I am in the middle of doing a training plan available on Zwift called the TT Tune-Up.  I am in my third or forth week now.  I am not necessarily following it to a t, but I am doing the plan as they populate.  If I feel like doing something different I do and if I feel like riding outside I do.  Today was my third Endurance ride.  This one was a little more challenging as I have been struggling keeping my cadence above 90 since the knee replacement.  Today, on the intervals I was anywhere from 105-110 pretty consistent.  It was part of the prescribed workout with keeping the cadence that high.  I felt great after the fact with no residual swelling or pain.  The below image was taken during the cool-down.

After I got off the bike, I changed and off for my "run".  I went for a 2.5 mile walk while listening to a triathlon training podcast.  I was in a zone and transitioned quite nice to the run.  I am having less and less issues getting off the bike and straightening the leg. It is the same route I walk 4-days a week and for what ever reason today I felt good. I have a 2-mile Strava segment on this route and today I finished 3 seconds slower than my fastest time and I wasn't even trying to walk that fast.  Overall it was my fasted for this route. TrainingPeaks gave me four peak performances for todays run.

A big shout out to David Boyer. Since starting my work with David, I have improved in all areas. I thought running two races in two days this weekend would be a challenge. David gave me a plan (which I tried to follow) and I actually felt stronger on day two on a longer more difficult course. But for some goggle/contact lens issues during the swim, I might have gotten on the podium. Still have a lot of work to do before IM Florida but this weekend has given me a boost in confidence. Thanks Coach!

...my coach David Boyer who is not only a Great coach, but a Godly person who texts me scriptures of encouragement at 4:30 in the morning before the race because he knows I've been up stressing about the swim! Thanks to you all I forever grateful!!!

Love Tri_More_Fitness coaching!!! just got an unexpected race day report breaking down the good, the not so good and the just plain ugly (ah, it wasn't that bad) LOVE getting great, solid, very detailed and constructive feedback. Totally looking forward to continuing to grow in the sport...so much room for growth and progress. My only problem is I want that progress like right now, immediately.
