EC Camp Day 3


The day began with an early first breakfast and a 6am swim. The swim was a solid 3600yds with some strength work and other fun sets. KP who lead our lane with a bit extra weight added has now been dubbed Coach Rock. After the swim we met for second breakfast.

The ride for the day was advertised as a somewhat peppy 40mi. This was what we got with a good tempo set up Gates Pass and then some pace work. Coach Justin (pictured here) divided us into two groups and the first group was sent off with a 1 min head start. The goal was for the second group to catch the first by keeping a smart paceline rolling. Solid work was done by all. We brought home the ride in a bit over 2hrs and 45 miles. Still need to get a run done and then the highlight of my day is a couples massage with Tony D. from NYC. I knew I'd be spending a lot of time training with him but the massage has taken it to a new level.
