    As usual, whatever my coach tells me to do. :tongue: My last race is on the 18th, so I expect between taper and recovery, this month will be lower volume. :)

    Race - Empire State Half Marathon 10/18. Goal sub-2:20. Aggressive goal sub-2:15 (actually possible, since the course is a pancake). Hoping for warmer than 40 degrees at the start this year. LOL!

    Got in a bit of each today.

    Just read somewhere that for IM training, you should aim (if possible) for 1.5x the race distances for your weekly mileage... I guess that means I'm getting close to being in shape for a race if I can squeeze in another 5 hours in the pool and 10 hours on the bike each month vs. my current mileage targets.

    10/1 - Swim 0.5 miles, Bike 22 miles, Run 7 miles
    10/2 - Lift 40 min, Bike 21 miles, Run 8.5 miles

    Total: Run 15.5, Bike 43, Swim 0.5, Lift 1
    Goal: Run 170, Bike 550, Swim 10, Lift 10
    Remaining: Run 154.5, Bike 507, Swim 9.5, Lift 9

    Gym closed tomorrow, so I'll get in an extra lift rest day... otherwise, lots of bike commuting (including to today's game). With the pirate win, I'll be up north for at least another 4 days and will definitely get in a bunch of running in this cooler weather.

    10/7 - Bike 20 miles, Run 8 miles, Swim 1 mile
