#triathlontraining measurements and metrics are important for training and improvement.
For me it has become a big assistance to see “how I am feeling”. There are always going to be good days and bad days when training. But with #cancer and #chemotherapy getting a bad start to a session or a few bad sessions in a row can trigger a “uh oh, this is cancer rearing up.” And the couple of days had a couple times where SOB cropped up (shortness of breath people 😂). Was on bike trainer today. .
Took a look at routes I used before on the trainer and saw one I did for an hour in August. Wanted to see how it would go. Wound up with my third highest Power for 60 minutes since I started and only two Watts short from August. Pretty much same MPH and distance.
Cancer came back for the third time in 3 years the end of 2017. Inoperable. Signed up for my 1st Triathlon that day and started training. Ironman 70.3 Finisher Fall 2018. Just missed another 70.3 finish in Fall 2019, after another 22 rounds of chemo and 3 radiation treatments since the Fall 2018 finish. Chemo stopped working December 2019. Looking to race in 2021
