Since Shamrock

Since returning home (to snow) from Shamrock 8k & half marathon, 70.3 training has started! Oh and, I've managed to come down with a cold. I'm pretty much over the cold at this point (fingers crossed!), but my training took a hit for sure.

This year, I'm going team-less. This also means coach-less. I think it'll be a good experience for me. I've combined the Trainer Road (cycling) half ironman low-volume plan, Swim Workouts for Triathletes (swimming) half ironman plan, and the Jeff Galloway (running) half marathon plan.

There are currently 4 swims, 3 bikes, 3 runs, and I have 2 weight lifting workouts per week. That's 12 workouts in 6 days. Meaning pretty much every day is a 2-a-day. I'll likely be getting rid of at least 1, if not 2, swims per week. It just doesn't seem all that doable to me!

On the nutrition front, we re-started Whole 30... and stopped it. Jon wanted to follow the program after he saw my success with it. Every day, he was telling me "it was my only cheat". He's obviously not ready mentally for Whole 30. So, we're working on making our diet Paleo when home & "treats" when out.

My new motto
