Swim, Lift, Sweat
Holy cats is it hot around here. Good thing I was basically inside all day. I always wonder how people who have to work outside survive days like this. Yikes.
Anyway, this morning I did a 3K swim workout including 20x100. I think 20x100 used to be my favorite main set but it has now turned into my least favorite main set. Boring. And I have trouble counting that high when I'm swimming. :) I survived just fine though. After the swim I headed to the weight room and lifted and that constituted my training for the day.
Tomorrow I won't be able to avoid the heat with a 3 hour ride and a transition run after that. The good news is that the forecast for Hamburg involves MUCH cooler weather - as in 50s and 60s. Now that's my kind of weather. Excellent for running although I will admit swimming in cold water in those temps and then getting on your bike and riding around at 22 mph sort of complicates things. Either way, I still say I prefer cooler weather for racing (even tris) than hot, hot, hot.
Nonetheless I have a lot to get done so I better go about getting started. It mostly involves making sure I have everything I need for our trip and making sure things are in order before I go. Four more days until liftoff! :)
