Did a double today with a planned short ride on Friday as prep for the sprint tri on Saturday.
Swam 1500m easy in morning, mid-morning actually and I sort of bonked. Outdoor pool only open now from dawn until 10am and 4pm to dusk. I can't get there too early for it'll take me 2hrs from the house with traffic, so I went at 8:30 with breakfast at 6 and a granola bar at 8:15. not enough food. Lower back a little sore.
Ran after work my 3.8 mi loop with a bunch of bitching hills. Legs sore for a few minutes but "opened up" just fine. Lower back was fairly sore, but pain came and went. Ran way too fast, majority fo run was anaerobic, but with all the hills I ran the 3.8 mi in 29:45 with an easy last couple minutes. ~7:50 miles. I subsequently laid on the floor all night as my back is killing me. Max'ing Ibuprofen and hoping I'm good for Saturday.
About Me
- Scott Somershoe
- I am originally from near Philadelphia, PA and attended college at Millersville University. After college, I moved to Statesboro, GA where I got my Master's in Biology at Georgia Southern University. I lived and worked in the southeast for 17 years before moving to Colorado in 2015. I work for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as land bird coordinator for the Mountain-Prairie Region. I help support conservation and research on declining birds like Sprague's Pipit, Thick-billed and Chestnut-collared Longspurs, Baird's Sparrow, and Pinyon Jay. My wife and I have a daughter in 3rd grade (2020-21) and twin boys who turned 4 in Nov 2020. I periodically get out my guitar and play songs until the kids complain, which doesn't take too long.
