Countdown to Lake Placid Ironman

I got behind on my diary - busy weekend, so here we are:

Roller work after run.

Fuzzy picture, but my hands were shaky - lots of running, which I LUV, but tired, which is good!

Day 124:

Bike: 5 min x 80 watts, warmup, 30 min x 110 watts, pre-run spin, 5 min x 50 watts warm down.

Run: 3 miles on the road, easy, but not too easy.

Day 125:

Recovery - just enjoyed the day, and walked the dogs, and had fun.

Day 126:

Danny Dryer

I met Danny Dryer one day, and he was the same guy as on his videos. Just a regular guy with no ego. I like that, and I like Chi-Running as an approach to low impact progression across the surface of planet Earth.

Run #1: 2 x 0.25-mile hill repeats, followed by calf roller work and hamstring stretching.

Swim: Easy 2,000 yards, x 500s, free, pull, free, pull, picking up the pace.

Run #2: 2-mile trail run, steady, focusing on soft feet. Felt good, followed by roller work.

Run #3: 3.5 miles through town, and it felt good, with soft feet, and essentially Chi Running, per Danny Dryer. Followed by roller work, and bed.

The run is returning.
