Wow!! Time sure flies! It has been just over a month since my last post... craziness! Instead of recapping everything that I have done, my training hours for the last few weeks are as follows:
Week of June 1: 13 Hours 30 minutes
Week June 8: 16 hours 20 minutes
Week of June 15: 18 hours 25 minutes
Week on June 22: 18 hours 15 minutes
This week's hours are sure to be in the 20 hour range because I am in a build phase. I started to run track and swim with my competitive swim club again. Here's to trying to stay injury free! :)
I have also cracked down on my diet. I am down to 155 lbs. I hope to be 150ish for my race in August. Reading Apolo Ohno's book 'Zero Regrets- Greater Than Yesterday' was very inspiring. I realized if I want all of my hard work in training to pay off, I also have to work hard at controlling what I put into my body so it can train harder and recover faster. :)
Next Friday I leave for France so my training will switch over to mostly cycling with some running for two weeks. I am hoping to bring some food along so I don't have to eat a lot of croissants! :D
