Ironman 70.3 Augusta Training Recap: Week 15

With Monday being a holiday from work I was able to go to our local outdoor pool. It was such a nice change from the YMCA indoor pool. The weather was absolutely perfect.

However, the weather didn’t hold out for Sunday and got the best of my long bike ride. I had planned to go out to the Suncoast Parkway for a 50 mile ride. As soon as I got to my exit the sky opened up into a terrible lightning storm. I drove home in awful rain and put my bike on the trainer. It’s just not the same though. I’ve come to really enjoy my long rides on Sunday.

This week really wore me out. I had a few evening events this week that cut into my sleep. By Sunday, I was exhausted.
