March Wrap-Up

The month of March was exactly what I needed from a training standpoint, consistent, moderate base training. Each week I was able to get my long run, ride, and even a swim in.

My longest ride in March was a 2:20 min, roughly 30+ mile ride over the World's Toughest Half-Ironman course with Erik. It was nice set of hills, and some gorgeous scenery.

I ripped off a 1:20 min run, roughly 8 miles with Garana, on the trails that snake their way along the American River in Sacramento, CA. Beautiful scenery, and good company made the time go by quick.

Swimming still needs some work, and I'm working on building volume. My longest swim was 45 mins.

I ended the month with a recovery week, which featured a break from increasing volume, where I did a 30 minute run, and 45 minute ride. It ended up being a sort-of stressful week due to having to commute from SFO to Tahoe 3 times for interviews, but overall I feel ready to get some longer training in.

Overall my focus was on building volume, which I did, and keeping recovered, which I also had success with.

Of course I also got some great skiing in as well.

Here's some pix from the past week. The folks, and Garuna in town for a visit:
