Easter - AKA chocolate!!

Well its April and just under 2 months away till the race!  Could I do it - ya I'm pretty much there with the distance but I don't think I'm fit enough to do it without absolutely dying at the end.  I know I would have to walk on the run and my goal is to do that very little.  I'm going to allow myself to walk a bit on some of the hills but basically my goal is to run (even if its very slowly) the whole run portion!

Another goal is to do the swim in under 45 min.  I did it on Sat and was just under 48 min so that means cutting 3 min.  And more importantly open water usually takes longer then pool so there's some work to be done there too. 

With Easter over (today is Sunday!) I'm going to make a new goal of not keeping chocolate in the house.  I think I've mentioned this before but I sabotage myself with chocolate almost everyday.  I justify it with the amount of working out I'm doing, I can eat whatever I want.  In reality my body is craving good food to replenish with after my hard workouts and I really need to do a better job here.........But I'm keeping at the hard workouts and going strong.

Sunday Apr 1 - 70min run outside
Monday - taught 50 min spin and 2 hour computrain later in morning
Tues - 1700 m swim
Wed - 30 min TM hill run followed by TRX
Thurs - taught 50 min spin
Fri - off
Sat - 2.5km straight swim (48 min)
