Total Mileage: 44.8
Total Time: 6:06:44

This was an enjoyable recovery week. There was only one workout with some intervals on Wednesday which I knocked out using the Garmin 305. The other highlight was my return to the pool. I got in two practices with the Reston Masters. Although I hoped out during the main IM sets, I still managed to get in 3000+ meters a session. I'll try to keep swimming going forward for recovery. Longish run on Sunday was nice but I felt a bit dead at the end. I should have taken in some calories when running for almost two hours. Next week is going to be huge.
