14 hours, 52 minutes...

Hmmm...I might as well have a part-time job because I'll be working out 14hrs and 52 minutes over the next 7 days. Coach Kat sent me my very first training schedule this morning and like she said, "it's a doozy!" Looks a little something like this:

Monday - swim 2,100m, strength train 45 mins
Tuesday - Todd's class, run 5 miles
Wednesday - swim 2,500m, run 8.5 miles
Thursday - track workout, spin class, strength train 30 mins
Friday - OFF (yippee!)
Saturday - run 20 miles (incoporating hills)
Sunday - swim 3,000m, bike 25 miles

Holy. crap. I suppose the good news is that I'll be able to eat more and still hopefully lose some weight. I didn't exactly drop the 20lbs I had planned on, but now that the holidays are over and Good Time Katie is officially in her off-season, I should have no problem trimming some of the fatty fat fat in the next couple of months! Yesterday, Johanna, Kristi and I kicked off the new year with a freezing 15 mile run out at Grassland. We were seriously bundled up and parked Kristi's car at the halfway point in case we chickened out, but somehow we made it...



So, Happy New Year! Hope you enjoy my rather boring accounts so far of training, but stay tuned, this will surely get more interesting!
