Tuesday Workouts

 Blah night for me.  I did 18.5 miles on my bike in an hour.  It was the hilly course so not entirely bad though my cadence was low and I had a hard time picking it up.  
Went down to the pull last night too -- got out after about 40 minutes, it just wasn't going great there either:(  I got a little over a 1000 yards but never really felt like I did Monday.  Tonight is the masters swim so I'm going to rest up to be fresh tonight.  

Today is a rest day (Wednesday), but yesterday i lifted weights for 40 minutes (legs and core), did a spin on the stationary bike for 32 minutes (did just over 10 miles @ levels 12 to 14), did 37 minutes on the stairmaster, and then swam a 1/2 mile in the pool in about 16 minutes (had to cut the swim short because i was late to my first meeting of the day.)

Coached group open water swim in Benbrook Lake... Somewhere between 1.5 and 2 miles. We have a 2.5 - 3 mile  open water swim on Thursday.... I love my new wetsuit

 what wetsuit did you get?

* Suit is made primarily out of Yamamoto neoprene #40 which is the most comfortable and flexible neoprene on the market. * Almost zero water allowed to enter suit. (metal cell material and jersey allow direct neoprene contact to skin). * Reverse zipper design allows the fastest opening and prevents accidental opening in the water. * Shorter cut on arms and legs allows for faster removal of wetsuit. * Flexible zipper design contours to the shape of athletes back during swim. * Ultra flexibility textile in the shoulders and armpits with multi-directional stretch. * High 7mm neoprene inside and outside of collar eliminates chafing. * Grooved panel on arms and legs offers resistance to water during the pull phase of swimming stroke. * 3 mm neoprene behind the knees for increased flexibility to assist with running during the transition phase. * SCS (Super Composite Skin) gives the wetsuit a very slick outer surface. Like Butter!!!! Not Cheap but this bad boy rocks!!! It is the Profile Design CELL Gold.... #40 Neoprene $619.00 (Got a crazy deal though)

What a day to feel weak.  I just had no energy and it was a weight lifting day.
I could have slogged through a run, but the weights just kicked my butt.  Each set was a whole new experience of crap how come i'm so weak today.

I feel much better today, so I'll take it out on the run course and see how that goes tonight.
