Coaching Session
I got to the gym at about 5:30am this morning and hit the bike first. I cruised pretty well the entire time, although I have to say, two hours on a spin bike is pretty monotonous. I watched Forgetting Sarah Marshall, which helped pass the time (that movie is hilarious, by the by). Senora Gray Boots and Old Navy were both there; nothing too exciting to note during the session though.
Then I went to the pool and warmed up a bit before my session with my coach at 8:00am. I was definietly fatigued and probably couldn't have done a 1500 straight, I was just so tired. It is good that I got to do a trainer session today, it's harder mentally, but easier on your body because there aren't as many yards. We also ended up talking quite a bit about general triathlon information, which was increadibly healpful. A few things from today:
- Long sleeve wetsuit over short sleeve wetsuit for bouancy and speed.
- Tri-shorts and shirt over tri-suit unless the tri-suit is tight.
- Never wear a tri-suit in a long distace race, it's impossible to go to the bathroom without taking the whole thing off.
- Black or dark gray are the only acceptable colors for shorts, there are just too many things that can be exposed with other colors (see picture for explanation-Yikes).
