NEWWWW- this is now my training log!

Long time no talk. Anyways, I decided to follow the stinky trend of she who shall not be named and turn this into my training log (plus a few fun stories here and there). BERGEN, i want you to make one too so we can stay motivated and i can make fun of you easier :P

Anyways, rough week.... only got in 4 days of actual working out..unless i decide to do something tonight (maybe).

Monday I drove back with a friend from New Jersey, then worked 8pm till 3am. That really threw off my schedule. so nothing

Tues- Usually i train with the team, but lab was in the way. Still managed to bike 1 hour 15 minutes and do a sprint run 1.2 miles.

Wed- NOTHING. I ended up passing out instead.

Thurs- bike 1 hour 30 minutes/run 1.3. best workout in a while. HR was a bit higher than normal (probably lack of sleep). Was having a rough time sleeping due to a bad back. the heat pad is my friend......but i sprinted the run and at the end was going 6 20 pace which is crazy good for me. never knew i could do that. heart rate got up to 197 but that's another story. at least i didn't go into SVT this time.

Friday- happy birthday to me? I actually had the day off, it was a good break. I swam a pitiful 2500 yards of crap (didn't feel so hot and was so unmotivated) then went to the gym and lifted (WHAT?). i am attempted to prevent any swimming type problems this time around. the night ended with some wine and passing out early.

Saturday- 5.3 mile run around JP pond, which was still flooded but i hopped around the water. This actually felt great....held in the 8s for pacing. LOVE LOVE boston running.

Sunday- well i haven't done anything yet...i have been sitting at various panera breads typing up papers and shopping at REI (new pedals). sorry lisa poop i got rid of the cleats you gave me.

totals: bike 2 hours 45 min, run 7.8, swim 2500

not exactly a great week. actually, pretty pathetic. the next two weeks will be rough...40 hours of working and finals coming up. i should take advantage of my day off tomorrow.

on another note...please please please be careful riding outside. i witnessed a biker fatality from a bus on the road and my teammate just got hit too (hes ok...banged up..maybe a broken shoulder). the one time i have been out on the road i fell and almost got hit by cars...group rides to come. so wear your helmet. if you are in boston, don't let the massholes get you. if your somewhere else...well be careful.
