Legs = Gone

I am sore and I feel like I can sleep all day. I have a couple of tough workouts today. My legs are pretty sore. Tomorrow is a rest/stretch day, so I will need to push through. Thing 1 has been getting up way too early as of late. We need to stop this insanity.


AM Workout

20 miles on the bike. I basically wanted to get in some sprints, standing climbs, etc. My pace was good (21mph), as was my cadence (90+). The weather was terrible. It was very windy and I got caught in the rain a couple of times. After that, I really had to be careful on my turns. The streets were very slippery. My neck area was really sore from spending the majority of my time in the aero position on Friday.

My bike is coming a long good. Normally when I train for triathlon, I only bike one day a week due to my schedule. This year I promised myself I would do my best to get in the saddle at least twice a week.


PM Workout

This was another Kettlebell/Ab Ripper X day. I was beat by the time this workout came around. I really just wanted to take a nap.

The squats and lunges were really tough today. My quads were telling me to stop, but I wanted to get these sets in. I know in a few weeks that my training is going to change and my strength training workouts will not be this intense. Knowing this change is on the horizon helps to get thru these workouts.
