Really nice day outside here- 12 degrees celcius and sunny- great day to run through the park!  Went out at with my heartrate at around 80% of max- which was 4:10 km/6:40 mile which did not feel like I was exerting myself too much. Conditioning is definitely getting around where I want it to be for racing. Just need to hone my vo2 max with some short distance track work and I should be ready to rumble!

Summary for the week:

Swimming   40 minutes and 50 minutes with 6X100m speed=90 minutes

Biking 65 minutes mountain bike and 60 minute hard spinning class=120 minutes

Running  25 minute tempo plus 2 mile warm up cool down, 4 mile- 2 easy 2 hard; 5 mile semi-tempo; not sure the time here- 75-80 minutes?

285 minutes/4.75 hours training plus 25 minute circuit training and 45 minutes weights

Not including weights, averages out to around 47 minutes per day- not too bad.
