I was pretty tired, didn't have much free time, and it was lousy out. If it
was nice I would have run, but won't argue with the rest. Next week should be high volume. |

note:
while this period is 'base' for swimming and cycling, I'm obviously doing a
lot of LT/ V02 Max work on the run. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that's
due to serious run speed being my major limiter and a 10k goal race in
March.. |

came pretty close to goals and am about 95% happy with how things are
going. |

My volume is always lower than I would really
like, but I'd need to quit school or the job to get more in! |
