Wednesday: Had a good workout today. One hour spin class and then 1,500 meters of swimming. Swim times were 13:02 (first 500m), 58 sec break, 12:36.5 (second 500m), 1:23.5 break, 12:28.5 (final 500m) - for a total 40:28.5 with the breaks (or 38:07 without). Not as fast as Monday, but the spin class definitely tired me out. I went directly to the pool from the cycle room with hardly a breather. It is interesting that as I took the breaks between the 500 meter sets that the times actually got faster!
Thursday: Another spin class, this time with Don. His most intense workout since breaking his collarbone at the Peach Pedal (July 15), and he did great! Finished up the workout with some weight training - arms, chest, and abs.
All set to make the drive up to Wichita Falls tomorrow for packet pickup and pre-race activities for Hotter Than Hell. The temperature forecast has steadily increased day by day - early this week, it was a high of 93 and partly-cloudy; now the forecast calls for clear skies and a high of 98. So, it will probably be a game day decision on whether to do the 100KM ride or go for the full 100 miles!
