Day 27

Another great feeling day. Killer workout, but I'll get to that in a sec. Let's go over the basics:

Breakfast - Denver bagel (Bacon, egg, cheese with green pepper and red onion) on a whole wheat bagel, Naked fruit smootie
Lunch - Parmesan crusted fish Lean Cuisine
Snack - Water & small bag of jerky
Dinner - Cookout at Matt's - Doritos and 2 turkey burgers with cheese. Many many beers...

So the beers aren't anything to gloat about, but I don't drink that often. Besides that the rest of the day was good!

Workout - Brick - 8.2 Mile Ride/1 Mile Run - Created an insane bike route from Station Two in Trumbull. I was going to ride from home, but people were coming to look at the house. Here's the route:



The hill up Strobel is INSANE. You think you're at the top and get a nice downhill, then there's ANOTHER up, then you have to get up Daniels Farm... Ugh, was long but good. I'll have to do this one again to gauge my hill performance.

Followed it up with a brick run on the treadmill - I kept it slow because my heart rate was just crazy when at a 12:00 mile (Over 150). I'm sure that's how it will be when I race, but I'm hoping with more training that will come down.

All in all a good day - was feeling the workout in my legs the next day!
