Training Log Archive: Yvonne

Kids @ in-laws so hubby & I headed out for a rare ride together. From Busch area, Greenway, over 40 bridge to Howell Island and back. Such a nice eve.

Almost forgot to register for my 2nd go at the LSL triathlon (short course, of course). Done. Goal is to better my time from last year. I have a plan for transitions (as opposed to NO plan last year) so that alone should buy me a couple minutes.

C • So, what's your plan? 10

- 35 mi. in the Busch area
- Rest of ride was Hamburg, Katy, and Greenway w/ side trips to Lost Valley, up Matson Hill Rd., and around Augusta.

Felt good throughout except started getting the yuck feeling at the very end due to heat. And it wasn't even a hot day! Glad to get the miles in though.

Finally back on the bike. Hamburg, Katy, Pittman Hill Rd., over the bridge to Monarch Levee trail, Greenway. Raining in earnest for at least half of the ride so I ended up totally coated in grit. Got back to work and rinsed off bike/self in my "bath puddle". Really wanted to lay down in the puddle to get the gobs of goo off my back, but our night security guard was there and I thought I should maintain at least some semblance of professionalism, so decided to forgo.

Sparring and KM3 classes. Actually felt coordinated in sparring for once and didn't get beat up too badly. Nice!

Gym after KM. Treadmill run - speed/incline variations.

Light intervals on the spin bike.

28 pool lengths. On a roll tonight - felt pretty coordinated in the pool too! Not bad at all.

Hip strengthening/flexibility. Haven't been feeling well the last several days - caught a bug of some sort.

Pants have been feeling loose, so decided to step on the scale. Somehow I lost 4 pounds on vacation. Huh.
