Week 14 was another short week. Managing life with three busy kids, and a lovely adoring wife (Hi Heidi!) is more difficult than actually doing the training. Between Walk-a-thons, parties, church, Sunday School, and a Pinewood Derby, the weekend was over-booked. So I squeezed most of my workouts into the weekdays. Here's what I accomplished:
Mon., 3/30: Bike "Hill Session" on the trainer. A) it's pretty flat around here; B) I need Spring to actually arrive.
Tues., 3/31: Short swim session: 1300 yards.
Weds., 4/1: 1.5 mile endurance swim. According to the triathlon geek training plan, was supposed to be an open water swim -- not in Chicagoland.
Thurs., 4/2: Short treadmill run -- about 4 miles.
Fri., 4/2: 3 hours on the bike trainer. Mental focus....
Sat., 4/3: 10 mile run (this was supposed to be a brick workout with the 3 hours on the bike, no such luck this week).
Sun., 4/4: Off Day.
I really wish Spring would get here. Where's that global warming they've been promising me? When it started snowing on Sunday evening, my 3 (almost 4) year old chimed up, "Hey Mom, it's raining snow. What's up with that?" She was just voicing what we were all thinking.
