Day 24

So It's been the 3rd day in a row training and have not had a break. One more tomorrow and I'm off from training all weekend (only because I'm working). My legs have been so sore this week. This is because I have increased my training load.

Today's breakdown:
  • Swam for 45 mins. and still concentrated in walking the zipper drill and focusing on the "catch." It is when you feel like you have a big ball of water under your lead hand then stroking it back soon as the other hand goes in.
  • Cycled for 35 mins. With a few climbs, and sprints included.
  • Ran for 3.5 miles in 35 mins. A bit slower this time because I have increased the incline level to 2% and kept it there throughout the whole run. This way it actually gives you a better feel for  running outside. Speed stayed around 6-7. I did start walking to rest during the 2nd mile and the 3rd mile. I felt more spent this time around because of the incline. I felt good right after though, but crashed hard at work lol.
Side note: I have a feeling I will be getting shin splints tomorrow.
