Missing Monday was hard...

I rolled out of bed at 6 am without an alarm clock and got only about 5 hours of sleep. Surprisingly I felt pretty good and I went to the Y to complete yesterday's long swim and weight session. I did the weights first and then hit the pool for my long swim. The main set was 30 x 100 meters on a 15 second rest before sets. I was determined to get my speed back and I really focused on pulling hard. The first set I did in 1:39 and stayed under 1:49 for 2000 meters, then I couldn't hold it and the last set was around 1:55. I didn't call that workout in, I really gave it all I had. When I got out of the pool I was pretty tired and with the lack of sleep and almost 3 hours of morning training I was a bit of a basket case for the morning. I had problems with my email and was on the phone with Apple support and I'm sure the guy thought I had mental problems, my mind was fine but I couldn't describe the problems and make sense. As the day wore on I started feeling better and I was really hungry all day long.

I got on the road at 6:00 pm to do my moderate bike ride, it was 16 C outside, unusually warm for this time of year. I had absolutely no power. It was very windy and I just did my best to finish. When I got home I was going to rest and then go for a run. I changed into my running clothes and lied down on the couch under a blanket and tried to warm up from the ride. By the time I finished the ride it was cold and my toes were frozen. I was shivering and just tried to warm up before running. Next thing I know I fell a sleep and woke up at 11 pm. I guess I'm running a little longer tomorrow. Today I ended up doing just over 4 hours of training and I was scheduled to do just over 5 hours. All I could do was eat, my body was just craving food and I didn't want to "bonk". By the time I went to bed my body was "burning up" and I was sweating pretty good. I could tell I really pushed my body today. I can't believe that I'm not yet as fast as I was last year, but I keep telling myself that I only started my 3rd week of performance training and to relax.
