My training for today consisted of an 1:15 tempo ride. This was suppose to be at race intensity. Things didn't start good from the start. I didn't bring a bottle for water, so I had a bottled water with a screw on lid. This made it difficult to take a drink and maintain any sort of intensity. My second problem was that I forgot my watch, so I didn't know what my heart rate was. I am very dependent upon this, so I found myself either going too hard or too easy. After an hour of riding, I had all I wanted so I headed home.
My oldest son, Dalton age 8, is on an overnight field trip with his third grad class. Since we were minus one child, my wife and I took the other two (Gavin age 5 and Ansley age 4 months) grocery shopping. No one was out since the University of Louisville had a home football game. It was nice going to Wal-Mart and not having to fight the crowds.
I have two workouts tomorrow (swim and run) and a mini-sprint on Saturday. I only have two more weeks of training before my final race of the season in Lexington, Kentucky. I am ready to start my off-season training. I have gotten pretty skinny over the course of the year, so I need to hit the weights this winter.
