Solid Sunday Brick...

It's been a week or so since I've posted on the blog...but fear not young grasshopper, training is going well...consistent mileage, both running and on the bike.  I have yet to start 'working', though the runs and rides are going well, as are the core/strength.  Pool work starts soon...So let's talk for a second about today's workout...a brick workout that I've been eyeing for a week or so.  1:32 on the bike, in the wind...both ways (?)...but was able to generate good power.  Quick transition for my favorite 6 mile loop.
The plan was to run the first 3 at 6:50 pace, and then 6:35 pace on the trip home...here's how the run went:
Mile 1: 6:49
Mile 2: 6:31
Mile 3: 6:59
Mile 4: 6:41
Mile 5: 6:19
Mile 6: 6:27...6 miles in 39:48
A solid effort...and the run felt good...I was working, but not killer.  Legs had no problem coming off the bike...sign of good things to come I hope :)
I'll try to be a little more consistent in my posting...promise :)
