still torn...

about Arizona.

I'm hoping a weeks' rest and the completion of a very big project at work will help me to see the light with regard to whether or not it makes sense to keep working towards IMAZ or to revise my goals for the remainder of this season and look toward next.

I have considered doing Coeur d'Alene next June instead. Or not doing any IM until 2012 and making it a hat trick at LP.

I think I need a nice long run to get my head straight...

With regard to the damn repair, they're posting a weekly report:

Looks like progress is being made...

radio nowhere

4 a.m. conference call to bring 6 months of hard work to fruition
4 p.m. easy road bike ride with my husband
5 p.m. 4 pull ups

30 minute bike TT, 12 x 100 (4 @ 75% effort, 4 @ 85% effort, 4 @ 95% effort)

So notice I'm a little off plan — been picking and choosing based on what I think is best due to the hamstring/glute issue. Its feeling better, but not nearly 100%. I want to avoid any weighted squatting type movement until its 100% or I'll quickly be back to square one. I took a couple of days off this past week too just because life was too overwhelming with work and household stuff. Got to keep the priorities straight and also have to listen to the body and mind...


this morning
30 minute TT = 10.18 miles
20.4 MPH  AHR 139

later...

12 x 100 (4 @ 75% effort, 4 @ 85% effort, 4 @ 95% effort)

300 WU (6:11)

4x50 DR Catch up
8x25 DR Catch up w/PB

4x100 @ 75%e
(1:54, 1:57, 1:53, 1:56)

4x100 @ 85%e
(1:48, 1:51, 1:52, 1:51)

4x100 @ 95%e
(1:49, 1:50, 1:51, 1:52)

300 CD (6:14)

wow! not much to be gained by that extra 10% of effort...
