So I’ve had a pretty bitchin’ summer for training and racing. I’ve exceeded most of my expectations, and am now changing training focus to fall mode, another bump in hours, and forming some slightly new perspective on train activities. One thing that has changed is that the amount of energy I’m putting into training is starting to cut into the energy I have for my job for the first time. There is a point around 15 hours a week for a single, childless athlete when combining 3 hour workouts and a full time job starts to get a little difficult. I thought I’d try to write about the training/work mix, with regard to what works, what doesn’t work, and what’s [still] possible.
