So I've been a little slow on the draw this week with keeping up with the blog posts. Here is what happened this week: Monday- spin class- great workout but not my favorite way to exercise! Tuesday, we trained at the Triangle Aquatic Center. It was just me and Cassandra and Coaches Tom and Joe. They tried working with me more on technique. Apparently, I pop my head out of the water too much especially when I take a breath. I cannot lie. I am concerned that popping it any less will result in inhaling large amounts of water of which I don't care to do. I took Wednesday off but knew I had to get a good run in Thursday. I have not run much during my training which needs to be addressed sooner than later! The good news is that it is my strongest part of the race but that doesn't mean I can slack off during the training. To be honest, we haven't done much running as a team. No one likes it but me. So, I ran for about 40 minutes yesterday in the 90 degree heat. Thankfully, I am not as bothered by heat either so I think I managed okay. I took my Nuun tablets with water for hydration. I like it better than gatorade. Not so sugary. Anyway, I have some anxiety about being able to pull all these events off consecutively but I am keeping the faith that we'll be ready. Saturday (tomorrow) is another bike/run and then Sunday is our first lake swim. I am kind of excited about that!
