What Week is It anyway

by Tyler @ Are We There Yet???
Well I have been slacking . . . not in my training, but in my blogging . . . guess I am better at training then writing . . . probably a good thing considering what I am trying to accomplish;)

This last week was a good one on paper but toward the end of the week I was feeling a bit fatigued, may be pushing a little to hard (big surprise there).

Monday - 5 mile recovery and strength circuit
Tuesday - spin and run @ the Basement
Wednesday - Track workout with the TEAM - Hard but totally fun workout - thanks Was!!
Thursday - Spin at Rob's - Just didn't feel into it, I think my legs were still tired from track
Friday - Well . . . so I decided to play a little pick up soccer and it is totally true what they say about specificity of training . . . I am not in soccer shape . . . not only did I blister my feet, but I strained muscles I didn't even know I had . . . needless to say I decided to skip my planned tempo run.
Saturday - So I woke up in worse condition then I went to sleep in . . . felt a cold coming on (I have a few friends and a few to many workouts to blame for that) . . . soccer was still kicking my butt . . . and I had made plans to do a 15 miler with Brenna . . . so I did what any good (meaning crazy) ironteamer would do . . . I showed up on time for our run . . . and glad I did. Perfect running weather and good company made the 15 miles fly by. Next stop our Iron University Strength training seminar.
Sunday - they say that the second day is the worst, "they" are totally right. Soccer is not for the weak. Anyway, off to Mountain View High for a swim and bike brick . . . let the good times roll. Workout was great, I felt much better in terms of my cold and my muscles after getting going. Absolutely beautiful morning, we couldn't have asked for a better day.

The aftermath. Hurting, tired and this cold is kicking my butt. I got some foam roller and streching to do before bed.

Write you next week (hopefully), same time same Iron channel.
