6:15 AM
another bike.
Activity: Bike
Distance: 15.5 miles
Time: ~1:05:00
Avg Speed: 14.3 mph
Max Speed: 21.9 mph
Average: 4:12
PLE: breathing pretty hard during the sprints. nice and easy w/u and c/d though.
Weather: 61/61 it was nice to not feel cold on the bike, tho it was kinda sticky this morning. i got kinda sweaty during my sprints.
This morning's workout:
15 minute w/u
3 x 5 min VO2 max w/ 2 minute recovery in between
c/d i went pretty slow at the end
On my VO2 max i got up near 20 mph even on the flat ground. I was pretty pleased with that. I was done with the VO2 max part about halfway through the ride, so I took it easy at the end and didn't push myself at all, which was very nice :-)
I'm not sure what to do about missing a run this week. I am planning to do the swim this afternoon though. Maybe I'll drop Brandy an e-mail to see if I can do a light jog tomorrow morning rather than a light bike. I am biked out for the week. I think that I have permanent bruises on my butt.
I really didn't want to wake up this morning. I was in a deeep sleep when my alarm went off, and it took 20 minutes or so to feel awake enough to get on my bike. I think that I had a pretty good ride despite that, though my legs were definitely whooped by the end.
I planned to do the 6 mile tempo run in the morning too, but I knew that it would have been really rough. Then I was definitely too tired at night to do the run. soooo I kinda skipped it.
mood:
i miss running.
health:
feelin' a little less tired.
