two months and one day before Cozumel
Posted in Racing by AC MorganAfter either biking or running for ten consecutive days in a row I got home to do a six hour ride on Saturday morning. Mind you I had only gotten 4.5 hours of sleep that night. I rode at 4:30 to eat and get on the indoor trainer by 5am. I biked for two hours and meet up with my next door neighbor at 7am for a 4 hour additional ride. By the time the third hour came I knew my body was shot. I was forced to pull over at SBUX and get a double espresso shot. I completed the six hour ride. Stretched, took a bath, and put on my compression pants and was off to teach my daughters soccer game – half a sleep mind you. The next morning I need to swim and give my legs a day off from the pounding. I tied one of my kids “noodles” to a rode tied to my waste, put on my brightest orange cap and did a 2m open water swim in Long Island Sound solo. I know not so bright, but I could not find a buddy and I have been slacking on swimming. It was a little spooky solo. I guess what I am trying to say is with only two months left - training for this event is taking over my life and some may add my better judgement.
I am off to bed because I have a 3:45am run before work.
