The Swimming and Cycling Continues

Sorry, no witty commentary for this post.  My shin is healing, but I'm still staying away from running - I don't want to risk reinjuring it before the fracture is 100% gone.  So just a week's work of (spin & swim) entries for the training log:

• Tue: "5 miles" on the hotel elliptical trainer in 50 minutes.  Not bad for an "on-the-road" workout.
  
• Wed: 50 minutes of spin class (avg hr 155 bpm) - had to bug out early for a lunch appointment.
  
• Thu: The normal 1-hour spin class (avg hr 155 bpm - looks familiar) and then a "quick" (but should have been quicker) 500 yd swim in 10:28
  
• Fri: 2,500 yd swim in 54:33 with 500 yd splits of 10:37.5, 10:44, 10:47, 0:42 (break), 10:56, 10:47 ... A solid effort as I ramp up my distance again
• Sat: Double spin classes: First hour-long class @ avg hr 156 bpm, 15-minute "intermission" (and water bottle refill) @ avg hr 144 bpm, Second hour-long class @ avg hr 152 bpm.  Average heart rate of 153 for the entire 2:15 effort.
• Sun: Off - ahhh ... grabbed some dim-sum and did some yard work (the weather is still mild in Texas)
• Mon: 3,000 yd swim in 1:05:53 with 500 yd splits of 10:46, 10:51, 10:49, 0:43 (break), 11:02, 10:58, 10:45 ... The speed is not quite back yet (this is more than 4 minutes slower than my PR), but at least the distance/endurance is coming along nicely.

In other news, I registered for the Denton Turkey Roll today.  My cycling legs actually feel pretty good so I think I'll be doing at least 71 miles - either "just" the 71-mile route or perhaps start on the 35-mile until it merges with the 71 at the Lake Ray Roberts Dam Store (see Tour de French Fry)
