So we have arrived in Honolulu and its hot and humid. The trade winds are blowing and keeping the 33 degree temperatures feel like 33 even though humidity is through the roof! yesterday morning i went for a hike on the Lunar looking koko head and it was beautiful. some steep sections and a knap sac filled with bottles of water make it nice pre workout for the afternoon run. In the PM in went for a run at around 2pm in the blazing sun 5k out and back. The workout was to go hard on the way out and easy on the way back. the one thing is that the way out is straight up for 5k to 1300ft. By the time i got to the 3k mark i had goose bumps from being dehydrated and my body saying "what the hell are you doing!!??" i got to the top, stood over the 1300ft cliff over Waimanalo and let the trades cool me down. then it was a easy run down. My heart rate up was super high and is a good way to prep for heat while racing. My body will figure out how to cool properly in the heat within the nexty few days. The weather in Brisbane loks sporatic right now. Some days 30, and some 21. So i ve got to prep for anything. Today im off to the O'ahu club for a swim and then a nice bike in the pm. after surfing at Ala Moana. Tomorrow will be an interval run and the day ater that will be a brick. Cant wait till taper time. Also i forgot to mention that in Vancouver i went to Kitslano beach pool and swam laps. 1 lap being 137m long!
thats all for now.
