Yes!!! After being a little dissapointed about not getting 6 hour in yesterday (nonetheless I was sore for all the climbing-and we probably got more quality out of less quantity yesterday), I got in my 6 hours today. Probably a little less climbing today, but overall just a good ride. I finished with some hill repeats for a half hour at the 5:30 mark. It was great to still feel pretty fresh at that point in the workout.
I very happy with where I am right now. Regardless of not running, I feel that my overall fitness is very good. I'm leaps and bounds ahead of where I was this time last year. I believe the run will come along quickly now that I'm back into somewhat of a "normal" training routine again.
Tomorrow is a rest day and I'm toying with the idea of getting in a little more time on the bike. Nothing near what today or yesterday was, but it might just be a good idea to spin the legs for 90 mins-2 hours. If I'm totally toasted I'll probably just hit the pool for a bit. The rest of the week will be devoted to getting in a good little taper before the Spain training camp. Only a few more days now!
This is our new blog detailing our daily adventures, mountain bike racing, endurance sports, and maybe even some cooking (that's Anne's domain!). We will share our experiences with life, training, and most importantly, being a team-both in marriage and in our sport.
