Week 2 day 4

 I've been so busy, I think this post will be a weeks worth. Trying to log as much as I can so I can see my progress over the next few weeks. I really feel like I've pushed myself this week. Started with spin class Monday and I'm still sore today! Tuesday Bobs class and 500 meter swim, Wednesday ran 3 miles with Pepper at a 9:29 pace. The last mile was 8:30 he said. He tells me this so good so I believe him because I really don't know! I drank a Gatorade at work yesterday. Felt like my body shut down and I needed some electrolytes. I never drink Gatorade because I believe water is enough. However, with what I'm doing I learned quickly it isn't enough! Pepper also introduced me to powerade gels which are simple carbs, sodium, potassium (quick energy). I think that's the only reason I completed the 3 mile run without walking honestly. Started the week with 109rpm average at 6 miles

Didn't take a picture today but I did an average 122rpm to complete 8 miles. Sounds good that I completed an 8 mile spin-except I have to do a 300 meter swim before and 2 mile run after for the triathlon! Still, 122rpm is good in my eyes because I have only even spinning for about a week! By the way, 120-135rpm is competitive for race day. 

I did a 2.8mile cool down before bobs class which was ridiculous today!! After class, Pepper and I swam 300 meters. It wasn't a real intense swim because my body just can't do it. I am so weak, so sore and feel a little discouraged today. Trying to learn what to eat and sleep is so important. Please pray for me, please love me and support me through this.
