So I got up and swam (again). Isn’t that what most triathletes
do? Today, I started the morning with a 4K swim. The pool was so crowded it
had just about 5 people to a lane and I actually had to wait around a bit to be
able to hop in. I am not going to lie, just about EVERYONE looked like they
could go to the Olympics and throw it down with Katie Ledecky or Michael
Phelps. Even though I try really hard to not let that get to me, I would lie if
it didn’t frustrate me a bit.
Siri putting her athletes to work!
Post run, I had a mega breakfast, chilled on the patio again
while doing some work, and met a new friend!
Hello Mr. Geico ;) He even posed for me (I then gave him jelly)
I then did a 4.5 mile lunch time run, and I got to do a
Levelen sweat test as well. It was definitely in the heat of the day, and although I have
adapated quite well and my HR is back down to normal ranges I am used to seeing
back in Boston, I am still quite the sweat machine!
I drank 8oz of water in
the 34 min I ran, and I lost 3.1lbs! WHAT? Thanks to Levelen I also know how salty of a sweater I am, and
how much electrolytes I should be taking in throughout the race. If you are interested
in learning more, I am AND they are here for ya! Comment or send me a message, this really is good stuff to know!
I then re-fueled with another round of Poke from Da Poke
shack! That place is just amazing! And I did follow that up with this goodness from
Lava Java!
Chocolate, peanut butter, oat mango coconut cookie! To seriously die for!
I watched another amazing sunset from the patio, and for dinner I
had marinated steak tips with rice and asparagus! Gone before I thought about
taking a picture! Oops!
Tomorrow is one last long(ish) ride before the big day! I
packed it in early to get quality sleep while of course getting one last 30 min
session in my Elevated Legs.
Squeeze me!
