Since my last post I have been very busy both flying and training. I took Monday off and it was great. Resting is just as important as swimming, biking and running. On Tuesday I bit off just a little more than I should have. I started the day doing crossfit. 5 rounds for time of: 3 snatches, 5 chest to bar pullups (my snatches turned into power snatches followed by an overhead squat). I used 95 lbs and my time was 5:06. It was a fast but painful workout.

My next workout was a brick. I rode my bike for 45 minutes and then did a quick change for a 30 minute run. I have no idea how far I went because my GPS watch is not working right now. I felt good on both the bike and run.

Now this is where I should have stopped and had a really big meal. But I didn't!! I went to the pool and started doing my swim workout. About halfway through the swim workout I was completely dead with no energy at all. I had to concede my swim and get some food in my body. I did complete 1600 meters before I bonked.

Today I'm feeling much better. I got up this morning and did a crossfit workout. 4x3 push presses (115 lbs, 135 lbs, 155 lbs, 1x165 lbs) then we did 5 rnds for time of: 35 squats, 15 chesties, 15 pushups. The chesties are done with your feet in rings about 6 inches off the floor. You start in the push up position and then bring your knees to your chest. The pushups were done with your feet in the rings. My time was 9:00 and it sucked.

I took a bit of time off after that before doing a good old fashion crossfit endurance run. I did 5 x 800 meters with 90 second recovers. I covered the 2.5 miles in 15:15 minutes minus the 90 second recovers. It was a good workout and I felt great.

Now I'm finishing up here in Ft. Walton Beach, FL. I have about 2 hours to catch my flight and get back to my ladies.

Have a great day!
