First Triathlon Workout!
I did my first triathlon workout yesterday – 80 minutes on the bike at the gym. I don’t have an actual bicycle yet, as mine is being worked on (it needs new tires and a general tune-up since it hasn’t been used in about 7 years). I split the time between the upright and recumbent bikes and did intervals for the whole 80 minutes. At times, it felt like a long time to be sitting on a bike, but once I finished it didn’t feel like any time had passed which is good. I was really exhausted yesterday did feel faint a couple of times when I was on the upright bike – I’m going to keep an eye on this and see if it really was just exhaustion or if there is something else going on. I only got about 3 hours of sleep on Saturday night because I stayed over at Rob’s place on Saturday and then had to get to Qwest Field by 8:30 on Sunday morning – I was SO tired!! Anyways, I’m really excited about training for this triathlon. I’ve been working out for years and years, but it’s been forever since I was working out with a purpose and it feels good to be getting back to that.
Also – I dyed my hair this weekend. I meant to go dark brown, but it’s pretty much black. I like it though… but it’s intense. It might fade out a bit in the next couple of days, we’ll see.
