Made it through the first build cycle!

Woo hoo!!!  Just wrapped up another amazing week of training and week three of my first build block for Challenge Florida!  All in all it was a pretty good week, with some great results.  It was hard though. Middle of the week I was feeling it and was getting tired.  Mother Nature cancelled a swim on me and a home conflict got in the way of another.  Still, I'm really happy where I'm at right now.

This weeks highlights:

Jenni is starting to give me a little speedwork on the run and it's paying off. Miss hard, but I'm enjoying it.  

I'm also playing around with my run/walk process.  Nothing to speak of yet, but so far, so good.

I enjoyed a lovely, quiet, isolated swim Friday morning in the 50 meter at 5 am.  No swim teams, no other regulars, just me under the lights.

Saturday's EPIC bike ride!  I had a planned 3 hour ride and the best I've done at hitting 50 miles during a 3 hour ride was 3:02.  I hit the 50 in 2:52!!!   Woo hoo!!!

Things I still have to work on.  My diet.  Gah,  middle section...hrmmf.  Not going to self hate.  Just making a note to improve.

Have a great training week readers!  I have a very down week, but there's a time trial and a MAF test to do!
