Week 1 of the 6 week build up has come and gone. I used this particular workout program before the CB&I and I liked the layout of it. I usually change it up a little bit but I like how the 3 disciplines are done through out the week.
This week:
Tues- Swim: 400m. 25 minutes total of which 400m was consecutive free style. This time around I am trying to concentrate on the Free Style motion when swimming. When training for the CB&I I was just trying to get through it and was mixing in breast stroke too. So Tuesday was a big step to go 400m free style consecutively.
Wed- Run: 20 minute Aerobic. Nice and easy morning run. Also did some core work after with some stretching.
Thurs- Swim: 4x150m. Bike: 40' I went to the CISD Natatorium in the Woodlands to get my 2nd swim of the week in. The Natatorium is open various times throughout the week for open swimming. I wanted to go swim at "The Nat" to swim 50m lengths. But one of the local high schools had a morning summer workout going and I wasn't able to swim in the 50m lanes but I was able to swim nonetheless. I actually was happy with my times of the 150m sets. averaging 3:10 per set, which is good for me.... Oh and I got a bike ride in too. I did about a 40 minute ride. Included some hills that challenged me a little. Averaged about 17 mph which was a little slow but since a lot of it was Hills I am ok with it.
Fri- Brick: 20' bike 10' run. Stationary bike to Treadmill run. Nothing big about this but was a good end to the workouts of the week.
Rested this weekend and I will pick it back up on Monday. It feels good to get back to training with a purpose!
