This training plan is going to kill me!!! My last rest day was February 21st and my next one isn't scheduled until March 25th.
Since I last posted I have done:
1 hour Spinerval DVD
6 mile tempo run
45 minute trainer ride
18 mile treadmill run
61.25 mile bike outside
1 hour trainer ride
Just typing it make me tired all over.
The weather here has been all over the place. Wednesday I ran in the snow. It was a tempo run and I wasn't able to run as fast as I should have because of the ice.
Then Friday it was raining. The forecast didn't show any end in sight so I went to the Rec Center. I can't even tell you last time I ran inside. I debated between the track and the treadmill. I finally decided that I could not deal with having to run around all the social walkers and grabbed the only open treadmill. 18 miles and a reminder of just how much I hate running inside.
Saturday was beautiful out. I had a 4 hour ride on schedule and was glad to be able to ride outside. It was a little windy but the sun felt great. I rode 61.25 miles in 3:52:52. At that point I was home and could NOT sit on that bike a second longer.
It is beautiful again today but Ronnie was golfing so I did my one hour ride inside on the trainer.
It is suppose to start raining tomorrow and I even heard snowing on Tuesday. Looks like I still have some inside training ahead.

I feel your pain. I am in India right now...and did 13 on the treadmill on Sunday...and it was hot, hot, hot (96)...I never thought I was gonna survive. You're putting in good training for the IM though...Congrats!!

I love the new look! Nice job on the workout!
I can't imagine 18 miles on the treadmill! You deserve a metal!
Don't tell me, let me guess.
Something is different.
Is that a new shirt?
New shoes?
I got it,
New haircut?
See, and women think men don't notice things like that.
I like the new haircut.
What?
No new haircut?
Hmmm, what's different?
Love the new look of things.
Holy crap!!! 18 miles on the treadmill?
Awesome workouts! Love the new blog look!
way to put in the hours m; 18 on the treadmil - wow!
Oh my gosh! 18 miles on the treadmill. I am SO serious that you are my hero! And I can't believe you don't have a rest day for a month - THAT would totally kill me!
I like the new look and the new blog name. :-)
Cool new look Michele! And holy crap, that is an intense schedule. Good thing you are so hard core. :)
18 on a dreadmill?!?! Holy mental toughness on that one!
Whoa...what plan doesn't have a rest day for a month? Yikes! Be careful that you don't get injured...is there one day that's at least some yoga or easy zone 1 stuff? I just know I lived for my weekly rest day! Maybe I'm a wuss. :)
I'm glad Sara said something. I can't imagine a reputable plan with more than a month between rest/recovery days. Vigourous training puts a toll on the body that requires rest. Still, you're an animal. 18 miles on the treadmill, YIKES!
