What is on tap today?

Either longer bike (@30 miles), or swim/bike brick.

Since I have a sprint on Saturday, was going to take today/tomorrow off....

:|

Body is saying, "no way, jose".

I'll take it easy and do ab work instead, and maybe go for a slow run or bike tonight...

Will also inspect bike and equipment, and practice some transitions.

Swam this morning, run on tap tonight. 

 I really wanna ride though since I just had a better bike fit.  Those that know how much I hated the bike before must be laughing at the new found bike crazies I have.  It's bad, really bad.

4.65 mi run this am. that is all. oh wait, finally pulled the trigger, payed the $$ and signed up for first OLY Sept 1st. Didnt get quite as far into the 16 wk swim focused Oly plan as I had hoped but feeling like I can do the distance. I'm pretty sure Ill survive the swim. Bike is ok, can always go slow, Its that 10K afterwards thats really got me spooked. Planning on doing 2-3 short bricks between now and then as per plan. Anyone who knows WTF is up want to look at my logs and give me some encouragement is welcome...nay sayers not so much since Im doing it regardless. Yeeeeahhhh!

You should be fine. You have at least one 9 mile run in there (that I saw), and all of your bike/swims are around or above the needed distances. A few bricks are always a good idea, just be sure to keep them easy. During the race keep it nice and relaxed. You will do great! Good Luck!

Uh oh, I think you might be in trouble with the BT police for that.
