Brick Workout- 26.75mi Bike
Brick Workout- 26.75mi Bike by terrypeppers at Garmin Connect - Details
My knee hurt during the 1st and last miles. Other than that, I was ok. I DEFINITELY need to go to Koala Health & Wellness and have them look at my knee. The 1st half of the ride into the wind... not fun at all. That was the 1st time I felt winds like that while on a bike. I had to stay in the aero position, otherwise I wouldn't have made any forward progress. On the way back, the tailwind was GREAT! I was hitting and maintaining speed up to 23mph.... NICE!!!

Training- 8mi Run
Training- 8mi Run by terrypeppers at Garmin Connect - Details
Damn... I ran too fast and probably too far. Technically, I was suppose to run 4 miles since I ran the marathon last weekend. Had I not ran the marathon, I was suppose to run 8 miles today. Technically, this was considered a Saturday Long Run, therefore I should have ran at 8:30/mile pace. BUT... 8 miles really isn't a "long run" for me, so I was thinking I should run it at a "short run" pace of 8:15/mile. After the 1st mile, I was feeling good, so I picked up the pace to ~8:00/mile. After 2 miles, I didn't want to turn around (and stop after 4 miles), so I decided to go ahead and run 8 miles.
BAD IDEA! I'm still not fully recovered from the marathon. After 6 miles, my IT (illiotibial) bands on both knees started hurting, so I stopped running and walked about 100 meters. Then I started running again, at a slower pace. I ran that mile in 8:30. Then I decided to pick up the pace again to 8:00/mi. Now I'm done running and both my knees/ IT bands hurt... not good! Hopefully I'll be fine tomorrow. I have a swim/bike brick tomorrow.

Gettin' back on track!
This past week, I haven't done much. Just been trying to recover for the marathon.
Monday: Rest
Tuesday: Rest
Wednesday: Swim 1500 meters
Thursday: Was suppose to do a brick, but it was canceled because of the weather. I swam instead.
Friday: Rest
Wednesday was a good swim because I tried to swim the entire distance in 25 meter increments, but with minimal (less than 30 second) breaks in-between. It ended up taking me almost exactly 1 hour to finish. Next swim, I'm really going to try to follow the scheduled workout and not just focus on swimming the scheduled distance. I also called to set up a Swim Stroke Evaluation with Johnny. That's scheduled be on Thrusday Feb. 10th
