This weekend I got a heavy does of biking and ran short of running goals. About to make up some running mileage right now.
My intention was to pre-plan for getting in what I need to this week with the hope of running outdoors - in shorts- while in Vegas- two mornings! However the weather may prevent me from getting to the airport or getting off the ground.
I hit intensity hard on Sat and Sunday and then finished the bike Sunday with the two-hour limit and a brick to short run. Even so, made it for the Super Bowl!
I've got more red meat in me than usual- weekly I've had at least two or three red meat meals and I think it's just necessary for doing the kind of endurance that its going to take. I've got an Irish lamb stew recipe that is slowcooker friendly and is even 'clean'- so that helps a lot. If its something I can get Dusty to eat, so much the better. He's not tired of it yet! Lamb is surprisingly more tender than beef and we both like it better.
I'm behind on swimming but am going to let that worry go until the weather makes it a bit easier to get in regularly- shoveling takes its toll on my time and I can't fit it all in. Another four weeks still gives me plenty of time to ramp up and I can keep the minimum swim times and then give it more attention in a month.
Time to hit the treadmill now!
