BIKE COMMUTE total of 15 miles
STRENGTH 1:00
Monday was the holiday and even though I came to work for a bit I'm a day off. Today is Tuesday!
It's not helping that I did a long run yesterday, had PT today even though it was morning and not evening, I didn't run this morning and rested like a Monday, or that I'm generally confused to begin with!, and my week is already messed up with leaving town for the upcoming race.
PT felt good, very focused on one exercise at a time. JG asked how I'm feeling now compared to how I felt 3 months ago when I started. Thought about it, and said I feel more confident in my body, that I'm not hesitant to open a door or move something hefty, that I've learned that strength training can be a part of an endurance athlete's life. Didn't say this, but I've also learned that it's fun to talk nutrition and motivational strategies with a like-minded person, I enjoy learning about new foods (like today's taro chip conversation during leg press), and enjoy the laffs we get from The Others.
The cold weather spell has passed, getting back to hot and muggy. A peak into this weekends weather in Peoria for CMAR looks like some rain that way mid week but not the 90+ temps that are expected here. I'm waiting to see the final weather later this week before I get concerned, but it doesn't look like heat will be terribly much of an issue. And mud will depend on how much rain they actually get, again gotta see what happens in reality this week.
