Accountability: 24 weeks GAME FACE

Hey guess what!? I'm doing a 24 week program for Ironman Brazil and it starts NOW!!

Monday, Dec 14, 2015: how is it the middle of December already? Giving the knee a night off. Cookie party at the shop though!! And Monday's are official weekly "rest days". Don't worry team, I'll rest when I'm dead. Muahhahhahhahahaha (evil Coach laugh)

Wednesday, Dec 16, 2015: was so hard to get out of bed this morning. Maybe I just needed that sleep. Spent the morning reviewing airport video and writing my account of what happened that awful day in Manhattan Airport. Headed to the Nat to swim since it's raining a few cats and dogs today...
Got in 1,500 meters before being asked to move for the swim team. As if I'm not paying to be here too!? Ugh!! A quick dinner and Blue Moon at Bonefish.

Thursday, Dec 17, 2015: massage + adjustment = OH SO GOOD!! And then hit the pool for another 1,600 meters of speeeeeeedwork. Felt so good to. Great workout: 350 warm up, 10 x 25 drills, 5 x 150 (50 easy, 25 hard), 10 x 25 kick, 350 cool down. I skipped the cool down. I'm already cool ;)
Sushi with Amanda, a few other errands, a quick photo shoot, and 1:20 on the bike trainer. More speeeeeedwork.

Friday, Dec 18, 2015: I picked up a shift for the guys in Slidell. I don't mind being in the shop and love working alongside Sarah, but man that drive sucks! The traffic and construction is ridiculous. And I'm certain it's against the law to use a turn signal on Gause Blvd. Ha! Later that night I attended the Gift, a production at Campground Church. It was cute. I could tell a lot of hard work was put into the show and what a fabulous stage/set up!!

Saturday, Dec 19, 2015: One of my favorite GCRC races, Pass to Bay 10k. Ran with a few Team TOA Elite athletes for our 6.2 + .8 miles of fun. Great pace and I accidentally placed 3rd in my age group. Woohoo!! Lunch at Hook + party at Sylvia's + dancing at the Beau - quite a night!!
RUN

Sunday, Dec 20, 2015: RECOVERY and a photo shoot with my friend Heather.

It wasn't an ideal week of training. I think with Christmas next week, I'm going to get a whole lot more done. Others will be busy with family and I'll be solo and putting in a ton of mileage. That's the plan anyway!! ;) ;)

Oh, and going into Whole30 SOON + the athlete's fix.
