COLD! Morning bridge loop run up on the shoreline trail. Looks like we'll get a couple freezing days here as just a heads up that winter is again on it's way.
I am officially only 3 weeks away from Ironman Florida. It is basically here. There is not much more I can do. I feel good about my fitness and I think as long as I get out for 3 or 4 40+ mile bike rides before it gets here I should do well. I would have liked to have completed a few more 100 milers in training but I'm optimistic my run training will compensate!
Rode on the trainer downstairs for 3 hours (Braveheart seems to never end). I have no speed data on the stationary but I'm thinking I was in the neighborhood of 20mph.
Then felt good so I went out for another run - just the 5 mile Porter Rockwell loop. Started a little slow but pretty soon was feeling really good...clocked a 6:49 2nd mile but slowed after that. Really needed some food & drink at that point. Drank nearly a full gallon of water during the bike workout.
