I’m finally in the rest week of my 5 week base block. While its good to rest now, last week was a bit of a beast training wise (just under 21 hours). My biggest day was Saturday, which included a 4 hour 27 minute trainer ride, an hour long run and several hours prep for this week Greater Hartford 1/4 Marathon (I’m he race director). Here’s how my Saturday played out:
Attaching B-tag to the back of 500 race bibs.
Baking cookies for the post-race spread.
Off to run. 60 Minutes at Z1 (about 7 miles).
Back home. Chocolate chip panckaes for Shaun.
Almond flour pancakes for me.
Kitten watching us eat.
L-o-n-g time on the trainer (4:27 on the IMKY course).
The downstairs bike family. Shaun worked on my CD.01 while I rode.
Post-bike (and post-shower) meal — turkey bruger, sweet potato and spinach.
Stuffing eggs for the 1/4 Marathon egg hunt.
500 stuffed eggs.
All in all a long day. Hopefully the traing pays off at the Danbury Half Marathon this weekend and the prepping pays off at the 1/4 Marathon.
