If You Never Tri, You'll Never Know!

Ironman Italy Week 9

Monday, July 3, 2017 - early morning travel from Norway back to Italy. Please someone remind me NEVER to schedule travel at 6am the morning after a race. We could have slept another 12 hours and/but/plus our legs aren't working very well!!!
REST

Tuesday, July 4, 2017 - please don't make me train today *hear Lisa crying in the background* I'm so stiff and sore... I think it's going to be a rest day instead of a recovery swim...
REST

Wednesday, July 5, 2017- it's no secret! Traveling to the states!!!! Longest flight ever.
TRAVEL

Thursday, July 6, 2017 - up early in LA for a run to FedEx. I'm literally RUNNING errands today. Ha ha ha ha ha!! Near 4 miles and it felt pretty good considering my 70.3 Sunday. Met with the Italian Consulate and flew to AZ.
RUN

Friday, July 7, 2017 - OH MY GOD, Arizona is the sun. It's over 120 degrees here today! The steering wheel burnt me!! I'm not kidding! I did a ST workout at the house and I'm totally avoiding the pool, it's going to be BATH WATER :O How do people live here during the summer!?
ST

Saturday, July 8, 2017 - my clock is so messed up. I was in bed last night by 7pm and up at 4am. Grr. I also realized I didn't do any training. What is going on with me!? I did pick up mom and Bob from the airport. Oh, and I found a $400 bike case for $60!! SCORE! I think jet lag from a week of travel has caught me. 8 airplanes in less than a weeks time. If not for this blog, I don't even know what day it is!?
CONFUSED

Sunday, July 9, 2017 - 30 mile bike with mom. Felt good to be moving (lazy butt) and I felt really comfortable on my road bike. Which I'm totally psyched about since she'll be returning to Italy with me so I can 1) race in the local tri's and 2) battle those mountains!!
BIKE

I promise I'll get my shit together next week!! I have a huge week of swims, bikes, and runs. I got this!!
