Catch up time again. Saturday I went for a long ride. Probably my longest of the season. 3 hours 45 minutes, about 70 miles. Felt pretty good, though a couple sections I started dragging a bit. It looked pretty flat but it was a few miles of gradual climbing. Didn't realize it until I turned to come come and was flying.
Sunday went for a long trail run, 90 minutes. Good gradual incline up the mountain, and then a bit of traversing coming back down. Good run, especailly after my longest ride.
Yesterday I went out to just spin to get the blood flowing the legs but ended up on a route that took me about 2 hours. 35 mile loop with some good head winds coming back. Felt pretty weak, though my heart rate stayed fairly low.
Tired today. May do some weights and a light 30 minute run or just may take the day off. Depends on how much work I need to get through today.
Also trying to decide on an Ironman to do next year. I would have liked to do CdA but it's the same time as Pacific Crest which is right here in town. Figured with the cost of racing I should try to do local ones to save some cash. So now I'm thinking Canada or Wisconsin.
