Today's Workout

Team Bike and Swim

Bike Workout
Today's bike was pretty much all hills. We rode to the site where we just kept going up and down the same hill so we could get used to changing gears and keeping our cadence even. It was definitely the toughest ride we've had so far, but I felt pretty good at the end of it. It was damn hard to go up those hills, but I was apparantly able to do it without completely fatiguing my muscles.

Total Distance = 12.5 miles

Swim Workout
100 warmup
10 x 50 drills (15" rests)
50, 100, 200, 300, 200, 100, 50 (20" rests)
8 X 50 on 1' intervals (about 10" rests)
200 cooldown

Total Distance = 2200 yards

We had fewer people in the pro lanes this week which was nice. My arms felt tight while we were in the pyramid set. I'm not quite sure why this is happening. Perhaps I'm trying too hard. But the rest of my body doesn't really feel fatigued. I don't know. Guess I'll just continue what I'm doing. In fact, I may start doing a bike or run workout to replace one of the swim workouts.
