Week -34: All Sorts of Preparation

(27 February - 4 March)

A lot of time spent towards triathlon this week, but in more indirect ways.

Both of us were able to get in to the bike shop to get our triathlon positions dialed in. Unfortunately, it has been raining for every hour that we could otherwise be out trying out these new positions, but it's got to stop sometime.  In the meantime, Caroline tried on aero helmets:


Thoughts?

We also met with our massage therapist / coach and worked out a training plan to go forwards. It's going to be a busy summer:

(a typical week plan)

And then of course a night out "cross-training" (skate skiing).

In short, we're both feeling pretty good about where we are at right now. The rest of March will be split between:

A) putting in as many base miles as physically possible running and biking, as well as swimming for as many hours as we can stand
B) working as much overtime as psychologically possible so we don't have to do it this summer
C) packing up our house and getting ready to move

It's going to be a busy March, too.
