Full Speed Ahead

Okay, so here we go into another weekend of long workouts. Unfortunately, my other workouts are increasing to the point that my long workouts are not that much longer than my other stuff (and they are actually easier than some of the high intensity stuff). Today was my first Friday workout in a while. My training plan up to this point had included a rest day (and I haven't been swimming in several weeks). But from now on we are full speed ahead 7 days a week. My workouts are getting longer and harder, but at the same time I need to be careful because an injury at this point could really affect my plans.

I heard an interesting quote last night that seems to really relate to both life and my triathlon/endurance training. "Good judgment comes from experience, experience comes from bad judgment." Take from that what you will . . . .

***Anyway, last night (Thurs.) I ran 6.5 miles in 1 hour. This morning (Fri.) I got up, did a hard 1 hour session on the bike trainer and then ran 2.25 miles in 19:XX. It wasn't very long, easy, or pretty, but it was completed. I guess it was more of a briquette than an actual brick (bike workout followed by run).

This morning was my first morning workout in a while. It feels really good to get a workout before work.

Later.
