Ok my power went out last night, so I couldn't post then. But I did get over 8 hours of sleep instead.
During the afternoon I heard from a college buddy that he was registered for a 70.3 triathlon (half ironman) in July. I'm not ready to let some civilian be in better shape than me, so that motivated me to spend a little more time working out in the afternoon.
Morning workout: running sprints with the platoon for 30 minutes. I personally focused on increasing my rate of turnover while keeping my stride relatively short.
Post-workout meal: Oatmeal with peanut butter
Afternoon workout: 60 minutes on the bike, 20.4 miles. I did 25 minutes at around 180 watts, then 5 minutes at 220 watts, 5 minutes at 100 watts, 20 minutes at 190 watts, and 5 minutes trying (but mostly failing) to keep it above 200 watts. Total calories burned on bike were about 740. Afterwards I ran a slow 5k on the treadmill in 29 minutes; about 520 calories burned.
Post-workout meal: Peanut butter sandwich, 2 salami/pastrami/ham/provolone/lettuce/tomato/mustard sandwiches.
Other food: 2 string cheese, an apple, a can of black beans, half an avocado, a can of sardines, about 6 oz chicken breast, 2 cups spinach, a handful of olives, and maybe half a cup of shredded cheese. 1 cup of cottage cheese before sleeping.
