Friday BIKE 20 miles 3X TGP solo on the way to work, COMMUTE 4.2 miles home
Saturday & Sunday RUN 2.0 & 1.5 miles with LA
Quick weekend update. LA is here!! So Ima type this up fast, get to mouse house when it opens, then git home. Typing on Monday, so retro post.
LA drove in Thursday night and I kinda went stressball. I worry about him driving, we had a text conversation that was hard for me to interpret as he came close to IL, and me just being me -- got stressed. Near panic attack later that night while at the sushi place on Grand. Ugh, why.
Friday morning I'm having that stress hang-over I get, a weird sense of relief mixed with the let-off of those stress chemicals. It was only a near-attack I think because instead of getting upset with me (as in previous life) he just rolled with it. What a difference - instead of feeding the stress, starve it.
I needed to blow out this steam Friday morning, I was stressed about going to work while he waited and I didn't have much to do at work. So I'm sad to admit that on the way to work, I knew I had to get rid of this - and I did a 3X TGP ride on the way in. It worked. I felt better. Another drug hit.
The weekend was super restful, I only needed a total of 3.5 miles for my rest week conclusion, so we broke up my runs to fit his shorter daily runs. These were refreshing!
Sunday afternoon I took him to BRR SoCi to try on running shoes. I miss doing this, it turns out! Sure, I'm hesitant to spend money, but I can drop a lot of money in a store like that. I almost asked for another pair of the Adrenalines for me -- I'm running in the pair that LA bought for me, and now I can feel that my older pair really need replacement -- but I held off. I have such doubts, I don't know why!
Part of those doubts - I still haven't registered for MO' Cowbell Double Chuck 13.1 and 26.2. Last week I said I'll see how the Thursday run went. Went great - mild niggle in the right lateral hip/glut med area. Now this week I want to see how this weekend's 10 miler goes before I decide. 10 MILE RUN!!
Remember your first ever 10 mile run, in about 2005? or 2006? in CCP? Wow, here I am again.
Rest Week NUMERICS: 5:30 hours, not including commute times
SWIM 800 yards, 1 swim
BIKE 40.3 miles twice #x TGP
RUN 14 miles, exactly on plan and felt great
COMMUTE only 13.4 miles? I double checked, I guess so.
