I have been really dedicated to my training the last couple of weeks. I hate to admit it, but I more focused this year over last year. I have decided to completely commit myself to this for the next six months.
I have made a huge realization with my swim. Instead of trying to go fast, I am completely focused on form. I have a long way to go, but I know the form will come. Feeling really optimistic and strong.
Ran the 10K last weekend in Salisbury. Not a PR, but included a beach run. Had the beach run not been there, no question it would have been a PR. Total time was 39:27 for an avg of 6:21. LY was 38:57. I lost roughly 40 seconds this yearon the beach, so I believe I would have been closer to 38:30. The beach not only slowed me down, it took a lot more out of my physically than I would have thought. I had a hard time getting up to speed after the beach. Overall still very happy though!
The bike is rocking. I have been really tenacious with not stopping early on the trainer. My avg power when I first got the power tap was around 150w on Aerobic rides and it is closer to 180 now. Huge improvement in 60 days.
