MITCS wrap up

The last Midwest Indoor Tri Championship Series race was yesterday.  I did about the same as in the others but slower in both the swim and bike.  Nevertheless, I feel pretty well trained at this point.  That was three very high intensity workouts over the last 4 weeks. Now I just need to get outside on my bike and put in some longer w/os! 

Ascend cycling workout

Did a fun group w/o yesterday at the Ascend Bike Studio. Ran 4 miles before and afterward. This was a good in between MITCS races workout because it wasn't too taxing but still challenging.

MITCS

Sunday was the 2nd MITCS indoor race.  It definitely went better than two weeks ago, but I ended up with tendinitis in my left knee.  Hopefully this resolves quickly so I can get back to training!  Plus, I can't wait to get out there and so some cross-country skiing since we finally have snow. 

Two months and counting!

Ok, exactly two months to go till the Duathlon National Championship!  I'm already feeling a little over-trained. Maybe too much speed work or HIIT.  I really need to get outdoors.  Yesterday I got into an argument with a guy at the gym who was very slowly jogging with his girl friend in the fast lane on the track.  I need to just keep my mouth shut and deal with it!  That's not like me (although I always think about saying something, I never do). Next time I see him I'm going to apologize.
