Excellent week. It was good to be on vacation and spend time with family. Feeling re-energized and motivated. Nutrition was not great (I was on vacation, after all), but I burned a lot of calories this week. Bike ride on Saturday was my longest yet. Averaged over 17mph and did several big gear sets. Great chance to test nutrition. Need to find a way to eat more. Did gels and drinks and even a banana. May try some bars for added calories.
My swim was a superb experience. I'll share more on my race report post.
Not happy to have to go back to work this week, but happy to have work to go to.
Kia Kaha!
