    Was scheduled to do a 1K TT yesterday. We had a landscaper out that took much longer than expected (poor guy's helper didn't show) and I just had to miss it.

    Wasn't feeling great today and did the 1K anyway. Bad idea. I get milder "rower's cough" when I exert myself hard. This was ridiculous. I got the Pfizer shot on Friday and didn't feel great going into it.

    Time was OK considering (3:52.2 and I never was a great sprinter), but felt horrid after and HR didn't go down like it should. Actually took a baby aspirin worried I was having a heart attack. I think it was just a combination of factors -- pollen, the shot and some exercise induced asthma. But felt rough all evening since.

    I forgot, rooftop yoga this evening as well. Not much for calories, but very challenging (at least for this very non flexible old dude).

    40 minutes into the indoor bike workout this am and had to bail out for work. Managed a 30 minute run this evening before cutting it short again. Work life has interrupted triathlon training this week. I can't let that continue, lol!

    Thursday
    I got an hour's climb in.

    Friday
    I went diving in a puddle to test my kit after lockdown.

    It was muddy, and cold. It was expensive - I flooded my torch battery. But it was still bloody brilliant to get back in the water.

    I then went for a walk, getting just under 30,000 steps in.

    I have some photos, but image upload seems broken.

    Did a shorter, but decent lift (supersetting, not really that heavy), then immediately into rowing intervals (2 X 10 minute/20 stroke rate @ 2:18 pace). Cooled off with another 1K or so.

    First lift in over a week. Pinched nerve last Friday and this Tuesday had a guy over the house doing landscaping in the back (we're redoing the back yard). Felt good to lift again. Feeling sore in a good way.

    Yoga last night was fun. Wife even said, "you're a LOT better than I thought you'd be...". Coming from her, that's a huge compliment. I actually feel like I am getting a bit better at it. I was able to keep up with nearly every move and it's a fairly vigorous Vinyasa class.

    60 minute trainer ride today. 10 min warmup going from 125-215 watts, then a combination of cadence drills and endurance work during the ride.

    Long run and endurance swim planned for tomorrow. 11 weeks to race day.

    The usual audience-boring routine (which I need to switch up soon as I'm getting kinda bored myself - short attention span 😆).

    35'ish yoga/stretch/foam-roll.
    5.16mi walk, 3.9mph.
    30'-ish stationary bike, started out easy, picked it up to around 85% HR reserve in the last 8'. Seems to be some increase in cycling power capability, with some cycling after a long hiatus, but it's still . . . not great. Pathetic, even. Oh, well.)

    Felt decent (but not fast yet) during my long run. Some pre-run foam rolling/yoga helped the legs warm up after only about 10 minutes. 1:25:00 run was a 45 minute ez endurance pace, then 10 rounds of 1min@Z4/1min recovery pace, then EZ 20 minute jog home.

    Swim workout: 2500 yds. 200 warm up, then a pyramid:
    4x50 5 sec rest
    2x100 10 r
    2x150 10 r
    1x400 10 r
    2x150 10 r
    2x100 10 r
    4x50 5 r
    200 cooldown

    Temps are warming up to the mid 50s today. Hope to sneak out for some trout fishing in mid afternoon. :)

    Planned formal stuff all done way earlier than usual, and slightly abbreviated, weird schedule so I could do a Zoom social then get together with a couple, out-of-town friends, for take out dinner (all 3 of us post both vax shots, all of us have been isolating).

    25' yoga, stretch, foam roll.
    5308m machine row, Z3 and below.

    Cycled 40km. Really chilled nice, fast cycling. Until the storm came up and I had to cycle the remaining 10km against it. Oddly, my speed went down by a lot :D
