Late start, loss of training

STRENGTH: P90X Chest, Shoulders, & Triceps, then Abs
BIKE 50 mins and 14.4 miles

Time management sucked today. I got up around 5am but didn't get to the pain cave until about 630! What was I doing?! So after 1hr of P90X, I did what I had time for with the bike.

My legs are still shot from yesterday so I opted to shorten the bike instead of the strength. Tomorrow I have a 10 mile easy run so I'd like to be ready for that. After climbing the steps this morning, I reviewed my schedule of speed run Tuesday, Q bike Weds, long run Thurs. I have a lot of leg-intense training over these days, then you stack after that the Legs&Back P90X on Friday, long ride Saturday, trail run Sunday...my legs never get a chance to recover.

Fast forward a few mins to me trying to decide which DVD to play today: Monday's missed CS&T or today's B&B? I wondered about stacking 2 DVD's on Friday--the Legs & Back along with Back & Biceps. I did this recently and it worked. But then I had a moment of brilliance. Hey, why not skip L&B on Friday!? DUH!! Rest the legs AND get the B&B workout it. DUH!!

The bike was to one of my old CTS DVDs. The EN TP called for more 30/30...eh...boring.

I should also report that my ankle is just fine, hurts to touch but if I don't touch it I'm OK ;)
And my back is really improved, some tightness in a deep stretch and that's all. I heal fast :)

Compared to yesterday, my energy is much better this afternoon. But I'm still not drinking enough during the day. Water gets boring after awhile!
