Weekend of Workouts


I did get a successful run in yesterday and didn't hurt myself. The ankle was fine, not 100% yet but good enough. No pain in the ankle while running today.



I was at my parents house and they have a paved greenway trail that is partly shaded that I have run on before. It was 78 degrees at the start, yuck. I started a bit gingerly, not knowing exactly how my ankle would feel, but about 10 minutes in I was able to develop a rhythm. After 4 cycles I turned around. It’s mostly downhill on the way out so I had to deal with the uphill on the way back.

So overall, happy with the run yesterday. It was slow, but about what I expected.

Today I rode the bike and run course for my race next weekend. With only HR to gage things right now I was shooting for something in the low 150's.


I didn't do the bike portion at race pace but I did push it a bit. My goal for the race is 1:08 for the bike today I did it in about 1:11 so not too bad.

Once I finished the bike course I just continued riding on the run course which is a simple out and back on the same road, just opposite direction at a bit more relaxed pace. My knee seems to be doing well on the bike, the fit and sit bones are still an issue but getting better.

So a good ride today.
