I had good Monday run with some hill repeats - https://www.strava.com/activities/386868380
I missed the Monday swim because the pool was closed :-(
As a result of the missed swim, my Tuesday intervals were strong - https://www.strava.com/activities/387579515
But then the Tuesday swim kicked my ass - https://www.strava.com/activities/388110471
No workout this morning but I'm all queued up for a Wednesday brick tonight!
Hopefully everyone is feeling strong. I expect that for most of us, Saturday is a big brick day. If you have not already done so, take a minute today to work out the logistics for Saturday and let your spouse know you'll be doing swim/bike/run for much of the day.

Nothing on the schedule for tonight except sleep and I'm super happy about that.
Friday is morning run and evening prep for big tri day on Saturday.
Hopefully everyone is having a good week. If you're lurking, take the plunge and post something up. I can be anything, we will not bite - ;-)
Swim lesson yesterday with local TI instructor provided another ah
Ha! Moment. We corrected my tendency to cross midline as hand enters the water. Back to my 'TI skate drills'
I will probably do a reverse Tri sat am-run first early, bike then swim. I have a local Olympic Sunday of week 12 and wil get the experience of running a10k in the heat after swim/bike then
first ride "OK" https://www.strava.com/activities/387396869
Big day was a no go.... swim stopped at 45min due to SLAP shoulder re-hurting .... and flatted w/o proper spare after 1 hr (did a 2x 30 min Z3+ trainer ride later) and no run
My long run was much harder RPE than should have been ?
insomnia issues again too....
Not too happy
