This morning I ran 9 km and then biked to school, work, and home (25 km). I was zipping along on the bike but after a tough day I'm feelin' tired. I'm thinking that I'm maybe not up for back to back running days yet (or at least 9 km ones).
I keep getting close to the 260's, but haven't broken that barrier yet. That's part of the push but I've gotta learn to not push all the time... It's ok for it to take another week...
I'm also realizing with an increasingly busy schedule that I've got to plan out my training a bit more. Up to now, I've been deciding the night before what I plan to do. I'm thinking it's going to make sense to plan out a schedule, making sure to give myself light days and more challenging days, as well as days off.

Good distance but feelin' tired

I've given up on back to back running days. I have suffered over last few years with calf problems but since I have switched to running every other day it has been much much better. I also found run:walk strategy helped but recently I have gone back to normal running.
I think if you are training for triathlon there is no need to run back to back days. Fitting the bike and swim in between seems to work for me.
