Tired today from not sleeping well over the weekend and the party on sunday evening but I still got everything off as planned.

When I got done with my swim I drove to the north-most parking lot on Hines drive and ran from there. It was misty and getting dark so I stuck to the low traffic area. I was really tired and had to put down a gel to keep going. I've got to get to bed early tonight if I want to complete the week as planned.

Monday 1-14

A little tired from not sleeping well

Run 30 minutes on treadmill
3.5 miles HR 136

Swim 1800 meters, short swim to just get movement

Training in the cold

For some stupid reason I thought I could bike outside today without any issues. The Weather Channel said 40 degrees but it seriously felt like 30 degrees.

Anywho, the only issue I had was that my feet were cold. Colder than I realized as I needed to take a few minutes and warm my feet at home before I ran. The rest of my body was fine.

Bike 19.9 miles 1:10:11 125 watts HR 126
Run 2.6 21:54 HR 137

AAAHHHHH!!!

Oh, I'm feeling last night's run now!!!

Staying with the 500 theme I did some more
800 warm up
500 as 100 hard, 100 easy, 100 hard, 100 easy, 100 hard (1:00 Rest)
500 moderate pull (:30 Rest)
500 as 100 hard, 100 easy, 100 hard, 100 easy, 100 hard (1:00 Rest)

I think I'll stick with the 500's for another week with mixed up more like today.

Run was cut short cuz of the rain. I was concerned about getting sick.
