Week Seven Re-Cap

Last week of Base 1 before rest week!!!! I can actually say I started this week out healthy for the most part for 2 days now...until my coworker came back from her 2-week vacation sick! By Wednesday, I had to call in. Luckily, it was my rest day. I picked it back up by thursday, even though I would rate my health a 4/10. Went to the gym for the 55 minute hill intensity run telling myself I'll do what I can. I ended up doing great and even staying for my 30 minute strength workout. And, I even got up for swim practice friday morning at 4:30!! Not bad. Yes, I did skip the 40 minute friday bike again. It was optional.

A couple of noteworthy developments: no malodextrin for me in nutrition/Hammer products (at least I tried it in practice on not on a race course!), Tarzan drill in swimming is my least favorite (for the second week now), and I hit my longest run since November (10.5 miles in 90 minutes) at a record pace in the cold on Sunday as the finale to the most challenging 4-week Base 1 to date! And, I somehow managed to start feeling better for the first time in one month! Woot!
