Computrainer is a whole ‘nother beast from spin. I’m riding with my friends again! It’s wonderful to be outside rather than stuck in spin class. Swim: My usual pool routine, but now that it’s (finally) getting warmer, I’ll be wriggling into my wetsuit (and 2 caps, and booties – it’s not THAT warm yet) and heading out to Walden Pond and Mystic Lake for some OWS.īike: Ramping up mileage so the 56-mile Patriot course won’t completely destroy me (it WILL destroy me, but I’ll pretend it won’t for the sake of saving face). It’s really helpful having someone tell me what to do.
It’s not as bad as I feared! I had a few sessions with a personal trainer (LOVE my trainer!), and I take some circuit-training type gym classes. So what else is new? In addition to the tried and true swim/bike/(hobble)run, I’m trying to do more regular weight-training. That feeling apparently lasted until I got home and whipped out my credit card to register. And that glorious feeling of being capable of doing anything when the session was over. So how did this crazy lapse in judgement occur? COMPUTRAINER! Evil. Usually cold, unless it’s a swim-only event. I’m not completely crazy – I’m doing the aquabike (since I don’t really run), but still: 1.2-mile swim + 56-mile bike is pretty ambitious for me! If you’ve read some of my earlier posts, you may recall that I run hot and cold about racing. Not just any event, but one of the bigger, more competitive races in my area: The Patriot Half IM.
In the throes of an endorphin-filled haze, I signed up for an event.
