I wanna hear about Dawn's race :D and did we have any Womens in KONA?
My goal from last week: get enough sleep.
6/7 days, not bad. It was the week before fall break at school, plus I had to work one day (and that meant a 90 min commute late one night, to be on the island for the next morning). Overall, I did well... and now that I am on fall break, I have spent a lot of time catching up on sleep.
training totals from the week:
run - 30.4 mi (5 runs)
swim - 40,100 scy (7 swims)
elliptical - 65 min
bike - 40 min
Not bad. I am still trying to make peace with food and weight and eating... and trying to be OK with the fact that getting some swimmer muscle back (and swimming faster!) means the # on the scale will go up... this does not sit well in my head. But I did have 2 sandwiches last week (another goal). Was a bit anxious over them. But I did it.
I have a new run coach now :-) GOAL 1 for this week: I am one lucky girl to have J. coaching me, so the goal is DON'T SCREW THIS UP. In other words, do as he says.
GOAL 2: swim at least 35k. Bonus points if I can get 40k in but as I didn't swim yesterday (I think of weeks as Sun-Sat) not sure that volume will happen. Though we're off to a good start with 7.7k this AM.
maybe she's born with it, maybe it's chlorine
If you're injured and need some sympathy, PM me and I'm very happy to write back.
