So this week was a bit of a mess. I knew going in that trying to stay keto would be tough with anniversary dinner at one of our fav restaurants, and the Escape The Cape triathlon over the weekend. I hung in there for awhile, but quickly fell off the back of the keto-truck and back into the comforts of bad habits.
Training was also a bit of a mess. I wanted a bit of a taper going into Escape The Cape, but not as MUCH time off as I had. Some family stuff popped up that I let derail some sessions.
Escape The Cape was FUBAR. I thought I had signed up for the Olympic distance race. So I show up for packet pickup on Saturday afternoon, get my stuff, sticker and rack my bike and head back to my hotel. Only when I start to lay out my gear for the morning do I notice that my bib says SPRINT on it. I’m standing there scratching my head wondering if I just got the wrong packet, so I look over the envelope and it also says SPRINT. When I checked the envelope at pickup, I was concentrating on my NAME and AGE GROUP, but never checked the actual RACE! I went to my computer and looked at my registration confirmation from February
, and it too says “SPRINT”. So I guess I’m racing the sprint in the morning.
Race morning went smoothly. Up at 3:00am, over to Wawa to get coffee, mixed up the Bulletproof powder (blech) and loaded up the car. Off to the parking lot, through the security screening (including bomb sniffing dogs!) and then on the busses to the race venue. As usual, Delmo Sport had everything very well organized.
I met up with Yana, who was racing her FIRST Olympic, and Jennifer who was doing the Olympic Aquavelo for her 5th time racing this event. Yana & I got everything set up in transition, and we made our way to the boarding line for the Ferry.
Escape The Cape has a great start, where all the athletes leap off the ferry into the bay for the swim start. It’s about a 12 foot drop into the water, and they let athletes go 3-4 at a time, making sure everyone is off safely. The Olympic athletes go first, then the ferry is repositioned for the Sprint athletes.
Race morning was great. Clear skies, no wind, and relatively warm. Delmo Sports chooses the race date based on the tides, to ensure that the athletes have an outgoing current to swim with, making the swim very, very fast for most athletes.
I hit the water about mid-pack of the sprint athletes. The jump was just a wee bit intimidating since I’m not a fan of heights, but off I went. Once I was in the water and moving, I started passing a lot of folks. The current was very strong, and we were advised to consciously pull to our left. While the Olympic athletes were swimming we could see the pack veer way off to the right, then way back to the left as they hit different eddies and currents in the outflowing tide.
As I swam along, I notices I was getting pushed and pulled in different directions, but basically kept a fairly straight line. I finished the swim in just a tad over 9 minutes for the 977 yards, so about 30sec per 100 faster than my normal pace. I guess the tidal current was REALLY strong.
T1 was a long run/walk into the bike area. I got my stuff together and was off on the bike pretty fast. My race plan was to push the bike relatively hard, keeping a solid Z3-Z4 HR and just let power and speed be what they were. It was a bit slow and congested at the beginning, but the roads were closed to traffic and I could get around folks pretty easily.

I finished up the bike in 36:58 for the 11.7 miles, avg speed 18.9, 160w NP, 150 avg HR.
I got off the bike and out of T2 pretty quickly, and off on the run. My plan was to keep HR 145-150ish for as long as I could hold out. The run has several sections of sand, which keeps speeds down and jacks HR, so my plan was to walk them if needed. I came out of T2, and was on the road in my HR zone, and running at 11mpm pace. But very quickly HR became really high, I had chest tightness and seemed to be cramping in my left shoulder to mid-back. I’ve had symptoms like this before, and can usually walk them off and get back to running, albeit at a slower pace. But these started right before the 1st, and longest sand stretch, which I walked. When I got to the end (about 1 mile into the run) I noticed that I was a bit dizzy and having problems walking a straight line. I would jog for a bit, the dizziness would get worse, so I’d walk until it got a bit better. At the turn around, I was VERY dizzy and had to stop at the water station and lean against a vehicle. When I got to the last sand section I was extremely dizzy and someone had to help me up to the road. I had to sit down a couple of times headed back into the finish as I was really dizzy. I ended up with a miserable 52min 5k time, since I was walking pretty slowly toward the end. I did manage to run the last 50yds into the finish.
At the finish I was really dizzy, so I sat in the medical tent and explained what was going on. They gave me some diluted Gatorade and some water. I sat there for several minutes, and the vertigo dissipated a bit, but I still felt unsteady. I decided to get back to transition, and get my gear together. I was sitting at my bike, sipping my water and eating a bar when Yana found me. She was really happy with her results, and I was really happy for her as well. She helped me get my stuff together and I met her husband and boys. As I was headed back to my car, just steps out of transition I began to feel really nauseous and had to stop. I moved into the shade, leaned my bike up against the wall of the ferry terminal and threw up. I knew at that point that something wasn’t right with me, and I should probably get medical attention. Another athlete got an EMT who helped me back to the med tent. My BP wasn’t bad, pulse was ok, but the vertigo woud not subside. Given my cardiac history, the advice was to get to the ER and get checked out. While I really didn’t want the hassle, I knew it would be best to do so. So I got my first ever ambulance ride.
Once in the ER, they initial EKG didn’t show anything wrong. As I was sitting there I became nauseous again, and threw up once more. I got an IV drip started and some anti-nausea meds and started to feel better. Got blood & urine samples tested and they also came back clear. After a few hours
, and two bags of IV fluids, the vertigo was gone. My friend Jen had stayed in contact with me, and graciously offered to come get me out of the ER. The Delmo Sports team had taken good care of my bike, getting it into the ferry terminal and secured, and had contacted the vineyard where my car was parked to let them know I’d be delayed. They also stayed in touch with Fran to make sure that she also knew where all my stuff was. I can’t say enough good things about the Delmo Sports folks.
Jen & her friend Marcia picked me up and shuttled me back to my car and lead me back to the ferry terminal. I quickly got my bike, stopped to thank the Delmo team again, and was back on the road and home by late afternoon.
This morning (Monday) I’m feeling pretty good. No vertigo and no nausea. I’m not really sure what happened on race day. I didn’t do anything really different on race morning, I had plenty of fluids before the race, perhaps it was too much plain water that threw off my electrolytes. The race wasn’t really hot, nor did I feel overheated on the bike. I drank a bit on the bike, but since it was only 30 minutes I didn’t drink more than 1/2 a bottle. But I’m used to going for over an hour on the run w/out fluids. Really odd and I’m going to try and sort this out over the next few weeks.
This coming week will be back to full-keto diet. The week will culminate in the Revolutionary Ramble 100 miler. I’m riding in support of my friend Rob, who is training for IMLP in a few weeks, so this will be a big test day for him. I’m taking my road bike, since I DON’T need to climb hills in the tri-bike quite yet. But I’m also not trained up for a fast 100. I should be able to make it through the distance, but it will be slow.
So this past week was a good one. I had a couple of diet and training break throughs and a lot of fun.
On the diet front I kept to my keto diet exclusively through Wed, when I had a bit of a meltdown. All through the day I just felt more & more sluggish, and my mood turned really sour. I bagged my run on Wed since I was feeling so bad. After reviewing my intake over the prior few days, I quickly figured out that I was really low in my carb intake since the weekend, even below what I had planned in my diet. Taking a UCan w/protein really helped and I was still in keto and feeling MUCH better the next day.
I now know that 25g of carbs aren’t going to cut it when I’m looking at 10+ hours of training a week. Now the challenge is to figure out where the sweet spot is. It seems logical that I’ll need to do some sort of carb cycling. What remains to be see is if it will fit into a standard week (5 days on, 2 days off) or some other construct. Also the total daily carb intake will likely need to move up, in small increments as the weekday workouts increase in length, particularly the evening workouts.
As for the training breakthroughs, they happened over the long weekend. We planned to be at the shore all weekend, so I decided to head down Thurs night. Since the weather was crap on Thursday, I did my ride on the trainer, opting for a 45 min Sufferfest ride. Since I was anxious to get on the road, I skipped the 15 OTB run, packed up the car and drove down the shore.
Friday AM I met up with Team Zebras in Lavallette and had a great OWS in a nice little protected cove. Times were below average, but this was more about getting comfortable in the new Roka wetsuit.
Friday afternoon I went out for a run.

Felt a bit stiff and sore during the run but I think that was mostly due to lack of sleep.
Saturday was the Nave-Sink-or-Swim Open Water event. I always look forward to this race as it is like ‘opening day’ for the triathlon season. Everyone comes out to race the 1.2 or 2.4 mile swims and meet and catch up, chat about the upcoming race season and just have a good time. Since I hadn’t done a LOT of swimming and almost all of it has been at/around MAF I had no idea what I was going to be able to do. Plus this would only be my 3rd swim in the new wetsuit. My plan was to go out at a moderate pace at the start, then push on the second loop. The swim was counter-clockwise

, meaning that the return leg of each loop would be against the current, but close to shore. Since the 2.4 racers were the last wave, we got the brunt of the current, and the 2nd loop was MUCH harder than the 1st. As it turns out, I finished with a respectable 1:06, 32/34 split, good enough for 44th OA and 3rd AG. That was a pleasant surprise.
After the swim, we had a nice group come back to the house for more training. Since I only did 20 miles on the bike the day before, I figured I’d split my run with 45 min, then 20 miles on the bike, then another 20-30 min run. The first 45 min run felt pretty good. I kept in Z1

, and just plugged along. I jogged out the last 5 min, then got on the bike for the IBSP out and back. I did take a bottle of UCan with me, just to experiment with it, and planned on drinking it during the hour long ride. With the wind off the water, I was able to just get aero and cruise along. However as I rode, I started feeling better and stronger. I kept waiting for the HR to get way above Z1 but it didn’t happen. The out and back inside the park was averaging over 17mph, almost 2mph better than Saturday. On the 2nd run, I ran at about 12min/mi for the first bit, then at the turn back to the house, decided to just push and see what happened and ended up clocking a 10:30 mile. HR was well into Z4, but I never felt like I was losing form, or really struggling at all. Looking back on it, Sunday was the best training day I’ve had since OHS, and probably a good bit before OHS.
I really ignored diet most of the weekend. Keto on Friday was 1.4, but on Saturday was down to 0.7 and 0.3 on Sunday. I didn’t bother measuring on Monday since I knew it would be way down. I’ll pick it back up this week and see how quickly I can get back above 1.0.
Lessons learned:
- Consistency is key. If I keep plugging away, I will see results
- MAF/Z1 work is real, and the speed WILL be there when needed
- Carbs aren’t the enemy. The are just another tool in the bag
- My Roka wetsuit completely and totally rocks
This is the first full week on a ketonic diet, and I’m getting the hang of it. It’s still a pain in the ass to prepare stuff, measure, and log everything but it’s getting a bit easier. I’m finding some recipes that are pretty easy and quick, and taste really good.

, there has been great progress. Surprising in fact. I’m down 7.3lbs since May 12, and down 2% body fat. My ketones have gone from 0.1, to 1.2 over the course of the week, with a high of 1.4 when I took a reading right after my run on Wed. I feel good, haven’t had ‘brain fog’ or the 3pm slump all week. I don’t feel like I’m dieting as the high fat levels keep me feeling full. I still miss sweets though. There are some Hagen-Daz bars that are mocking me everytime I open the freezer. I figure it’s a good stoic practice to keep them there. I got a recipe book of “sweet and savory fat bombs” and am going to make up several of the “sweet” treats to see how they work out and can satisfy my sweet tooth.

, but a lot of foot cramping. Tues AM was a weight workout and Tues PM was a hard bike ride and a quick run off the bike. The ride and run felt really great. Wed I ran a hardish-6 miles. It was harder than I thougth as my HRV reading on Thurs AM was high indicating recovery was needed. I opted to ignore the advice and try to ride on Thurs night. That didn’t turn out so well. About 20 min into the group ride I knew I had nothing in the tank to keep up with the group

, unless I was going to turn myself inside-out. Knowing that I would be REALLY busy on Friday and unable to fully recovery, continuing the ride would have set me up for a miserable race at the Brooklyn Half Marathon on Saturday. So I dropped out of the group and just soft pedaled back to the car.
I’ve got no expectations for Saturdays ‘race’ and I’m treating it just as a long, steady training run. My only goal is consistent pacing splits at MAF HR.

On the plan, this was a recovery week, but the tale of the tape says otherwise. I felt pretty good after the marathon. A bit stiff and sore on Monday, so I just did a slow walk with Tula. Tuesday I felt much better, and did a faster walk with her, then a quick 1:15 bike ride that felt AWESOME. Since I was using different muscle groups my legs actually felt fresh. Both Mon & Tues I worked from home and used the standing desk a lot, which helped reduce the pressure on my pos chain, and ease recovery.
Wednesday I swam at Berkely Masters, but cut the workout a bit short, 2400m. For the month of May, I’m trying to stay in ketosis, as nutrition experiment. Wednesday’s dinner was a bit much right before swimming, and I was getting a good bit nauseous. Plus I still felt a bit of fatigue from the marathon, and wanted to save something in the tank for the ride I was leading on Thurs. That ride went pretty well, but I could definitely feel the fatigue. Nowhere near as smooth and strong as I felt on Tuesday.

It was windy and chilly, but a fun ride with friends. My plan was to keep in in MAF as much as possible. As it turned out it was also a day of flat tire issues for a couple of my riding partners

, one of which had to get sagged back to the start. I waited with her for the support car to pick her up, and that hour-plus of downtime made the ride more like two 30+ milers, than one metric century. On the second “half” of the ride I kept in MAF through the first 7-8 miles, but as it was getting late, and one of my friends was waiting at the car for me, I hustled it in.
During the ride I got really, really low of fuel. At one point, feeling a bit hypoglycemic. So I bailed on the keto fueling I was using up till then, and stuffed in a PB&J, some sort of “organic” bar thing, and headed back out. I felt really good and strong the rest of the way, and could feel the fuel working but I worried I’d be back to square one ketone wise.
I had a ketone-diet type dinner (roast chicken, salad) and was surprised when my ketones measured the same on Sunday AM as they did on Saturday AM. I’m barely in ketosis, so we’ll see how much further I progress this coming week.
Speaking of which, I’m in suburban D.C. this week attending training for work. As it turns out the training center is 2.5 miles from the hotel, and a decent walk each way. I’m planning on doing a good bit of running & walking while I’m here, since I can’t bike or swim. I just wish I had my foam roller with me. I’ll have to improvise something…
