a wonderful, end of winter cold? check.
a nice long sick day? check.
a new pair of biking shorts? check.
finally... week 2 is over!
I'm tired. I fought a cold all week, missed two days of working out, and didn't sleep hardly enough.
If you don't hear anything else when you are training for something, hear THIS: SLEEEEEEEP!
Here were my works outs this week:
Sunday: 45 min bike ride. 5 minute intervals and mod-high resistance
Monday: Sick :(
Tuesday: Sick :(
Wednesday: Swim! Today, I just wanted to see if I could do it. I warmed up (300 yards), 50 yards with a kickboard. Then I did my main session of 600 yards straight and it took me about 14:30. Then I did a cool down with some pull-ups at the deep end and and nice slow 100 yards. (Total: 1050 yards) I followed this with a biking workout of about 20 minutes, just to keep my workouts well rounded for the week.
Thursday: 15 minute warm-up on treadmill. Sprint drills in the gym, including lunges with medicine ball. A few back lifting exercises, too. LOTS of stretching.
Friday: Swim! WU: 10x50 descending and 200 drill. Main session: 4x200, 100 with kickboard (pull-ups-hands both directions 25 ea.), CD: 200 slow. (Total: 1800 yards)
Saturday: 6 mile run. On the most beautiful sunny day we've had in a long time :) And I got sunburned on my nose! Someone asked me if I went tanning today and it made me so happy because spring is almost here!!
Sunday: DAY OFF. Sweatpants ALL afternoon :)
