on the street just made butt jarring pain from the bottom to the top.
It was a "dry" day to cycle, meaning no rain. Been raining here for a
while. Wind was a killer! I started with kinda empty tank. Thighs
just have too much lactic Acid built up causing a bit of fatigue.
With going and coming we faced the wind, made the trip harder. I was
spent. I just couldn't move faster. Last week I could, not this
week. Strange though I felt fine everywhere else. Since iron-wife is
training for 70.3 Ironman race in two weeks, we went to the gym after
we got home. YES, the gym. I didn't realize I could still run. She
was running, of course but need lots of distraction. Fuel, fuel,
fuel... Not enough. We had power bar and Gel. Still.... 5000+
calories. So I stopped my run after 1/2 hour and distracted her
(while she was still running) with the Olympics Men's curling final.
Had to do some explanations about the game to her. We watched till
the last rock was thrown and the cheers. That was pretty much the
time she ran for 1 1/2 hours.
Today being the Lantern Festival here (Chinese Valentine's Day),
everywhere was busy. Fire crackers and fireworks. WE ate early!
Like 430pm. From this morning at 6am till 3pm, we had Gel, Gatorade,
water and the noodle. After the gym, we hit our veggie restaurant.
Now, we are all moaning from the soreness after a day of "work". I
actually had problem getting up from the day bed.
Same drill this weekend. It will be tougher as I will be running a
mini-training camp for iron-wife before Haikou (March 14th). I plan
on an overnight trip to get the mini-camp going..... Stay tune.
