Had a strong week that I was actually pretty happy with. However, the past few weeks have been a blur of work, working out and also moving into an apartment. Recovery week coming right up for week 16. Still hurting a little from the weekend’s long workouts

This week concludes the first half of my season. As I have mentioned before, I am on a 24 week training plan for Great Floridian in October.
Looking back on the first 12 weeks, I know I need to keep working hard. I will start to incorporate a little bit more of focused workouts. I have done a decent job of using different workouts (intervals, steady state, endurance, recovery) but I can do a lot better, especially with biking and running. I also need to find races that will fit my schedule in August and September.
The race on Sunday was tough but also invigorating. It served as a great reminder of why I compete in the first place, to challenge myself. Last week overall was fun and focused. I enjoyed my Run-Swim-Run session on Wednesday and kept the momentum going through the race. I have stoked the figurative fire for the second half of the season. Gotta keep moving forward.
