You may notice this week’s summary is missing a couple days. That’s because I’m riding Levi’s Gran Fondo tomorrow and I think it will be worthy of its own post. Stay tuned for a photo-centric recap of my 103 mile (and 9,000 ft of climbing) ride through Sonoma County. Hopefully, I will HTFU and make it to the finish!
In preparation for the ride, I gave my road bike (The Sixy Beast) some much-needed TLC. I gave him a sponge bath, replaced his chain, and lubed him up real good 😉
The Beast back in the day, when he was the only bike in my life and still had reflectors on his wheels…
Week 3 (9/30/2013 – 10/4/2013)
Monday:
Lot of stretching and rolling because everything was feeling..
Tuesday:
Called in sick at work, stayed in bed all day.
Rallied a bit in the evening and did some upper body and core strengthening.
Wednesday:
Run 4.5 miles
Swim 2,000 yards. Lots of drills and focus on bilateral breathing.
Thursday:
Bike 1 hour on trainer + planks and bridges
Friday:
Run 3 miles + core strength
It’s too late to wish you good luck with all that climbing, I just know it will be easier without those reflectors weighing you down. Looking forward to hearing how it went, it dounds like a great event.
