    Trying to get back on track after a long, fun summer. I did two 1/2 marathons, Des News 10k  and 5 Sprint Triathlons. It was great to be able to work up to a longer distance run, but I feel like my pace has slowed down a bit. After the two 1/2 marathons, I really have had no desire to do long runs ever since then, and haven't done more than a 5k.  My goal is to try to  work on improving my 5k speed and give distance a break.  I would like to get down under 30 minutes for a 5k.  Someone has suggested doing fartleks, I think I can do that. 

    This week I noticed I was a bit out of shape as I was trying to get back on track.

    Monday 50k bike ride, slower pace. 

    Tuesday Swim 1.5k, slower pace

    Wednesday 50k bike ride, slower pace with one sprint.

    Thursday Swim 1.5k, slower with a few sprints.

    Friday boot camp, then I was going to do a 5k run but I was so tired from boot camp I did a 3k walk. Wow, it was hot and I was out of shape 

    Saturday. 1k swim, 10k bike ride. No run. My hip is bothering me again.
