Ran with Hubby nice and easy. Wore my Vff's which I am not used to but they felt fine the entire run. It was super hot and I carried water to drink, which I never used to do in my rookie days of running. Now with increasing numbers of workouts I need to keep up with hydration and fuel so I can feel good the next workout!

Drove out to Midway to ride the BAM course I will be racing Aug 7th. I will be doing the Olympic Distance. The elevation is only slightly higher than where I am now..I am at 4850ft. And Midway is 5423 where I started. It was nice and COOL which I like..at 8:30a.m. This course was nuts tho..I had estimated something crazy like 10 turns on the course but just now looked and there are about 20 turns. Way to slow the momentum down..haha. 24.48miles

Walked a few miles in the Evening. 2 to be exact.

Coach Heath invited me to Bike Alpine loop with him and Sarah, Nate, and Spencer. They are all VERY fast and strong cyclists. Why he invited me I do not know. I was excited to do it, I had never rode it before. After about 13.5 miles with the group I started feeling faint and was worried I would get to the point of extreme fatigue and need to be picked up. So I turned around just a mile or two past Timp Cave Monument and went back home. It was also 97 Plus Degrees! (1pm, we started) Eeee. I want to do Alpine loop again but after my next race, on Aug 7th. I will start at 5:30am since I am not acclimated to the heat whatsoever. 29.74miles 

Had just a few hours to refuel and hit the Track for a group workout. I did a 1.25mile wu, then:

3x800 @ 33:17, 3:06, 3:11 

2x400 @ 1:20, 1:20

3x800 @ 3:11, 3:12, 3:07

Then just a little .25mi wd.

Total time 35:49 

Had great energy for this workout despite the heat, but then the efforts were short in duration, so not too big a deal. :D

Easy recovery Swim today. 2500yds. Had a 500yd wu followed by 1x50, 1x100, 1x150, 1x200. Repeat 4x. Still feeling Saturdays race, combined with, this weeks workouts, combined with my general low energy levels. So it was really nice to chill in the pool with no time requirements. :D

Wen't back to the gym later (8pm) for Weights. I haven't done any seriously since November, and felt really great doing it...super pumped. Probably led to sleep problems later! I worked chest and arms but cut it short to be on the safe side. So GOOD to be back at the weights. I really need to make it a priority. Makes me feel complete.

Was going to run a 12 miler early this a.m., but I was only able to sleep from 1:30a.m. to 3:30a.m. Very fitful night. Got tired just about 5:30a.m. when I was supposed to be running already. So impromptu rest day. I will run tomorrow instead, Let's hope for feeling great. :D

Oh, I did foam roll my legs and golf ball my feet. That was good.
