Saturday I fenced in a tournament where I wound up fencing 18 or 20 bouts over the course of the day - which is a lot. It was tremendous fun. I wasn't concerned about how I would do, but did enjoy what I was doing and had some moments of brilliance.
So Sunday was tourist stuff - lots of walking.
Monday - in the car all day driving home.
Tuesday - arm/back workout and an hour of cross fit
Wednesday - fencing 3 hours
Thursday - personal trainer 1 hour - cross fit 1 hour
Friday - Pilates 1 hour
Saturday - Cross fit 1 hour
Sunday - not sure.

I am getting back into my exercising. It has been a roller coaster the last few weeks but i can say during all of this i never turned to food.
Monday doing a long run 1.5 to 2 hours. First long run in a long time
Tue strength training
wed master swim
Thursday if weather is nice doing a run working on speed. that will be around 45 minutes. speed works tires me out. if raining will do strength training
Friday what ever i did not do on Thursday will do today along with barre class
Saturday if nice bike ride or run
sunday rest
it is important to get that hip looked at. you could do tri still until you get in. my friend husband can not run so he does a duel he swims and bikes. not hard on the hip. they do offer it and that way you can get stronger in the swim . Just a thought
I have actually done some research on finding some goggles like that. I am also going to get some laces for my running shoes (cant remember what they are called but I guess they are like zip ties).
Funny thing is, it only rained on the way up there and stayed dry for the whole race. It actually was pretty cool until I got to the running leg then it got hot.
However, it looks like I will be on the shelf for awhile because my Ortho doctor is trying to get me in to Nashville to have an arthroscopic surgery done on my hip. Im sure it will have me out for a while which means for the 2nd year in a row, my trip to Chicago will get cancelled. ughhhh

Way to go and nothing wrong being last in your age group. This was your first and a big learning experience I was going to tell you how set up your stuff for transition but with you saying it was going to rain i thought forget it. like your helmet have straps laying open and the open part up so you can just put on your head. I put my glasses in them to keep safe. than shoes laces open with socks on. than riding shoes and socks.
By the way you can get goggles with lens in them. i buy mine at a swimming store. to buy from an eye place to much money if need i can see if this place ships to the states but i am sure there is places there that sell them.
Monday was a run and walk
Tue strength training
wed master swim
thursday run
friday barre class
saturday run
sunday walk for brain tumor
