Last tuneup race before Wisconsin. Didn't have any expectations for this, just wanted a hard workout and long run. Was a little nervous for how I'd feel coming off the training week last week and finishing my workouts yesterday at 6pm. Swim went great, strong the entire way, I'm far better in calm water than choppy. Got on the bike and was pleasantly surprised by the numbers I was seeing. They weren't record breaking but I was stronger than I expected. Big lead off the bike and then the run legs were never there. Felt fine, but my 5:45 effort wasn't even getting me under 6min pace. I knew I had an additional 2 hour run after I crossed the line and with a big lead I may not have been as motivated to push as usual. Crossed the line, turned around and headed straight back out for 2 more hours of Wisconsin prep. It was hard but this was a great way to do it, aid stations every mile and lots of others suffering to keep me from stopping early. Last long run done, accomplished all the objectives today, good day. Hopefully I can put together another big week.
