2 PM

Cycling - Trainer (fluid) (Baker Bike 11c) 1:13:07 [4] 22.8 mi (3:12 / mi)
ahr:135 max:155

warm up:
15 min easy
10 x 30 seconds spin over 100rpm, 30 sec easy

set 1: 2x (4x 3 min hard - best avg power) 3 min spin between each interval. 5 min spin between sets

Took a while to get warmed up on this. 
1st set done in 4th gear and not the best effort. Aimed for 95-98 rpm. Legs were tired & felt acidy when spinning high RPM's.

2nd set done in 5th gear and much better effort. Able to put in higher watts and hold it. Aimed for 87-90 rpm.

4 PM

Run - outside (Transition Run 20') 23:59 [1] * 4.13 km (5:48 / km)

7 AM

Run - Track (Descending Ladder) 1:07:38 [5] **** 11.3 km (5:59 / km)
ahr:150 max:167 shoes: Asics Gel Trainer 20 (Lime)

Warm up - 20 min plus a couple strides.
main set:
2x ( 2km on 10:30 min, 1 km on 5:15 min, 500m on 2: 30, 250m on 1:15) take 3-5 min between sets.
So this is a bit of a pacing workout...you can't go too hard bec it's not a lot of rest, but if you go too slow, you get even less rest:
For e.g., if you run the 2km in 9 min, you get 90 sec rest before starting the 1km...
10 min easy cool down

avg 1:15-1:11 per lap on the upper track of KSC.
Hard not to pick it up too much on the 2nd set and burn out.
