Weekly Training Log: Week of June 9th, 2014: Good running, more baseball, new patio set = summer

In Training: My achilles continues to feel better and I am able to push the volume and intensity a bit more now. I was able to get a good nine miles of running on Monday in a bit under an hour. My running volume is above where I though it could be, and for that I am super happy. I really need to build the bike volume up over the next few weeks though. Aiming at 500 - 700TSS Leading up to my next race. I am aiming at being back at full training mode for IM Boulder/IM Louisville/Kona next week.

In Life: This week was my first week spending a little more time with Aiden throughout the day. His montessori school ended their spring session last Friday, so it was nice to spend time with the man. My Mother/Father, and in-laws helped out a few days to hang out with him while I spent some time on the bike. I can't be thankful enough that I have the family support to do what I do.

My Dad and I took Aiden to a Rockies game again on Thursday, then my family moved a new patio set on Friday. Sunday was fathers day, and the Boulder 70.3 race. I spent the day spectating out at the Boulder Res, then we BBQ'd out back with the family. Pics below.

Swim: 3k yards
Bike: 154 miles/454 TSS
Run: 46 miles

Fathers day - My bro in law, Nathan, My Dad, and Tom (father in law) in our back yard

Aiden and his endless amount of toys. We are not going to spoil the next one with this many cars/airplanes/crap

Another attempt at a "smile for a picture" - He's getting a little better

This was Rox game #6 of the season for me. This kid loves baseball and will sit and watch - easier to take him to a game than keep him occupied at home.
