Good morning!

4:30am:  1:15 on the trainer--main set 6X6:00 moving from high z2-z4 on 1 min recovery...uuugh, that was a grind!

5:45am:  Core--which I have been sadly neglecting, gotta start adding that back in.

Got in an amazing OWS yesterday after school--when I finished I realized I didn't wait for the GPS to fully load so no clue on distance #triproblems, lol!

Karen we get up early enough, I agree--not an attractive option to have to get up even earlier!

Happy training today!  4.5 weeks until St. George for me!

Good night! About to call it a day here. Nasty start to it--I had to fast for blood work as part of work permit physical and didn't get to eat until almost 11 AM. Ugh. No breakfast plus no coffee plus all those checkups equals cranky Karen with headache. Still felt yuck after eating and did not get my bones onto the trainer until almost 3 PM!

Then something similar to you--1:10 in my case with 3 X 9 minute intervals (with 2 minute recovery; but there was no Z2 involved--it started at high Z3 and just got worse from there). I kept wondering if my body was missing those four tubes of blood they took, or my nutrition was just all messed up--really did think I was going to puke on the last few minutes of each!

Plus a 10-minute brick run, which actually felt pretty good, at least by comparison to above.

Hoping the one decent apartment I looked at is still available--I've negotiated to move out of my present one earlier with no extra cost if it is. Cost aside, it has three compelling points in its favor--1. The landlord has converted half of the (very big) living room into a studio with AC and wood floors. Just asking to be a pain cave/exercise room/sports equipment and bike storage/cat tree location (so we can all exercise, but not out in the "living room"). It also makes the living room a lot cozier. 2. It is located exactly five floors above the coffee shop where I often stop on my way to school. 3. It is about five minutes closer to work than I am now. That's an extra five minutes of sleep! There's also a pool in the building--very basic but it looks marginally big enough to do a workout in if needed--even has three lanes!

Cut my intervals on the bike short by 15 minutes, too fatigued.  Going in for a root canal later today, so I'm skeptical that my swim will happen tonight.  We'll see.

Good five mile run this morning. Pushed the speed a little bit to test out my adductor area since I'm recovery from injury in that area. I have a race on Sunday and wanted to see how it felt. Good news, no issues and looking forward to my first race in over a year (Missed all of 2016).

Did some core and weight training after the run.

Have a great day everyone!

Hello. I knew I was almost recovered yesterday when I was looking forward to dinner (and then had seconds . . . and thirds). Today is the first day since Saturday that I've felt fully normal. What a relief.

5:40 - moderate 20' run

11:45 - 2,350 yard swim

Have a great one!
