There is not a time while training for an endurance event that there wont be a set back or two. This is my week. I started the week off with my families 1st trip to OC and we had a blast. Sometime during the trip I must have tweeked my back and by the time friday came along it was difficulty to move.
After 15 plus years working in kitchens and 12 years in the fire service has taken its toll on my back not to mention a weak core.. It is not difficult for a little thing to turn big. I have been injury free for 2 years and very thankful for that. That is due to amazing coaching and great teachers.
I have missed this weeks training with the last of the spasms being yesterday. I spent the last couple days resting, stretching, and taking anti inflammatory meds. I am feeling better today and will get back into the swing with some swimming tonight and a couple days of lite running 4 and 6 miles and back to the bike on wed. I am going to shoot for a 30 and 35 mile rides this week with another 2-3 pool sessions and a long run of 13 miles.
Races are just a 2 months away and if I am going to have a set back I am glad it happened early in the season.
