Training for an Ironman is tricky when the weather is frigid. Fortunately, my generous husband rounded up a trainer for me, so I can get my rides done indoors. Swimming is not a problem...except for the part where I have to peel off twenty layers to get my swimsuit on and hop in the water...brrr. Running is where the rub is. I don't have a treadmill, nor do I have easy access to one, nor do I want one. I want to run outside every chance I get because it cleans me out: body, mind and soul. Since the warm up is supposed to happen tomorrow I will pile my three scheduled runs into the next three days. Not a biggie at this point, just so grateful to have other options and Yaktrax.
So far this week I have completed two bike rides (in the basement) and one swim. Left on the docket is: another swim, two runs (6.5 and 4 miles), and a brick (28 mile ride/5.5 mile run). There you have my next three days where workouts go....then I'm done with week #10...a quarter of the way through. Time is flying!
Enjoy the day, stay warm everyone!
