Tried to finish my swim with a run…couldn’t even get a mile before I was walking. Legs were tight and couldn’t get good cadence. Mostly walked and realized that my tank was probably empty as I hadn’t eaten since 7am that morning. Even a gu didn’t help. Worked on race day strategy and enjoyed the sunshine!

Run (?)

Attempted 4 mi run.

Long Run

Set out to run 10 miles after our swim…practiced race day nutrition and it was good. Felt good until the last 1/2 mile or so, but was able to push it to get that last bit in and go 1 extra mile. I’m going to be ok race day, with the last 3 miles needing mental management.

It’s Fall outside

Thank goodness some of the humidity here in the PNW is gone today! I have had some sticky workouts lately…The cool thing about today’s run was all the leaves on the trail…something wonderful about the ’swish, swish’ of running through leaves. I am always glad to see fall…until winter starts to hint it’s coming. Just a reminder to enjoy it while I can.
