Mon: Dual workout w/Kimm Bike 28K/Run 13K Fun workout with a new friend from Namban. Was a bit of a chilly and early start at 6:30, but got warmed up quickly and enjoyed the company. Was sucking wind a little towards the end of the bike ride as we were riding into the wind. Use a HRM for the first time, and I hung right about 140 for most of the ride, speed was around 30 km/h average. The run was comfortable, kept it between 4:40-4:45 for pace. I ran the last 5k home pushing my bike, which was a first, and very easy and comfortable. Hope to get in some more workouts with Kimm, as we are in pretty similar shape.
Tue: 15.5/1:15/4:50/Evo Tough run. My left leg felt stiff for almost the whole run, could not get it to relax for some reason. Didn't really feel like pain, so I kept slogging through. Stopped for a pee towards the end, and when I tried to run again, it was so sore I could barely run, never mind walk. I guess it was a cramp, as it went away and I was able to walk ok, but going down steps was pretty uncomfortable. Wish I could figure out what it setting it off. Feels fine now, so I guess I'll decide tomorrow what to do about running tomorrow.
Wed: Bike 33K
Thu: 14/1:04:28/4:33/Mach 11 After the day off, went out at a pretty good pace, and just decided to keep it going. The knee felt pretty good, although I was getting some tightness behind my left knee near the hamstring. Both legs were pretty shot by the end of the run, but felt okay after stretching.
Fri: 8/40:09/5:01/Zoom XC Legs felt rough, especially my lower left hamstring. Couldn't get it to relax and it felt almost like it was popping. Decided to can the run early so that I could get in a decent run on Saturday.
Sat: 16.6/1:18/30/4:43/BF Beautiful, not too cold weather, so decided to give BF a go again. Was a good run overall, good pace for BF, although perhaps a bit fast, since I did end up getting a couple of blisters on my right foot, one pretty big blood blister on the outside, but that may have been more from a rock I stepped on than anything else. My furthest BF run so far!
Total Mileage: 67.1 Pretty good, want to think of this as an off week, but getting up into the 80's has been tough lately, so we'll see.
