September was one triathlon, that went badly, and one duathlon, that went well.
I worked out as normal the first two weeks, up to the duathlon, after the dualthon I started to dial it back. From the middle of September until January I am going to cut back on working out, especially swimming. I tried, and I think I succeeded, in focusing more on the run between St. Croix Valley Triathlon and the Dousman Duathlon.
I added something new to my data tracking. I went back to 2007 and added my strength training time and my "other" time. Other is elliptical, and water jogging, when I was injured. I think I do, and have done, enough strength training to include that in my training time. It took a little while to go back through all my log books and gather my strength data and put that into my spreadsheet.
October through December I am going to take it a little easy, so my time will be down. I am going to focus some more on running during this time. In October I am going to do the last two Salomon Trail Runs, and hopefully by the end of the year I can add a 5k or two.
You can see that this is my lowest September on record. Should not be too big a deal. I think I need a break at the end of this year. I felt myself getting tired, fatigued, and also a little tired of some of my workouts.
I am going to try and add some product reviews by the end of the year, goggles, wetsuit, and shoes.
