YMCA bike 65min
HR avg 132, max 162

Solid swim and bike. Feeling great on bike and in pool. Need to get out on the road to see if I've improved. C'mon Springtime!

Richmond, VA
70min run, 8.5mi

Ran on part of Richmond Xterra race route. Mostly road but did about 1-2 miles on singletrack. HR got a little high on trails and hills. Lots of fun!!!

2PM
55min, 2500 yds swim

Me and the pool are getting along famously. Endurance in the pool is making huge gains.

5:30AM
YMCA bike 75min, HR avg 129, max 155
t-run 30min, HR avg 154, max 167

Good ride but had some trouble getting HR to really go up as prescribed. I seem to have no problem spiking HR when on road but its harder on the trainer or the YMCA bike. T-runs feel great.

2/19/07

11:30AM
40min weights
65min swim, 2500 yards

Pool is getting more friendly to me. Feeling better about long workouts. Not so tired at finish this time. Ate a ton of food afterwards, however.

100min indoor bike on fluid2 trainer
HR avg 115 first half, 132 second half, HR overall max 157
nutrition during ride: 3 waffles, one bacon, 24 oz gatorade endurance, 12 oz water
28min t-run, 39deg, 4miles

A mediocre trainer ride followed by an absolute HAMMER of a t-run (waffle power?). 7 min miles for 4 miles. No record but felt great coming straight off 100 minutes on the bike.
