Week 11: April 22-28, 2013

This week was a disaster training-wise.  Claudia and Mark had been sick the week before, and towards the end of last week I started to get that I'm-fighting-a-losing-battle feeling in my throat.  By Tuesday night, my body gave in.  I managed to eek out one of my scheduled double workouts on Wednesday morning and then had to take the rest of the week off.  I even went home sick from work on Friday.  By Saturday morning I had two doses of antibiotics and loads of decongestants and pain meds in me and I was starting to feel much better.  I was able to get in Saturday's 2.5 hour ride (on the trainer, due to Nate's all-day lacrosse tournament) and Sunday's short ride and run. I am happy to be (mostly) done with the illness and ready to get my workouts back on schedule.
