Saturday.
Sunday I battled the bike rack again and did another 8 miles. Now I am thinking I need to add that run. I just need to motivate to do it. Sitting here and typing in a bit more enjoyable.
