Brick-out

I love brick workouts. They remind me how freaking hard triathlon is. Very humbling.

Today was a pretty simple number; 1:15 on the bike(comfortable, but not easy) then a 30 minute run (you guessed it! Comfortable, but not easy).

The computer on the bike said I did just over 28 miles and averaged 22.3 mph, although this was on a trainer, so what ever that's worth. In the real world, I'd say absolutely nothing.

The run felt pretty good. I tried to keep the pace reasonable, and I think I did a pretty good job. When I finished, I mapped the run. I did just over four miles in 30 minutes, which is about 7:20 minute miles. Not bad, but not nearly what I hope to be racing at.

Afterward, I enjoyed my favorite home brew recovery drink: 10 oz. of 2% milk with 5 tbs. of raw sugar. Shake until the sugar dissolves and enjoy. It's pretty good. Throw some chocolate in there and you've got chocolate milk. Mmmm, chocolate milk!
