    Did a mostly easy 75 minute run, with 8 x 2min hill repeats as the focus (2min climb/3min recover going back down).

    Three 10-minute stationary bike sessions an hour apart - resistance 5 out of 8, 13-14 mph (I was pushing hard, I have a ways to go to get stronger). This is harder for me than running.

    Relaxed day today: went for a roughly 20km forest walk in somewhat hilly terrain. That's all.

    Did my 6K timed test today. A bit disappointed but I didn't think it would be stellar. 2:12.1 pace (26:26.2 time). Total time, ironically on the indoor rower, equates pretty strongly with running paces, so this would be like a 26:30 6K running time. OK for a 55 year old, but not very competitive. I'd done 7500 meters at sub 2:00 pace just a few years ago, so I have some work to do still! Power is the weakest point right now. Really needing to add back in heavy lifting for leg drive strength. Cardio is getting there.

    75 minute bike trainer session today. (15min warmup, 15 min at tempo output, then 35 min above normal tempo power, 5 min cooldown). Session is designed to help extend TTE (time to exhaustion), which is a key component to long course racing.

    morning: Yoga, mid afternoon: hiit cardio and lower body strength, evening: hour of virtual fast hiking using the Max trainer and scenic routes on YouTube.
    I drove by the start of the walking trail, but it was pretty crowded with a full parking lot.
    Enjoying the lovely cardio warm fuzzies :)

    I did my hour long outside walk in the morning - we are allowed this as long as we respect social distancing.

    In the evening, I did a finger strength workout:
    Dynamic stretches; burpees; band warm-up; fingerboard warm up sets; weighted finger boarding main sets; finger curls; kettle bells; yoga.

    It took 2 hours 40. The kettle bells was around 25 minutes, consisting of 100 two handed swings, 100 LHS swings; 100 RHS swings; 100 alternating hand swings; 50 goblet squats. I did all this with a 16 kgs.

    Very nice work! I'm getting tired just thinking about the burpees followed by squat jumps. :)

    Nine weeks out from race day, so beginning to add elements of race simulation.

    Today: Bike trainer ride into outdoor transition run with race pace intervals:
    Bike split= 2:40:00 15 min warmup power/cadence, then 3 x (40min race pace/5recovery pace) intervals, then 10 min low resistance/higher cadence (95rpm) to prep legs for running.
    Run split= 30:00 first 10 min easing into the pace, then 20 minutes at half iron pace.

    I did an hour's yoga in the morning. It was mandala, which I'd not tried before. It was good - very relaxing.

    I did an indoor row in the afternoon (actually in my garden, so technically outdoors.) I did 5.5k in 2.14 pace.
