8mi. During the 1 mi warmup I was questioning my breathing. Each lap of 6 on the bridge was tough, I felt very lazy and slow. I noticed a difference between good leg and injured side, but no ill effects on the hill. It was humid and dark - the east side of the bridge … Continue reading The:Last:Bridge:Runner
10mi. Ordinarily, a holiday weekend means more time to run and ride long. That's when I'm not injured or recovering - a regular start at the store run yielded a warm 10 mi for me today, with no lingering effects afterwards. I ran with Suzanne and a guy named Richard Powell. We saw Mimi running, … Continue reading Saturday’s are back, too!
1600 yds. I did the workout below, in the crowded Lake Lytal pool due to summer camp attendance. I swam next to Dave Ragsdale, unknowingly until we were asked to leave the pool because a kid had apparently vomited in the pool on the other side. Usually they clear the pool for lightning, but I … Continue reading Swim in the relish
33miles. This was a good day to ride, really no breeze except for a small bit coming back. We had plenty of time to talk, ride, and see others out there. We went to the preserve park at the end of Jupiter Island, and also saw the alleged "Bill Gates" secret road with all of … Continue reading Tooling up the Island with Walter
2000 yards. I tried the swim fins with yesterday's workout - it led me to have weird cramps in my toes and calf muscles. Today, thankfully, no kicking was prescribed. Just a few mixed sets of regular freestyle. It was warm and uncrowded today, wait 'til next week when all the schools are out and … Continue reading No kicks after therapy
20mi. I spun through my Singer Island early route this morning instead of running. It was windy form the NE, so the trip up Singer Island was against the wind. My average speed was 19.1 for the route, my hurt leg felt some of the effects of riding so I never pushed that hard. It … Continue reading Off the mark a bit
2000 yards of this: Warmup Set (200y) 4 x 50 [25 build/25 easy] @ 0:10 rest Main Set (1500y) 12 x [25 @ 0:50, 25 @ 0:45, 25 @ 0:40, 25 @ 0:35, 25 @ 0:30] Warmdown Set (300y) 6 x 50 [25 easy/25 build] @ 0:10 rest It was good, I must be getting … Continue reading The water’s feeling better
33 miles. Another ride up the Jupiter Island stretch, this time with others. I started with the 6:30am group, went most of he way up with them, staying to talk with Adrienne Papa for the last 3 miles heading north. The way back was with a new rider to the group named Chris, Bob who … Continue reading This again?
19 miles. The time seems to be longer than just about an hour, and at today's 16.1 mph average pace, it was. I think about all sorts of things, it's so dark and as a result, there's no scenery, so I find an idea and I chase it. Work, training, swimming, it's all fair to … Continue reading Riding and daydreaming
