Day 4 - Didn't happen

So yesterday was supposed to be day 4...  But that didn't happen.  I was going to do Insanity Pure Cardio and Insane Abs with a friend last night.  He hadn't gotten back to me, so I decided to take a nap instead, as I was exhausted.  When he said he wasn't going to come, I decided that I wasn't going to do it, as my nap had just made me more tired.  So instead, I took an early night, got an ok sleep, and am now rested for the weekend (which is supposed to be terrible, weather wise).

I'll make up for the missed workouts this weekend, don't you worry.  Maybe I'll throw an extra one in there, just as a punishment.

I know, you can't wait to hear about them.

Day 4 - 60 Minute Bike Ride in Zone 1

So today was a pretty good bike ride at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve.  The circuit is the race track where the F1 of Montreal, and the Indycar races are held.  It's a 4km loop, including some uphills, downhills, and plenty of straightaways.  The track was pretty busy today, with a lot of people going a lot faster than me, and lots of group rides going on.  It sort of motivated me to join a group.  I may look into the local tri club, Les Chickens.  I will look into them seriously this weekend, but I do know that they are a very francophone group, so we will see how that goes.

Training has officially started & Some news

So this week marks week 1 of my 6 week training plan leading up to my first tri on July 10th.  Here is a quick breakdown of how it's gone so far.

Day 1 - Sunday, May 30, 2010 - Rest Day


Rest day.  I love this plan!  How do you start with a rest day?  Went miniputting up in Laval, and am seriously considering going to SkyVenture, an indoor skydiving simulation.  They are also building an indoor surf wave, which will be awesome when it opens.  All in all, good day.  Went to Bofinger for dinner, so that wasn't the MOST healthy, but it was delicious.
