Weekly Training Log: Week of June 10th

I got back from Boise (I'm still planning on writing a report) on Sunday with my wife and felt pretty crappy.  That continued on Monday so I ended up taking two full days off after that tough 70.3.  My running for the week was fairly inconsistent and tired so I kept the milage very low.  I finally had a fairly strong week on the bike which is great.  I am aiming to keep the weekly milage at 200+ for the remainder of IMKY training.
I was able to go to a baseball game with my parents and son on Thursday and he loved it!  It was the highlight of my week!
Fathers day was awesome as well with a nice sprint triathlon in the morning and a BBQ at our house that afternoon.  The Boulder Sprint Tri has quickly become an awesome event that I look forward to every fathers day.  I have been lucky to do it with my Dad the past few years - not this year, but he was still there to watch.

Run: 25 miles 
Bike: 202.8 miles
Swim: 4600 yards

With a power meter, I will use climbing much more from here on out.

Before the Rockies/Nationals game, we went to go meet a few pigs and piglets.

And a mule...
