Back into the schedule

I love my folks and when they come to visit. We all have a great time and the kids get spoiled! They left today after a 1.5 week visit. It does, however, goof up my training schedule and eating schedule and I definately felt it on today's ride and at the gym.

Exercise: 2 hour 15 minute ride hooking up with the Loon State crew out of Trailhead Cycling and Fitness. avg HR 143. max HR 189. Below Zone 1 for 14 minutes. Zone 1 for 32 minutes. Zone 2 for 50 minutes. Zone 3 for 32 minutes. Above Zone 3 for 11 minutes. Lots of wind on the way back made for a fair amount of work with some hard tempo intervals and a few sprints. The legs didn't feel so bad but I did seem to get winded easily (like I was at altitude). I know the body does weird things with a disrupted schedule, but eeesh!

Strength Training:
I haven't lifted much for the past week so I eased back into the typical full body routine with slightly fewer reps but still focused primarily on legs and back.
