Decided with this being a crazy week with traveling to Minneapolis to my brother's for Thanksgiving that I would take this week off from my bike training. I will pick up Week 4 this coming Sunday. I am having an issue with keeping the noise down and waking the kids up in the mornings, so I have been diligently (or at least kind of) on getting the room downstairs finished. When I mean finished, just electrical finished up, so i can at least insulate the ceiling and walls. This should keep enough of the noise down that I can ride my bike in the mornings without causing too much havoc with the family.
We ended up driving up to Minneapolis to spend a few days with my brother and his family. It was nice to see them and their kids and have our kids play with them and my sister's kids. It was a great few days with my parents, brother and sister's families. I managed to get in 2 quality runs while I was up there. I ended up doing 6 miles on Thanksgiving morning and another 4 today. It was a great change of scenery running around Lake Minnetonka and the rolling hills provided the right amount of challenge. All in all my body and legs felt great. I need to get in at least one run per week now that wrestling has started just to keep my muscle memory up. I should be able to accomplish this on Sunday's during the course of the season. I am thinking right now, my swimming is going to struggle until wrestling season is over, but I guess that is the way it goes. I will have to get it started in March. That still gives me 3 months of swimming to get me up to be able to swim in the Half Iron. Well that is about it for now.
Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!
