Well, as suspected I was pretty tired after last week and racing Sunday. I was happy to look at my plan Monday night during dinner and realize that I had scheduled myself off for Tuesday as well!! Two days off in a row...haven't done that in quite some time. So today was really nice. I'm feeling pretty good and happy to be entering into a recovery week. My only goal this week is to get to the pool twice and keep my run base up. Everything is easy this week, well except the swim which is always pretty hard. Even then I will back off slightly in the pool as well.
It's nice to see the sun coming out here in Oregon. We should have a decent week of weather and the weekend is looking to be really nice. I'm really hoping for a decent spring! I have another camp in a month and would really not like to repeat last week of rain, snow, and cold! It was pretty tough to get in the 13 hours on the bike I did...next camp is even more...so keep your fingers crossed for me! I'm really trying to concentrate on health right now. Proper sleep, listening to my body, eating healthy, alcohol to a minimum, etc. This will help me absorb the large base volume I'm putting in and prepare my body for a strong build up to Boise.
Thanks to those of you who reached out to me on the Shamrock race. Much appreciated. It means a lot to me to have friends and family that take the time to pay attention to my obsession with triathlon! Help makes the training go a little easier, and definitely is a motivator on the course!! Hope everyone is having a great week. Thanks for reading,
