Gurl, you are Ms Ambition. Let your body rest a bit.

(In other words, ease my guilt!)

Sorry, I didn't read the question carefully. I did do a triathlon, once, 30 years ago. Not today.

Now, shall I go to the gym today? Or back to bed
Go swimming, not hard laps just easy loosening up, it does a body good.

I had a PT appt first, she made me stretch. When i got to the gym, I walked/jogged a little (mile and a half), did 10 minutes gently on an exercise bike, did a little strength training (been neglecting that) and my remaining PT exercises (they are not hard work but must be done..), swam a sedate 400 then hit the hot tub the idea was to try and lightly use everything that got used yesterday to minimise stiffness. so far so good I'm just a little saddle sore ans there are remnants of my body marking that i can't scrub off.

IT sounds like you are exercising everything. What does the PT hit?

Leave it on, that's like a campaign ribbon.

That boy was high mileage before he ran the triathlon. We've started to walk and trail run after our Sunday morning mountain biking. All in all its just under 3 hours of good cardio and I finally felt pretty good today. The sneaker time does remind me why I dropped serious running after wrestling in the winter of 1982. I am not a runner, but my hips are starting to loosen up.
