Week 1 was kind of horrible. I was doing battle with some nasty mix of a cold and allergies, so sleeping through the night didn't happen and training was minimal. I did manage to get out to the lake and finally swam my first full open water mile, so that made me happy. I really needed to get that done for my peace of mind before my first olympic tri later this moth - and obviously before Steelhead. Next on the swimming agenda is to get my ass in Lake Michigan for a swim.
Week 2 was a lot better. I was finally able to sleep through the night again, so that really helped a lot. Of course Mother Nature made running a little difficult since it kept storming! Mr. R&R and I actually had to turn back on a ride on Thursday night because there was fairly deep water flowing across the bike path!
I'm really happy that the bike feels good again. For a few weeks I was having a really hard time getting any speed on the bike and I couldn't stand being in aero for more than a minute or two at a time. I was really starting to worry.
I rode a solid 40 miles with Mr. R&R today and I wasn't that far behind him for the most part! The hour long run after that ride was another story. My legs did not want to cooperate. At least I have 6 more weeks to get it together!
