Week 5 - 8/28 through 9/3
This was a rest week. We only had to put in 8 hours of training. The idea was to use the week as a recovery from the previous week. I started the week off with a massage. I definitely want to be more regular with the use of massage and some adjustments this time around. It was a great way to start the week. On a side note, I have to say that one of the reasons that I enjoy this sport so much is because of the number of people who I come across who have set some really lofty goals. My massage therapist is getting ready to go to Colorado for a 50 KM trail run. This is huge. I think that it is incredible that we are seeing really average people , plan and do something spectacular. Yeah for them.
The week was a good one for training. Even though it was supposed to gave been a rest week,, it was a good training week.
I got my first good open water swim in this week. On Saturday morning, I swam for 1600 meters before going on the weekly bike ride. Speaking of goals,, I ran into Bruce K and he introduced me to some of his friends. Bruce is doing the swim form Alcatraz and his friend is swimming for 7 miles. Like I said,, great goals for people to work towards.
