Well, I survived the Holidays and managed to lose weight! I was down to 105 yesterday but indulged with heaping plates of nachos to hide my tears of shame while watching the Lions inevitably blow yet another game to the Packers. I only worked two days last week so it was a great week for training (bike and run at least). I could get used to these 5 day weekends!
Weight - 207.6 (down .4). This will drop 2 pounds within the next day or two so I'm not concerned that it was a small drop. My goal for December was 5 pounds and I am already down 6.4 so anything else will just be gravy (healthy, low fat, and probably tasteless gravy).
Swim - Nonexistent, but by choice. I'm not sure if I even want to head to the pool next week with influx of the resolution crowd.
Bike - 4 Rides, all Sufferfest videos totaling 4 hours and 40 minutes and approximately 61.79 miles. The mileage figure is low as I know I average more than 13 mph. I am working with the folks at Trainer Road to see if we can fix that as I would like to track mileage for 2015 and it's hard knowing that 3-4 months worth or riding is underestimated. This was my longest trainer ride to date (1:52). I definitely need better shorts/bibs.
Run - 6 runs totaling 3 hours and 20 minutes, 19.57 miles. My running went great this week and I was even able to get outside... in shorts... in late December... in MI! I will stick with 20 miles next week, 3 runs of 2 miles, 2 runs of 4 miles, and a long run of 6. I'm well on my way to the 30 - 35 mile weeks I would like to have for the majority if the year. I've already noticed an improvement on the Barry P plan as my long run pace was around 10:13 for 6 miles with an average HR of 150, which is low to mid zone 2.
