2-28-08 (9 of 92) Swim/Bike

Today was 35 minutes on the bike and 18 minutes in the water.

I did dailies first (push ups, sit ups, pull ups, supermans, dips) x2

Then I biked for 35 minutes (11.2 miles) - I had a wicked cramp in my left calf around mile 9. It was kind of funny, because I nearly fell off of a stationary bike trying to get my foot off the pedal and stretch it out.

Then I swam, and had the beginning of a cramp in my right foot somewhere around lap 3 or 4. I did 30 laps in 18 minutes. Still trying to go slowly. I need to try my nose plug again, so I can start to modify my breathing style. I need to be exhaling under water and just breaking the surface to breath - this will keep my head down longer and make me a faster swimmer.


I also started looking at half marathon training guides for the post triathlon months.
