Cycled 30.1 easy miles today. Came in at about 16 mph average and that was with 3 pretty big hill workouts (climbs) in there. Legs felt good and could have easily kept going for a while longer. The only thing was that it was mid to upper 80's and i could feel the heat coming up from the pavement.
Got home, got a drink, changed into my running gear, did a quick #1 and off for a 3.5 miler. Now, i've done a brick before, but none really serious. I usually putter around and take at least 15 - 20 minutes between my bike and run when i'm training, or do the run first, or wait hours while i sit down, have 3-4 sandwiches and play a game of MLB 2K6 on xbox (i'm 31-7 as the Toronto Blue Jays right now.)
This "transition" was about 5 minutes tops.
The run was tough. Hamstrings hurt and just felt like i ran out of gas. Came in at 25:11 which is a 7:11 mile pace, but still not good enough.
BLAST!
Just had dinner (mmm, pulled pork) and i'm heading to the pool in about an hour for 3,000 - 5,000 yards.
The Finger Lakes Tri is coming up fast!
