Wanted to just get out and dust the rust off. Couldn't tell you how long it has been since I have been outside on the bike. Wanted to take it easy and maintain 90+ RPMs for an easy ride.

Holy Headwind, Batman!!!

Don't think I got up to 16 mph on the way out.....but used the wind to my advantage on the way back in.
24.4 mph by not even trying and kept up my 90+ RPMs.

How in the heck do they fight the wind for 112 miles at Kona???

WU: 1x200

SET: 1x200/1x100

CD: 1x200

First real swim in months (the one last week sucked becuase of being sick). felt strong at first but that quickly changed as my swimming endurance is non-existent. Too much time off. The drills were smooth, but the Set was very unconfortable with ugly strokes. Gathered myself and focused on the second set of drills. Average SPL of 13.

Treadmill @ home at a 1% incline maintaining a 90 cadence.

Well, i finally got home late last night.  Had a few plane problems and well...I am the last one out when that happens.  But I guess there are worse places than Key West to get stuck for an extra day.  With all the plane headaches, it made for very long days over the weekend and as you can see, I got zero workouts in.  Now I am home and off for the next couple of days, so I will be able to get back into the groove.

Stationary bike at 97-100+ Rpms.

Another bike and weights workout today, as I will try to give the legs a rest before a long run tomorrow.  Have to move up my long run a day since saturday is a travel day back to New Orleans from Key West.
