 | Roadbiking 1:23:00 [3] 20.0 mi (4:09 / mi) +550m 2:23 / km | |
| |
| Out to Cougar Mountain for the SRC Sunday run @ 7.30... left at 6 and was too early so I rode up to Cougar Peak to add some climb and time.. and on the way down (it had been raining the whole time) had to ride back up for a while twice since I got so cold I shivered uncontrollably.... tough outing... |
| Trail Run 1:55:54 [3] 11.5 mi (10:05 / mi) +450m 5:35 / km | |
| shoes: Brooks Cascadia Lime#1 |
| first run in a week.. been biking so much lately... legs were jello going up the first hill and never really recovered, but on the flats/down i was doing ok.. met murray and matt at the parking lot, murray added some, matt and i biked back.. |
| Roadbiking 1:15:00 [3] 21.0 mi (3:34 / mi) +200m 2:09 / km | |
| |
| with matt... great ride via east lake sammamish back... jello legs now... good satisfying week
|
| Note | |
| |
| felt better after some recoverite and rest and was going to head out with yumay for an inline session, but yumay chickened out (very unlike her, usually I am the whimpy one) and i was easily convinced, so we went for a 1h fast-ish walk instead.. not worthy of logging.... |
Saturday Mar 17 |
| Roadbiking 1:50:00 [3] 35.0 mi (3:08 / mi) +150m 1:56 / km | |
| |
| my "big" training day got reduced to kind of a joke... woke up ok, the we could not find yumay's bike shoes.. once we did and left i realized at mile 3 that i forgot my helmet... back, then changed our lake wash route to lake samm route, so i figured i ll go for a long MTB ride afterwards.... chain broke after 1mile, then back, replaced... then out agian and on the first hill realized the gears are all out of whack... so i just called it a day and it was not even midday yet... gee..

| Roadbiking (commute) 1:14:30 [3] 22.2 mi (3:21 / mi) +30m 2:05 / km | |
| |
| nice am ride... ruri came to my house at 6.30 from issaquah, our commutes overlap at about 40%, so i rode with him to bothell and then on to UW.. in kenmore i started laying down the hammer and despite the pretty bad headwind did the second half in 35min... since the wind was blowing pretty good it looked like the people i was passing were pedaling but not moving... the day off yesterday really helped... |
| Roadbiking (commute) 1:15:00 [2] 22.2 mi (3:22 / mi) +30m 2:05 / km | |
| |
| took it pretty easy on the way home until Ruri shot by me saying something insulting in scottish i am sure that i did not understand.. anyhow, picked up the pace to catch up wiht him and rode at a chatty but a bit faster pace... was nice having someone to ride with.... |
| Swimming 45:00 [3] 1.2 mi (37:29 / mi) | |
| |
| drills with tyler patterson (who swam once around lake washington in 37h last year!) and aaron vanderwaal... tyler had good suggestions and tips for my stroke mostly, my kick is weak but allright i guess... i was visibly faster after all the tips but also tired faster... shooting for about 15min/K at this time... a quite possible goal... |
Thursday Mar 15 |
| Swimming 40:00 [2] 1.5 km (26:40 / km) | |
| |
| 7.30am drills with julia,... good learning to erase some errors.. but new ones occur, will still be difficult for a while... |
| Note | |
| |
| left work all motivated going for a run.. but after the swim my legs were just too tired, even walking home felt tiring, so i made that excecutive decision to leave it out... |
Wednesday Mar 14 |
| Inlineskate (commute) 1:50:12 [2] 22.2 mi (4:57 / mi) +30m 3:04 / km | |
| |
| gorgeous day out, left a bit earlier to enjoy the sunshine on my way home... on way home met a really good skater, probably mid 50s, i looked like i was standing still and i was working pretty hard... tracked him down and talked to him about trainings, looks like i have to meet them regularly to learn some more skating skills.... |
Tuesday Mar 13 |
| Mountainbike (commute) 1:26:12 [2] 22.2 mi (3:53 / mi) +30m 2:24 / km | |
| |
| since the roadie is out of service i brought the bike... but that one needs a service as well.. kind of slow for a commute even for mtb but since i am doing back to backers it s ok... |
| Mountainbike (commute) 1:21:55 [3] 22.2 mi (3:42 / mi) +30m 2:17 / km | |
| |
| considerably higher effort... weird but for the last two weeks we have had severe winds towards the north, which always makes my horseshoe shaped commute a biotch for the 2nd part... today was ridiculous.. 1st part i averaged over 20mph, effort level maybe 2... second part i averaged 13mph, effort level 4, riding as hard as i can... |
Monday Mar 12 |
| Roadbiking (commute) 1:16:30 [2] 22.2 mi (3:25 / mi) +30m 2:08 / km | |
| |
| surprisingly slow for the effort... legs felt fresh after a full day off (well not really off, cleaned the house in a frenzy, grouted and sealed the bathrooms and did some powershopping with yumay, buying materials for the last, big bathroom) so I never ended up getting a minute to go out for a run... which was not too hard to resist due to the excessive rain all day... |
| Roadbiking (commute) 1:18:00 [2] 22.2 mi (3:30 / mi) +30m 2:10 / km | |
| |
| bike and rider out of whack... bottom bracket was misbehaving and i felt kind of demotivated so i just rode easy home... (Bike Commute #25) |
