I suspect we'll probably do a bit more looking around this week as G is off (YAY!) so we'll have much more free time. We're going to do some touristy things as well. Today we're off to St. Augustine to check it out. Later on this week G wants to try to get to Dunedin to see a Jay's game so fingers crossed that happens. If we manage that then we will have seen 3 of 4 Toronto teams while we've been here! We saw the Raptors play the Magic just after we got here and last Thursday we went into Tampa to see the Leafs play the Lightning. I'm happy to report that the Leafs CRUSHED them. That is the first Leaf game I've seen in a very long time. The last time I saw a game it was at Maple Leaf Gardens. Yeah, when I said a long time, I meant a LOONNNGGG time. We had really good seats and there were a TON of Leaf fans, probably due to it being March Break.
This was the first week I didn't really schedule much in terms of workouts. I've been playing things by ear since I've been down here, with a few goals for each week, but there's usually some structure to my week. This week, there wasn't much. All I knew was that I was going to take things easy this week as I was racing on Sunday. A cold front rolled in on Tuesday, stuck around until Friday and made it down right chilly here. And VERY windy. Which made riding not awesome. But I did it anyway because 1) I'm going to be back home in my basement before I know it and 2) I'm Canadian, what's a little cold??? I probably would have done my swim on Thursday morning with an on deck temperature of 4 degrees but the NTC closed the pool until 9:00 am so our swim got cancelled. I went out and did a ride mid morning and it was still only 9 degrees. It's amazing how cold that feels when your average daily temps are around 25 degrees. I admit it, I've gotten soft. I'm pretty sure I'm going to freeze when we get back home. Whawha.
So, let's get down to my week of training, shall we?
Monday: OFF
Thursday: 20.5km hilly, windy ride.
Friday: OFF
Saturday: 56km ride + 600m open water swim
Sunday: RACE: 1500m swim, 40km bike, 10km run. Report to come this week. If you've seen my Instagram post then you all know how that went. :)
Total Time: 10h 48 minutes
The next few days are all about recovery and some down time. A little sight seeing today is exactly what we need.
How was your week of training?
Some Monday humour for you......
Go out and BE AWESOME!
