Tuesday was "mile repeat" day on the bike. A 1 hour 20 minute workout, with 6x7 minute repeats that were uncomfortably hard.
Tuesday was a 45 minute bike workout, and 15 whole entire minutes of PAIN FREE running!!
Wednesday was "long run" day, with a whopping 25 minutes of running (!) and 2 hours on the bike.
On Thursday I traveled to Aspen, for several wonderful days with my sister.
We were SUPER active (despite the elevation that she lives at- over 8,000 ft!)
We did a total of 14 miles of hiking, and 14 miles of leisurely biking (but at altitude, still a workout!) Of course, we also rode gondolas, took scenic drives, enjoyed local food and beers (as well as sunsets on her deck, which offers the most incredible scenery!!) The two of us just happen to be active people , so the days were delightfully jam packed with adventure.

So, normally this would be the start of tapering. Given the lack of abuse that cycling workouts give your body, I plan to more or less chug along for the next couple weeks. My hope is to get my running time up to about an hour this week (like, an hour for one run) and see what happens. I am operating 100% pain free currently, and I plan to continue that trend.
