One more week down & this one was a little disappointing. My knee has been giving me a lot of problems since the Mt Si race. I’ve been in to see the Physical Therapist & we’re working on getting it fixed. The good news is it seems to be a minor issue causing the pain rather than an injury. Wednesday I tried to run but only made it 10 minutes. Sunday I was able to get a few miles in but it was painful.
The other disappointment over the last week was the weather. After a sunny weekend that saw temperatures near 80, the Pacific Northwest was hit with COLD temperatures & snow. This meant bike workouts were all done indoors on the trainer. At this point workouts are getting a bit long to suffer through the boredom of spinning indoors. The upcoming week looks a bit warmer than the last but not quite the spring weather we had a couple weeks ago.
My next race is a sprint triathlon on May 10th. Over the weekend it looks like the group racing may have grown. Harmony is thinking about racing the duathlon & Karen may be in for the sprint.
On another note, its been a year since Harmony & I moved. With our lease ending we weighed our options & decided it best to move. The key reason for the change is lowering our rent, that may be a bit of an understatement because we are actually cutting our rent in half. I’ll no longer be two blocks from work but Harmony will be about six blocks from campus. The place we found is smaller than what we currently have but it has some great personality.
The movers are scheduled for this Friday…till then I’m living out of a box…
