My legs are very tired now. 32.86 miles on the bike yesterday. I averaged 15.81 miles per hour but I don't think that's an accurate reflection. The time keeps running even when I slow down and stop. I think I was a little faster, but not my best ride by far. The winds were brutal yesterday. I did a figure 8 in the beginning, it did not matter which way I was riding I had either a cross or headwind. How does that work? Somewhere along the way I should have had a tailwind.
Hoping to make a big 40 mile ride in 2 weeks where the majority of the trip is climbing. Between that and the long run I have to do that weekend my legs should be ready to fall off.
I really need to get in the pool more.
I covered 13.1 miles today on my run. I didn't run it all, I did a lot of walking. I needed to get out of the house, had to clear my head, and I just kept going. I could have made it home in 9, or less, but I got to a point where I kept telling myself I'm doing a half marathon today.
I have the Pittsburgh half marathon in 3 weeks. At this point my only expectation is to finish. If I have to walk I will walk. I missed 3 weeks of training with my knee injury. My heart hasn't been in it lately either. There will be other races.

Wow Ann, big weekend! I'm very impressed with your 13.1 mile run/walk following that ride. I only did 24 miles Saturday and my legs felt like I could have pulled them right off during my run today and I only did 5.5. Whatever happens in Pittsburgh, have a great time!
