3/4's of the way through the base period of training and so with a time crunch week I had a stab at doing the weeks training in just 4 days!
Swim 1000m
Bike 103.4k (4hrs 9mins)
Run 28.8k (2hrs 21mins)
1 x S&C
Ok so I missed a swim and a strength session but an increased duration/distance swim, solid runs and wet/windswept riding makes up for it doesn't it?
Thus far, training feels good, good mix of sessions and balancing well with life. As the base period nears completion my reflection so far would be that swimming remains the nemesis that needs overcoming and so will be having a word with myself in the next couple of weeks...
Issues are efficient breathing, improving technique and stamina - watch this space.
Kit-wise, I'm pretty much there in terms of what I need. But the challenge of what I want is a whole other story!
Would love a turbo trainer, also I'm on the verge of adding to my burgeoning trainer collection. Off to the Bike & Triathlon show in London this week so amidst the freebies, I may well spend some cash?!
More next week...
