Friday - June 11

Today is an off day in prep for Sunday's race. I am starting to get excited/nervous. This should be a fun weekend, as we have family that lives on Lake Greenwood, so we are all heading down to their house Saturday and hanging out. Then Sunday having the race.

Run

15m

Speed/Efficiency
15' run with 4x30" strides. These are best if done on a slight downhill on a dirt path. Warm up for at least 10' before the first stride. For your recovery, you can walk back to the starting point. Strides are quick bursts that are as fast as 5k pace. You are looking to get in about 45 left foot strikes per 26-28". Stretch when done and add in Core 1, 2 or 3.

Took one of my dogs, Mia, with me for this mornings short jog. She really enjoyed it, and so did I. A few more days until Festival of Flowers, my first Olympic distance Tri (only my second tri overall). This is going to be fun!
