Back to Normal

My knee/IT band is feeling alot better, still having some dull pain but, since it didn't hurt after 4miles of speed and hills today im pretty happy. Now that im feeling better were starting to crank up the mileage a little as well as the intensity, ive been doing some more swimming and riding which is also helping keep my legs healthy. I did 4x 1mile today with every even quarter up and down a hill, was a good aerobic workout, didnt push it so i felt comfortable for the whole way. I also don't feel any soreness coming on but ill wait til tmrw.

I leave for Puerto Rico on saturday morning so im trying to get in a little more swimming and riding this week before i leave. Im still going stick to the running regimen and try and do some open water swims while im there.

Although ive been running alot of easy miles i really do feel my running fitness coming along. This is probably the longest stretch of run training that ive ever done without interuption so hopefully it pays off in the tri season with some fast run splits.

Happy Holidays
Nic
