Outlaw Journey week 9 (build week 1)

Base period... done!
Varying degrees of success - have I completed every session? No, but at least I have got in the swing of training for 3 disciplines, whilst working, and keeping a balance with family time.

So the stats...
S&C: 2 x sessions
Swim: 1200m (46mins)
Run: 36.2k (2hrs 58mins)
Bike: 99.7k (3hrs 35mins)

1st week of build period and yet again best laid plans meant the long ride didn't happen, although I did do last weeks long ride at the start of the week so all looks better than it could have done!
1st brick session went well, as did the long run day which I incorporated a park run into the middle of! - Colney ParkRun was decidedly sticky after all of that snow and associated moisture, but still got round in sub-21 and a 7th place so pretty pleased really :-)

Starting to get a bit of a knack for predicting the distance/route that will allow me to achieve the time that the plan dictates - that's either talent or i'm just a little but sad?!

Looking ahead, longer sessions and a busier bike focused week next week, challenge to squeeze it all in. I am still in 2 minds about entering the Fritton XC half or 10k too on 25th - watch this space.
