Brick Workout- 6.5mi Run

I was suppose to run yesterday, but didn't so I ran extra today, after the bike ride.  I was suppose to run 3 miles today, but as I was running, I decided to go ahead and do another loop (each loop is 3.25 miles).  I took a piss break between laps and my back was definitely tight, so I ran the laps slow.  I started off fast for the first 2 miles, but then fell off.  I was able to pick up the pace the last mile though and finish strong.

Brick Workout- 15.5mi Bike

1st bike (spin) since accident.  It went good.  I didn't feel any back pain at all, so I'm confident that I can go 100% and not hold back during my rides/spin classes.

Brick Workout- 3mi Run

1st run since bike accident! Went good.  Accidentally did negative splits and ran WAY TOO FAST the last mile cause this guy wanted to race me.  He had passed me after the 1st mile, when I was just taking it easy to see how I felt.  Then I picked up the pace because I was feeling good, but I wasn't trying to catch up to that guy, it just slowly started happening.   By the time the second mile was over, I was about 10 yards behind the guy and he heard me, so he started to run faster... which made me want to run faster.  I hadn't "tried" to catch him, but now that I was so close, I wanted to beat him to the finish.  I caught up to him and we ended up SPRINTING side by side to the finish.   That wasn't smart... that night my back was really killing me!!!

Had a pretty bad bike crash! Ambulance and everything...

First 30 miles of the bike was great!!  I was really impressed by the progress that I had made.  I was going pretty fast and hard the whole time.  That good feeling made me want to go even faster and harder, so I did...  more to come.
