Ok, since I don’t have internet at home, I have to bust this out real quick at work.
Wednesday’s workout went really well, I’d say. I hoofed it on the bike to Kezar Stadium, which had become quite chilly (good old SF summer). We did a 40 minute ride and were told to "push it" on the last five minutes or so. Well, that wasn’t a problem as I rode with the Big Kahuna folks who pretty much push it the whole time. We rode through the park, out to the beach and then along the great highway until it was time to turn around. I managed to keep up ok with a minimum of panting. Then we hopped off our bikes, slapped on our shoes and started running. First we were to do two warm up 800s and then a mile marker set. I did my first 800, rested a few and then did my second 800. Just as I finished the 800, coach was sending people on the mile marker, saying anyone who hadn’t gone needed to go. Well shoot. So I started right away. I guess it’s a 1.5 mile marker set. Needless to say, it wasn’t my best run, but I did ok. I actually dropped a few seconds off my last marker set–time was 6:55. To be honest, I pushed it a bit more than I should have as the goal is to go at a sustainable pace, but oh well. Did a mile cool down after that and hopped on the bike for the trek home.
Thursday I had planned to do my swim workout, but I discovered that the pool was closed. Doh. So, I rode the bike for an hour — 40 minuts and then 3×6 minute Lvl3 intervals. Went about 21 miles. I was on the reclining bike, which I liked better than the upright. I imagine they excercise different groups–hope it was actually worthwhile. Got on the treadmill for a few minutes afterward to give my legs the ole’ noodle leg treatment.
