Run

Tomorrow is a two hour run. I am bringing along three GU packets, 1 Chomps package and a bottle of gatorade.  I think that I need to start at about 6:30 am in order to have time for it tomorrow. Yikes.

Half a day done!

I only managed half of my workout today (or maybe two-thirds?).

I biked for 45 minutes relatively hard and immediately (3 minutes) got onto the treadmill and ran for 30 minutes at a pace a little faster than my usual (that's only about a 9:50 mile right now) but felt pretty good about it.

However, I did not manage to finish my swim. Or start it.  I didn't have the energy and I needed to get work done.

Break day

I took today off. My body was too sore from yesterday and I didn't want to push it.  Here is what I did do though.

I ate:
tall starbucks skinny mocha
bagel and cream cheese
small chicken and rice
some pretzels
pasta and marinara sauce
chocolate milk

Pretty low on the veggies and fiber today but I have a long workout tomorrow and a second medium workout so I am trying to eat high on the carbs but low fiber.  I hope to start keeping better track of this because I have not been losing the weight that I have wanted to.

Completion!

I managed to finish today's workout.  The original goal was to run for 25 minutes, bike for 2 hours and run another 25 minutes. I ended up choosing the shorter version of the suggested workout and only biking for an hour and a half.  So, I ran for 50 minutes and biked for an hour and a half.

1 Gu
1 Chomps
2 servings Gatorade
Water
1/2 Chocolate power bar

and
I lost about 5 lbs of sweat during the workout despite drinking and eating. I felt fine throughout it though right now, about 4 hours later my legs are a little tired and my feet are pretty sore.  I will ice more later, drink water and see how I feel tomorrow.

So, tomorrow's workout is a long swim and there is a very difficult Tuesday and Thursday this week.

I'm late.

Today is a 3 hour workout. I am late, however.  I was supposed to have started already but I woke up late, and still have preparations to do.  My movie is not downloaded, I needed food and some time for it to settle and I still need to get some water.

Here it is:

Run: 25 minutes
Bike: 120 minutes
Run: 25 minutes
