I did a full tri workout - swim, bike and run. We reviewed the tobay race course. When I got home from Oyster Bay my bs = 84. I had salad, slice of pizza, orange, yogurt for dinner. Needless to say I was hungry.

Breakfast = Special K
Lunch = Turkey Club at Target - can it get any worse, yuck - had to dump the greasy bacon.
Workout: Bike workout Did about 10 Mile workout in 1 mile loops. .5 of it I did at 20+ mph and the recover part I stayed at about 18+ mph. Did a 4 mile cool down. Have a lot of questions for Dmark about shifting and race day.
Did not feel very winded today.
Post Workout BS = 124
How do I turn at high speeds on a bike?
When I want to accelerate do I downshift or upshift?
Should I change my inner tubes the day before the triathlon?

Workout
I did a Bricks workout today. 12 Miles Bike and a 4 Mile Run. My 4 Mi run was done in 29.17 about a 7.30 mile. I felt like the bike portion really warmed me up for the run. Easing into the run wasn't very difficult.
Breakfast Cheereos, Yogurt
Lunch Salad w/veggie burger
Yogurt and orange for snack, sugar free ice cream with the kids.
Definitely felt less tired than yesterday. It took me about a day to recover from the swim I did the day before yesterday.

Absolutely Tiring Day
The swim completely blew me out of the water. I didn't do any workouts today. For most of the day I was just exausted.
Lunch was a slice of pizza from sabarro.
Dinner was a salad, egg plant parm slices.
I snacked throughout the day. Yesterday's workout was a series of sprints. I really went all out. I definitely have days like this after a heavy swim workout. Not so much running or cycling. I recover pretty well after that but swim recovery is really hard.

Post Run BS = 100
How is it possible that my BS went up after a five mile run???
I'm beginning to figure out that my body does very different things on vacation than when during work. Today was a run that I would typically do when I am at work. It felt very similar to my winter runs, a bit tired etc,... So my blood sugar must completely change pending on my work or vacation schedule.
