I saw this dead roach while riding my trainer today. You have to admire the order, or suborder, known as roaches, for their persistence and apparent intelligence. They never give up.
Countdown to Lake Placid Ironman
Easy week. Nice workouts today, integrating easy bike with easy run.
Workouts:
Bike: on trainer, 5 min x 80 watts warmup, 1 hour x 110 watts, 5 min x 50 watts warm down. I noticed that my cadence drift slowly up from mid-70s, to 90 to 98 during the hour at 110 watts. I also noticed a dead roach as I was sitting there, which reminded me of a great book, “The Roaches Have No King.“
Run #1: off the bike in the morning, 2.5 miles steady on trails, with minor pickups, focusing on relaxed style.
Run #2: Evening trail run, legs a bit shot, so I walked when it felt necessary, but covered 4.5 miles, feeling fine. Just need plenty more run conditioning, basically.
Happy Trails.
