I've been running my Tues-Thurs-Sun routine for a few weeks now, save for the time I was in LA last week when I didn't ride and only ran every day. When I left home there was 6"+ snow on the ground and it was 25, when I arrived in LA it was 70s - and 70s every morning by 10am. Most days I'd wait until 4:30ish when the sun started to set and get 45-60 minutes in, a couple days I did mornings in the sun and kind of regretted it, it punished my intervals.
Back home and into the 20s to low 40s, I am much much happier. I think I will spend a week in LA for warm weather acclimation before my Ironman races.I did sign up for the LA Triathlon next year, it's just before IMFL and should be an interesting experience. I am going to use it to practice traveling with my bike, riding an unfamiliar course, and acclimating to the weather.
Anyway, back to running tomorrow, today was some bike intervals. Mile repeats I think, probably 3-4 of them, with 1/2 mile inbetween. My HRM battery is dying so I'll have to replace before I go - it's losing contact with the chest strap and fading in and out.
