TGIF is over!





Thursday we had our weekly awesome ocean swim workout. This workout usually falls on Friday, but this week it was Thursday allowing us to have a big Friday-Sunday before heading to Kona on Monday. Nothing changed however TGIF lost its meaning, and Friday would now be hard.
We started the open water swim session with a warm up followed by 20 minutes hard tempo, followed by 5x4minute @"giver pace" so that is somewhere along the lines of has hard as you can go for the 4minutes. Thursday afternoon was off as "Mean Coach Lance" wanted us to rest our legs a bit for the next few. (*We are feeling tired we just don't show it)
Fantastic Friday started with a boom this morning as the squad headed to Baldwin Park for a hard run session. The workout was 15minutes tempo, followed by 20x400m on 30seconds rest. The group did awesome and everyone held the same times we did with 1minute rest 2 weeks ago.(Justin wins the Stud award today for being sick and killing all the sessions) My legs felt a bit heavy but i stayed focused and got it done. After the run as Lance would say " Stack em up!" we headed out on the bike. The workout was just over 2hours with some steady state work and some jump intervals. The 3rd and final workout of today was our weekly 10x400m swim. Dr.Aaron may get mad at this picture above from one of our team dinners but i don't have my eyes open so its fair game for posting and now that i have Aaron on Facebook i can start tagging him in some secret photos once i flyout.(Justjoking)
Now its Sushi time with the crew, we are going to some secret location that has the best sushi ever. Anyways Super Saturday is still ago, i hope to have some war stories as well as some new photos, i had to dig up some past workout pics for today!
