Good morning BT!

6:30am:  5X5 strong lift +core

8:00am:  30 minute run in z2

Later:  1800m swim with various sets.  Steve...I am feeling your pain with hitting splits.  I'm not sure there is much difference between my recovery 25m versus my 'hard' 25m.  Ah well.  I'm trying!

Robert--yes it is painfully slow isn't it?  I can tell you after a month of disciplined Z2 running, I am feeling stronger and getting faster.  Plus, so much easier on my 47 year old legs--my runs feel great now, albeit slow.

Elton and Kelly--so sorry to hear about your knee issues! I sure hope it's not too serious!  

Have a great day--good luck racers!!!  Can't wait to hear reports!  Karen, I'm assuming you're either on your way to CDA or are already there! So beautiful up there!

Thanks Kim

Only weight training today since I have a race on Saturday.

Looks like the weather is going to be nice and no rain to effect the race.

Have a great weekend everyone!

0600: 750m swim

Yesterday's run actually FELT good - I wasn't tired or winded. I think the hardest part for me is the "pride" - I used to run sub-8:00/miles, now I'm having to run 10:00+/miles to stay in Z2, for now. (Maybe the sub-8:00s contributed to my injuries when I should have really been running slower???)

Hello, BT! Last night, I busted out the new telescope and was treated to a nice view of Jupiter and the 4 Galilean moons. Pretty cool.

5:40 - 30' moderate run. It was really humid - almost felt like a swim. Yuck. Tomorrow, I have an epic brick workout.

Good luck to everyone who is racing this weekend!

Hot here today! 112 heat index, so I ran 3 miles and hopped in Barton creek to cool off. Kim I'll take you there when you come so we can swim with the swans and the turtles. Long run planned for tomorrow and then in the evening I'm doing the Keep Austin Weird 5k with some friends. It involves lots of costumes and shenanigans so there may be a few pictures as a result.Lundy what does Jupiter look like through a telescope?
