Where’d My Week Go?!
Apparently, I’m an idiot and thought that I still had seven weeks left until IM Wisconsin, but I only have six! Egads. That’s one less week of base training that’s going to get done. Not that I think it’ll matter that much, but the fact that I didn’t account for an entire week of training this close to the race is well… scary. So it’s probably 2-1/2 weeks of base training with a 1/2 week of recovery. Then it’s peak, peak, and race weeks. Man this whole thing is just right around the corner!
What else? My friend Jon and I did manly car stuff a bunch on Saturday morning and afternoon. Then in the evening, Carol, Jon, his wife, Amy, and I all had dinner at Famous Dave’s and went to go watch Wedding Crashers. Dinner was yummy and while the movie started out a little slow, it got better towards the end. It’s not going to win any academy awards, but it was good for a dumb laugh.
I didn’t do an ounce of training all weekend and I don’t feel the slightest bit guilty either. I did get up this morning for my masters workout and am motivated to get back on my bike and get my running shoes back on, though. All that rest seems to have done me good! Now if I can only get my diet back in order… This weekend was another weekend of epic eating. I’m scared to weigh myself. :( And the Minnesota State Fair is right around the corner, too. That’s not good…
