6.9.16 Thursday Training

We also have one more day (just a teacher work day till 1 or 2 PM) till summer break here! Feeling a little under the weather today (think it was something I ate yesterday, which affected sleep as well as stomach) so the end-of-year drama was really a uphill slog today.

AM: Easy one-hour run. (Supposed to be fartlek, but easy was all I could manage.)
PM: Feeling a bit better once I got home; 30 minutes of lower body and core strength stuff.

I don't even want to talk about the temps here in Phoenix right now. At least we are catching a bit of a break compared to the end of last week Got a little later start than normal today.

6:00 am 13 mile bike ride
6:00 pm 35 minutes strength/agility training
8:00pm 30 minute run

Well it looked like it was going to rain most of the day here, and it did a little.

So I stayed indoors today, even though I probably could have gotten an hour ride or run in. In addition to my morning 2 minute plank, I did my 8 minute boot camp video. Then after the Mrs. got home, I headed out to the pool. I had the best workout there I've had since high school or college. I did a hilltop workout on 100 yard increments (except the 400), so it went 100 200 300 450 500 450 300 200 100 with a minute or two rest between steps. I did the 450s instead of 400s because the tri I am doing next month is a 400 meter swim, so I figured a 450 yard swim would be close enough.

So it ended up being a 2600 yard workout in about an hour, and I felt good afterward.

Have a great evening,
