Two workouts today. The morning workout was a 2300 yard swim. It was the same swim I did last Wednesday and I forgot my fins, same as last week. I also forgot to bring a bottle of water. I did remember the honey stinger gel. My stomach was giving me problems this morning and I wasn't sure I was going to go at all for awhile. I went ahead and fought through it this morning. Once I got going on the swim, I felt really good. The rest of the day at work went well and I was ready for the evening bike ride. I got out of work a little late and didn't get going until about 6:20pm. My goal was between 80-90 minutes tonight. I was supposed to warm up and then maintain a moderate pace the rest of the way. I was able to average almost 17mph tonight. the wind was blowing at least 15mph and I was making good time into the wind tonight. It was at my back on the way home and I was flying. It was dark when I got back to the house. I have about 4 more weekdays to get through on the bike before the race. I don't really like being out there in the dark by myself but what are you going to do. I have to get the workouts in. I am happy with my improvement on the bike. I think things are starting to turn aound and my stamina is getting better each week. My mileage has been off a little bit on the bike this year but I may be getting it back just in time.
