Totals for May 2010 and YTD

In the month of May there was two TTs and two duathlons added into the training totals.

Below are the totals for this May compared to previous Mays. In all Mays, except 2009, there were TTs and duathlons, I think in May of 2008 there were two TTs and three duathlons. You can see that I stopped running and basically stopped biking in May of 2009. You will notice this trend with comparisons to 2009. I stopped running and basically stopped bike in May 2009, and I started wearing a walking cast for about 3 months at this point.

Below are the YTD totals and the totals since 2007. I am wonder if I can hit a million yards by the end of this year. Probably not. Probably not until early 2011.

Below are the totals since 2007 and the average per month since then. These totals include all races. I think 21+hours of training a month for over 3 years is a pretty good average.

This Sunday I am doing Pigman Sprint in Palo, IA. Last time, and only time, I did the race was 2008. I will have a little preview before Sunday.

February Update, Year Update, Update Update

I am kind of stealing this from the Tundra Transition Zone blog, the idea of updating my monthly training stats. I looked at his blog and saw it, liked it, now I am going to use it. Isn't that what blogging is all about? I am also going to try and provide weekly workout updates. See if I can take the time on Sundays to summarize the weeks worth of workouts.

I am going to put data in the blog as an image from Excel. Easier that way for now. Until I learn how to embedded a portion of an Excel spreadsheet in the blog.

Obviously, my run time has gone way down, due to the stress fracture. For not running, my total time for the month is pretty good. This time does not include PT and strength training, which is anywhere from 1-4 hours a month. This is a lot more than previous years. I am doing the PT to get my run mechanics improved, hopefully, and the strength to help the weak leg, improve my core, and substitute for running. Swim volume is way, way, up. Which is expected since I have been swimming morning Masters 3 days a week for almost a year now. Bike could be higher, I was out of town the last 2 weekends in Feb and that is usually when I get a good 1-2 hours each weekend.

Nothing in Feb 2007 because I did not start training in 2007 until March. 2006 I kept no training log, it was my first year.

I traveled for work in January so I missed some swimming, otherwise my YTD 2010 swim would be about 25%-30% higher. The grand totals start in March of 2007 and are updated through Feb. This month, March, I am aquajogging on Monday mornings, per Coach Kris's March training plan, with a little swim mixed in. I don't count the aquajogging as running in my log. So my swim yards and time will go down, but I am getting the time in.

So, that is how things total up at the moment. I feel pretty good, in general. Still wish I could run, run. My run now is more of a jog/walk, but that is all I allowed to do, so that is all I do.
