Week 11 Ironman Training and My First Giveaway

I hope everyone is enjoying their Monday so far! I am excited to host my first giveaway ever!

Because I am an Ambassador for FitFluential, I was sent a shipment of Chia Seeds and I would like to share them with you.

So two lucky readers will get a bag of black and a bag of white chia seeds to try out.

The contest is easy to enter, you get an entry for each of the following (be sure that you make each entry a separate comment)
1. Follow my blog and leave a comment that you follow

2. Follow FitFluential on Twitter OR like FitFluential on Facebook and leave a comment

3. Mention this giveaway on your blog or twitter.
Giveaway will close on Saturday January 21st at noon (Mountain Standard Time) and I will announce the winners that evening. I will use a random number generator to select the winners, good luck!

Week 11 Ironman Training

Monday 60 min yoga

Tuesday am: Distance swim 2900 yds

pm: Interval Run 6 miles

Wednesday am: 90 min spin class

pm: 60 min strength training

Thursday am: 60 min progression Run

pm: Speed Swim workout

Friday am: Strength training

pm: 2 hr 15 min time in the saddle ride

Saturday: Frotey’s Frozen Five Mile Race with 5 easy miles later in the day to add some distance.

Sunday am: 3 hour bike ride on rolling terrain

pm: Strength session

Yesterday I finished my first “ironman” for my gym’s ironman competition. It’s funny that I easily finish the swim and run portion in a week but the bike portion takes me almost two weeks to complete. Last week I competed over 14 hours of workouts and over 11 miles, it scares me that this is MUCH less than I will do in one day! Makes it more real what I am training for and I am grateful I have six months to get my body ready for it!
