Day 91, Week 13, Long Run [13.75M]

Didn't make it.  Heart rate went haywire too much.  Sigh.  I set up my route to end up back home to get more water after the first 2 loops, but when I got there, I was more dizzy than I liked so I stopped.  Maybe I could've rested a bit, then started again walking.

Day 90, Week 13, Medium Swim [2200y]

Good swim.  My max heart rate didn't get out of the 180s, first time since May.

Day 89, Week 13, Short Brick [45min/1.75M]

Good brick with the trainer. Did 40 seconds for single leg intervals.  I'm ready to graduate to 45 seconds next time.  My heart rate was high for my run, but stayed under 200 so I'm good with it.  I got 3 sets of core workout done, so that's 2 more making up for all of what I missed on Monday plus the one planned for today. Yippee!

Day 88, Week 13, Short Run [4M]

Good short run.  Started in 2nd gear and upped the end in 3rd gear for the last .75 starting at 3.25.  Next week, go to 1M in gear. That'll be a lot harder because it'll be starting on uphill.

Day 87, Week 13, Swim Drills [1650y]

Good workout.  Improved overall pace for drills by 1 second/100yds. Maybe I was swimming a little to hard, maybe not.  It didn't feel to bad, but my heart rate was really up.  I also got in 2 sets of core strengthening, yeah!  2 down to make up, 2 to go.

Day 86, Week 13, Long Core [34min]

Well, that didn't happen.  Jeremiah called and needed a ride late in the day and sucked up my time for the workout.  I'm finding it hard to feel like the long cores in the morning the day after my long workouts, so do them in the afternoon which makes them vulnerable to be usurped like today.  I'll try to make them up in the coming days.

Day 85, Week 12, Long Brick [30.5/1.75M]

Good long brick.  Hamstrings were killing me after the bike.  I guess that means I'm stroking well with my back and upstrokes per what John at 90+ told me.  It was second longest ride to the Barnsdall ride and just bit longer than the Woolaroc ride and PR for 30-35 miles. Yeah!  Heart rate got up there 140/195.  I think I'm okay if keeping it under 200 and that's what I'm going to go with.  Well, for biking and swimming I really can't monitor it much. I just go by how I feel.

For my running portion, it was good too. No records, but I was able to do last .5M in 2nd gear.  Heart was up too.  Started 150s then up to 180s.  In last .5M in 2nd, it was in the low 190s.  I felt fine.
