Tri Class #15: part two

Yay! I did manage to get the run in last night. I ran a loop around a neighborhood near the Y. We were told to run one-mile repeats, and I think my loop was just shy of a mile. I estimated the distance by doing a warm up lap and combining my time along with perceived effort. Not scientific, but it was the best I could do. It has a few hills in it, one being short but steep, so I think it balances out for the slightly shorter distance.

After the warm up lap, I did three repeats with two minutes rest between each one. My times were 9:34, 9:44, and 9:22. I finished up with a final loop at a slow jog, then went in the Y and did a bunch of crunches along with some pushups and plank-poses.

I'm so happy I was able to get that in. On a side note, the car appears to be fixed. We changed the battery and all is well. Hopefully it wasn't something else, like the alternator, which will manifest itself by draining the battery in a day or two.
