Good Week- bike run brick

Two Wednesdays ago J and I attempted a bike run brick. It was unsuccessful for me. Since I did it at the practice tri I knew I could do it now. So we did another 1/2 bike and this time set the goal of 3 miles at the track instead of 2. I fought hard on the first two laps as my legs again felt like, well, bricks. I began to feel about 75% normal by about 1.5 miles. It wasn't bad but I felt sooooo sloooooow even though J said my time was my normal pace. I was pleased that I completed it.
