A good week this week. It was always going to be a challenge as coach Murphy had set me a tough programme, which just happened to coincide with a very busy work schedule. However, I managed to do everything, bar one 70 minute run session. The downside was that I had to load most of the training to the back end of the week, so I finished feeling quite fatigued. Going through my training records has highlighted a pattern of missing one of my sessions the day after a rest day, and this is something that I am going to have to address. (Should be easy to solve now that the days are getting longer). Highlight of this week was undoubtedly Ian's bike/run session at Preston Sports Arena. Two hours of cycling, including a 1 hour trial, riding 'through and off' in gangs of 8. Superb interval training, although riding at a slightly faster speed than normal made the run section (pyramids going from 200M to 1200M in 200M increments) rather painful!
Totals for the week: 11km swim, 119Km Bike, 48Km run. A key milestone too - since the start of Feb I have exceeded the total swim distance required for the Deca (Just need to get fit enough to do it all in 24 hours now!) Bring it!
