TNT Brick Workout- 20 mile ride/ 7 mile run

Today was a brick workout at Shawnee Mission Park. It consisted of a 20 mile bike ride and a 7 mile run. I did not break any speed records on the ride- there were a lot of hills and it's still early in the season. On the run I was 13 seconds faster per mile than I was last weekend when we did the 8 mile run. 13 seconds faster after having just ridden 20 miles!!!

Temps were in the 50s. Winds were low. Overall a great day to be outside!
Go Team!

I went for a run today...

The email said we would be running as long as the temps stayed above freezing. Woke up this morning and it was 34. Game on. We met at 7am at Indian Creek Trail (119th and Quivera). The plan was to run 4 miles, turnaround and run back for a total of 8 miles. There were water stops set up at miles 2 and 4 and 6. I managed to maintain a constant pace throughout the entire run. It took me a mile to "warm up" and to find a rhythm for my breathing... I stayed strong until about mile 7 and started to have trouble breathing. I should have used my inhaler then instead of waiting until the end. But I pushed through and finished strong. Overall felt good, and excited that I made it to mile 7 w.o any problems since last year I would use my inhaler every 4 miles.
