Gimme Gimme More!

Yes, I did steal a song title from Miss Britney Spears (don't judge, you know you like her too).

Week one of Ironman training has been completed! And this blog title says it all.... I want more!! **ask me in May if I still feel this way!  This week was all about testing and getting back into structured training. While the week hasn't been super big or long I am proud of what I accomplished.  I hit every single workout to the T and I am actually a tad sore.  Probably because all my holiday eating and drinking finally caught up to me!  The testing was in each discipline.... 3x300 time swim, 1.5 mile run staying at a certain HR, and a 10 minute Lactate Threshold Heart Rate Indoor Bike.  That last one was pretty killer.... but I didn't get as sweaty as I did yesterday on my in door hill repeats!

Signs of a good workout... red face, check! sweat dripping, check! **Please ignore the cleavage...

And while I was sweating away, my little animal was either sleeping in her new giraffe print bed, or staring at me like, "wtf are you doing mom??"

This is perfect as my "intro week" to Ironman!  Happy Training!
