No Longer Sick

It's been a few weeks, but I think I may have finally whipped this cold (or series of colds). As per usual, Saturday mornings are Coach Troy mornings, and I got lucky that my first week of speedwork coincided with the easiest of the workouts, Aero Base Builder V. I think another piece to my benefit is dropping the legwork for my Friday afternoon weights, so I came in a bit fresher. Once more, I made significant improvements over last time, picking up 3w on average, with my average heart rate dropping by 5 bpm. The only problem was the last 10-15 minutes, when my legs were fully cracked. It kind of came up out of nowhere, and considering that nothing that was done during the day was that difficult, it was a bit surprising. Next time through, I'll try to repeat the same level of intensity, and see if the result is the same.

All told, though, I feel pretty good about the day. I'll try to get some good rest today and be ready for another session tomorrow.
