@gobonas99 You are killing it. Wow!!
I'm tired too. Very tired. Let's see.
6/6: 3x brick - 15 mile cycle/3 mile run, repeat three times
6/7: 6 mile run in 90 degree heat (on purpose - I'm an electrolyte science experiment)
6/8: weights
6/9: (so far...) 5.5 miles on the track w/ 4x1 mile repeats at 8:00-8:10 pace
I have a 1.5 hour trainer ride tonight.
My legs are all twitchy and I want a nap.
Happy training friends!!

Lots of travel the last few days with too much time spent sitting. Plenty of pool time planned for the next week to get me caught up on that.
@gobonas99 - Good luck with the recovery. I've had friends do 3 full weeks of (injury induced) rest after their peek week and still PR. I came within a minute of a PR on a recent half marathon after 2 weeks of injury related cutting as well, so don't feel bad about injury recovery rest days!

@ironmankat - thanks. I slept 9.5 hours on Sunday night and 9 hours last night. not counting my nap after my ride on sunday. and I'm ready for bed now (10:15pm) LOL!
@Ohhim - thanks...that gives me hope
tho any time will be a PR for me, since this is my first time doing the 70.3 (or any 70.3 for that matter LOL). But my hamstring is feeling pretty good tonight after the race (which I PR'd by over 9 minutes) 
Definitely starting my taper this week, thank goodness - easy LL ride yesterday, 3.5 mile race today, 2200y swim tomorrow, 90 min brick thurs (75/15), core/stretch/rest on Friday....don't have sat/sun wkos yet, because my coach wants to see how my hammy is doing after wed/thurs workouts...but sat should be on the shorter side (my husband's nephew is getting married in the afternoon, and I want to go cheer on my teammates at a tri that morning).
6/9 - JPM Chase Corporate Challenge - 3.52 miles in 30:44 (official time). Avg pace 8:45 min/mi. EIGHT-FORTY-FREAKING-FIVE!!!! I've never averaged that fast before, in a race or in training! I'm ecstatic!!

Last 2 runs, i've upped my pace a bit, but from higher cadence rather than larger steps. The faster pace has wiped me out during the run, but we'll get there. The more i do it, the longer that pace will last, right??

Joining in a little late and because it is my first month doing this kind of challenge, I'm just going to see how I go without seeing any goals. I have National Fencing Championships at the end of the month so most of my training is focused on prepping for that. I will log minutes as most of my training happens indoors and doesn't have distance involved.
Including today (10 June) my totals for the months so far are:
Bag fitness: 4 hours 45 minutes
Fencing: 6 hours
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu: 5 hours 30 minutes
Total: 16 hours 15 minutes0 -

I skipped my trainer ride last night and sat on my butt watching tv. It was a good call. I feel much less fatigue in me legs. Sometimes you just need to rest.

Ended up lifting 2 days in a row (different parts) as a bit of an experiment. Now that we are 1/3 of the way through the month, I'm roughly on track in terms of total exercise hours, but about an hour behind on running and swimming time.

6/3 - 30 min weights, 4.5 mile run

6/7- 31.5 miles bike, 1.5 run
6/8- swim- 1900m
6/9- really tough, albeit short (3.1 miles), trail run in heat and humidity. Having real trouble adjusting my pace to keep my heart rate in line when I'm on trails instead of the road. Hopefully that will come in time.
Followed my run with a short-ish spin (14.5 mi), mostly granny geared it around and gawked at all the mansions up on the hill. Did a few climbs and descents- which I've traditionally been quite scared of.
6/10- REST!!! Beer+ice cream + tacos!! I needed an actual break, it was nice.
Swim: 9000 m
Bike: 73.5 mi
Run: 14.2 mi

06 Sat - 100 kilometre ride on our Bike Friday Pocket Llamas (folding bikes). The route was relatively flat, but had the added challenge of rain for the first half of the ride. Fortunately it was a warm day for winter, and wasn't at all windy for a change!
That was the longest distance we have ridden the folding bikes so far. It was kind of a test ride to see how we would go over that distance. We were reasonably comfortable. I was having a few back/right hip issues, but stretching seemed to help.

Spent a bunch of today running errands by bike, but with urban traffic, the miles weren't exactly piling up. Still, got a few key things taken care of. Also, slowly catching up in the pool, which helps, as it is my weakest discipline.
6/1 - 0.3 mile swim, 15 mile bike
6/2 - 6 mile bike, 5 mile run
6/3 - 30 min weights, 4.5 mile run
6/4 - 65 mile bike, 5 mile run

6/10- REST!!! Beer+ice cream + tacos!!
6/11- 7.6 mi. flat trail run. I was supposed to swim first, but really needed a nap and to decompress from work a bit. Glad I did because it felt great to run on fresh legs, instead of running directly after swim intervals.
Looks like I'm staring down the barrel of a very long swim session tomorrow.

25.7kmh average speed (moving time). Not bad at all, considering its through London at rush hour. Picked up a drafting fairy and couldn't shake him so let him tag on whilst i bridged the gap to the next rider, my fairy then obligingly took his turn up front, makes for a nice bit of pace through Regents Park :oD0
