Update du jour: Been pretty busy at work today, so here's a quick update. No training today. My hamstrings were a bit sore from yesterday's workout (see below), so I decided to err on the side of caution and take a much-needed break. Tomorrow is a 50-mile bike ride. Wheeee!

Thursday evening's training was awesome! It was a bike-to-run transition class with Texas Iron. All we really did was ride the bike for a bit, then run. Then, we rested and did the circuit again. Oh yeah . . . and we warmed up with a slow run-to-bike warm-up. So, it went like this:

Warm-up: jog the run circuit (maybe 1 1/2 miles?), hop on bike and do the bike circuit easy (3 miles, maybe?)

Workout: do the bike circuit at "race pace," then hop off the bike, into running shoes, and go on the run circuit at race pace. Then, rest 10 minutes and repeat at race pace. It was tough! There were a couple of hills on the bike that just broke my legs!! But, it was great training.

Cool down: 5-10 minute jog.

I woke up this morning with very tight hamstrings. Lots of stretching and water today, but no training. Just need the rest!!!

More after tomorrow! Just waiting for Steve to call and tell me that the twins have arrived! Tick, tock!
