This morning's T1 workout consisted of a 2.5 mile swim, followed by a 17.5mi ride to work on The Assassin. I really pushed the pace, both in the pool and on the bike, because I wanted to get to work by 9am. (It's a little unprofessional to roll in late, and even more unprofessional to roll in late wearing spandex and with dried snot across your cheeks.) I pulled it off, but just barely. My swim took me 1hr 29 minutes, and the ride took longer than usual because of some stoplights. But I walked through my office door at exactly 9am. A quick hillbilly shower in the bathroom sink, a couple of Muscle Milks, and I was ready to go for the day!
As for the workout, my legs were surprisingly weak on the ride. Either I haven't recovered from yesterday's run 100%, or I was "on the legs" too much in the swim. But I think the focus on the pool the last few weeks has really paid off. I won't be in the top 1/4 or top 1/2, but I don't think I'll be in the bottom 1/4 on the swim.
It's a good thing my job consists of a lot of sitting, because
my whole body is tired. Even my cheeks, if that's possible.
I'd think that nobody would notice the dried snot with that arm candy at your side. It IS a great looking bike, tires and all. I may never repeat this, so enjoy.
