Running 1:30:00 [3] 11.2 mi (8:02 / mi)
Ran along W Lake Sammamish... went easier at first and then steadily increased the pace. One of the better feeling runs I've had in the past two weeks... the pace felt comfortable, even at the end.
Swimming 1:05:00 [3]
Kitchen sink workout today: 200 WU, then 4 x 400 @ 7:20 (1:50 pace), :40 RI, then some drills: catch progression (one hand fist, one hand regular, two hand fist, two hand regular, repeat but switch sides for one handed sections, by 25s), catch up drill and FQS work, then 3 x 400 @ 7:00 (1:45 pace), 1' RI, and then some light laps to cool down. Nice workout and felt good!
Note
Feeling great about last week and heading into this week... I want to keep the intensity and volume high before I head into my taper and rest. Nutrition is good: it'll be important to keep the protein and CHO intake after workouts for proper recovery (aiming for ~16-18g and 55g respectively, based on current weight of 130lb). Still working the TP almost every day, especially keeping the IT and calves loose. Overall, I feel pretty good about where I'm at in my preparation.
Biking hills 31:00 [5] 5.0 mi (9.7 mph)
