Hood to Coast: Bike/Run
Took yesterday (thursday) off. Felt like I needed some rest.
Start HTC today. Biked 43 (2:50/3000 ft ascent) with Scott M and Rob P in morning.
Started HTC 6:15 pm.
First leg 6.8 miles, slight downhill almost entire way. Kept stride short and cadence high. Able to run 6:52 /mile pace without much tightness in hamstring. For once, my quads actually were my limiter in pace the final couple of miles due to fatigue. Overall, 47 min. Held zone 2 most of way and zone 3 for about 15 minutes.
Diet:
Breakfast: 1/2 cup oatmeal. Coffee
After ride: lemon cliff bar, cliff protein bar.
Dinner: after first leg of race, stopped home to rest. 4 egg whites with vegies and black bean salsa, 2 slices wheat toast, 12 oz skim milk.
