I hope everyone had a great weekend! Over here in sunny-land the weekend was fabulous. On Friday we went to a wedding – a very good friend that I’ve known since 5th grade got married. I love going to weddings because I feel like they’re such happy occasions that you could never had a bad time!
This wedding was especially fun – I ate lots of amazing food and had a great time catching up with old friends. There was also a photo booth, which I’d never seen before at a wedding, and it was pretty awesome. There were lots of goofy costumes for people to wear, and we took a lot of silly pics.
We spent the rest of the weekend with family, and I got home late Sunday night and totally passed out.
I didn’t do much in terms of tri-training over the weekend, but I did get in a 35 minute run on Friday.
Overall, my first week of training looked something like this:
Monday: 20 minute swim, 25 minute run
Tuesday: Strength Training (10 minute incline walk on treadmill, 10 min stairmaster, abs and weights)
Wednesday: 45 minute bike and strength training (abs, weights, squats, lunges)
Thursday: 30 minute swim, 30 minute run
Friday: 35 minute run (about 3.5 miles)
I feel pretty good so far, and think I can definitely complete the tri distance, but still need to get a bit stronger on the bike and with my swimming.
This week I hope to start looking at tri suits (after reading a bunch of reviews and talking with my friend this weekend, I think it’s best for me to get one), and maybe get new goggles.
Today I’m up for some strength training after work!
