Note

Spent the whole morning lifting heavy things and rearranging furniture as we finish up a basement reno (new home gym and rec space for the kids!). Back and hamstrings feeling it by lunch.
3 PM

Road Run 1:00:55 intensity: (28:28 @1) + (17:22 @2) + (10:10 @3) + (3:58 @4) + (57 @5) 6.02 mi (10:07 / mi) +306ft 9:39 / mi
ahr:138 max:170 shoes: Topo - Mtn Racer 1

First hours of a 36-hour snow storm - projected to be the biggest in five years! It was too gusty to go into the park, but the wind, blinding snow, and slick conditions added some fun adventure to the neighborhood loop. So many people had fire pits set up outside that the whole area smells like a campfire.

ahr:134 max:176 shoes: Hoka Rincon

When I first started racing, on sections when we slowed from running to trekking, one of my teammates - Bruce Wong - would be 50 meters ahead of the rest of us within about ten seconds. When I asked him his secret, he told me, "Set the treadmill to 5.0 and walk." For a number of years, I did trekking intervals that way, and it definitely helped increase my non-running pace and endurance.

This morning, on a planned two-hour trek, with 9 degree real feel and gusting winds, I channeled my inner Bruce.

Rest week recovery spin. I tried watching Bridgerton but couldn't get into it. Watched the first couple episodes of The Good Place instead. This one has potential.

Trainer malfunction. Zwift wasn’t picking up the programmed power setting - in or out of erg mode. Tried to troubleshoot it as I rode but just couldn’t sync it.

Note

Woke up today feeling like I could finally breathe.

One of my very first workouts with Jen was on Trump's inauguration day, and since then my training log has been littered with political distraction and angst. Guess what, guys? Hopefully you'll never have to see his name on my feed again.
7 PM

Bike - Roads (Zwift) 1:15:09 intensity: (2:33 @1) + (7:48 @2) + (49:25 @3) + (10:38 @4) + (4:45 @5) 19.64 mi (15.7 mph) +1696ft
ahr:139 max:177 shoes: Giant NRS FS (Brucemobile)

Long strength intervals. Went in with a "something is better than nothing" mentality and surprised myself by finishing the whole workout.

I mean, why not make the Trump presidency feel a little bit longer by waking up at 3:00am on inauguration day?

ahr:132 max:162 shoes: Hoka Rincon

6x1min bursts. Breathing felt a little bit ragged. I think I'm just so tired, on so many levels. Didn't expect coming down from the Trump presidency to feel quite so emotionally wrenching.

4x1min burst. Capping off a wholly unproductive work week with a double workout day; figured I might as well use the time to do SOMETHING constructive.

ahr:126 max:168 shoes: Giant NRS FS (Brucemobile)

Low power, high cadence and single-leg drills.

A hard weekend - we're having to put Phin down today, after a very abrupt decline over the last month. I needed something this morning that was focused without a huge energy output, so I swapped this ride scheduled for next week with today's planned run.

I've enjoyed being back to more formal training this week, but not unlike much of the last ten months, it's clear that it's going to be an exercise in adaptation...

I love our new weekend tradition of family adventures in spots we haven't explored in years. This one at Birdsboro Reservoir included quarry scrambling, carrying the kids across four knee-deep creek crossings, and many pups to pet.
7 PM

Focus on glutes should make tomorrow’s run fun.

ahr:129 max:160 shoes: La Sportiva Bushido II

Z2 hike/run, lots of freeze/thaw muck. Operating on fumes, but a nice energy boost after the hangover that has been this week. And fun to cross paths with Sandy for the first time in several months.

Also, my Garmin has been off the rails all day - turning on and off, resetting time, crazy HR swings with zero activity changes. Not sure of the accuracy of this data, other than time on my feet.
