Ironman Lake Placid Training week #22

What a week last week was! The weather was still crappy and couldn't really get outside too much. Did my 3:30 long bike on the trainer yet again. I did manage to enjoy the peek of nice weather we had on Sunday. With that saying, no snow and no rain.

I tried to meet every goal last week, every training session, but life intercepted and let me know it couldn't be done last week. I only missed the full training week by 25 mins though

Last week I tried to focus on eating a little bit better than I normally eat. Trying to avoid the sweets I have succumbed to over the winter. my addiction is chocolate. Yes, yes I have a problem.

While on my long run Last Sunday, I felt dead. Legs felt like lead, But I kept imagining what it would feel like after biking 112 miles beforehand. I sucked it up and completed my run. I had pretty good numbers last week and was on cloud nine!

Easter was Sunday as well. I got to hang out with some very special people! Life is so much better when you have the best family by your side!



Training in numbers:
Swim- 5275-1:33:30
Bike- 172 miles- 8:35:33
Run- 36.6 miles-5:26:00

Total Time- 15:35:03

Happy Training!!
