I called this morning a recovery morning.  My legs have been pretty tired from the run and the bike I did over the weekend.  I don't want to risk injury and when I woke up this morning the legs still felt tight and tired.  I will start back up tomorrow.

6 easy miles this morning.  It was a really nice morning.  Not too cold and overcast.  It was a little humid but not enough to bother me.  I took it at an easy pace this morning, just trying to not push my legs too hard this week.

AP:  8:20

The water was much colder today than last week.  I never really warmed up today and it was very cold starting out.  I am kinda a cold wimp anyhow so it might have felt colder to me.  I wore a swim cap to help with my bald head but I think next week I will be wearing the wetsuit for my swims.  The water felt a lot like the water at my triathlon last year in Lake Mead.  Maybe a little colder.  I did 31 minutes.  To the lighthouse and back.  That is the only training I did this morning.  Planning on a longer brick workout tomorrow.

I did a brick workout this morning.  I was going to do 30 on the ride, but my bike had some problems so I cut it short.  Changed when I got home and headed out for a run.  Not too hot and the run felt good.

AP Run:  8.01/mile

Spent the day with the family at the Phoenix Temple open house and then did a session in the Gilbert Temple with my wife.  Used the day as a recovery day.

Another brick workout.  I need to be doing more of these as race day approaches.  I felt good on the bike, but the run I started a little too fast so I was tired by mile 10.  I was happy with the time because I did feel like I could have pushed harder.  I am getting to the point in my training where I am getting excited to race and am starting to try to figure out goals to shoot for in the swim, bike, and run.

AP Run:  8.03/mile
