This is going to be the shortest #Bestfoot post ever. My last week of workouts consisted of the following:
Monday: I ran the freaking Boston Marathon (race report to come!)
Tuesday: I
Wednesday: I slept in the car on the way home.
Thursday: I slept in and celebrated 10 years of wedded bliss with G.
Friday: I dragged my butt out of bed and tried not to drown at swimming (swam 1300m)
Saturday: Lounged around on the couch drinking coffee in the morning. Had a massage in the afternoon after spending 3 hours sitting in traffic due to the closure of the Gardiner. It's amazing how cranky that can make a person.
Sunday: I was a shuttle driver, cheerleader & picture taker for G and my two friends that raced Paris to Ancaster. Did an easy 35 minute ride on my new saddle when I got back.
Total workouts this week
Swim: 1300m
Bike: 20.53km
Run: 42.2km
Total time: 4h 21 minutes of workouts. 3h and 21 minutes of that was my race, ha ha.
Now I have to mentally get my head back in the game and focus on the next 7 weeks of crazy to get ready for IM 70.3 Luxembourg. Ming and I were emailing yesterday and it looks like these next 7 weeks are going to be all about the bike. I'm still running 3x a week but 2 of those runs will be off the bike. I've got doubles almost every day now. I'm also going to his lab at U of T tomorrow night for some more testing. I'm a bit nervous about this as I suspect it will be quite unpleasant, ha ha.
Make sure you check out the other #Bestfoot ladies blogs this week: Krysten, Amanda & Ericka - there's been some pretty amazing stuff happening!
How was your week of training?

Great job in Boston and good luck with 70.3! I've never done a triathlon, I'm the spectator, but 70.3 is an awesome distance!!
Anxiously awaiting your race report! I have to live vicariously through my Boston running friends.
