Back in the Saddle

After a very easy week last week, I will take another three weeks pretty easy before ramping up. Yesterday I biked for 60min; 206w; 145bpm; and today I biked for 60min; 187w; 141bpm; and lifted legs for 30min. My heart rates are completely out of whack relative to where they were for the same power right before the Ironman, which suggests to me that I am still tired. I don't expect my HR to come down for a while, but for the next 12 weeks, if not more, I will be biking very easy -- mostly HR zone 1. After 10 days since the Ironman, I have my first run scheduled for tomorrow. My plan is to gradually build up the run over the next 8 weeks or so until I'm hitting 40-50miles/wk.
