Still feel awful. No training.

1hr 15 ride home. Should know better than taking an extended ride home in a Friday afternoon. Generally, terrible driving throughout the ride.

Still feel off. Tested the water with a 6k run.
25 minutes. 74m elevation.
All good so far, but AVERAGE HR was 174.
May give it another day off.

1.6km paddle boarding.
800m skins swim - open water in between the boarding. Took my goggles, cap and tow float.
Easy. 1:55/100m (which included being held up by my lead out lady 
)

The time doesnāt tell the whole story. I met a lady who was training for Arc100 and this will be her third attempt (timed out at Pendeen). She looked a lot fitter than me! We chatted for about 10 mins and I didnāt stop my watch. Tried two or three new trails that I got lost on had to double back.
Spoke to a guy with some dogs about how much Wells had changed. Had to let a farmer know one of his ewes was limping badly. Then after all that, about two kms from Wells I saw a tourist that was lost hiking over from Wookey Hole and was was trying to get to the Cathedral, so I walked him there and took the long way home.
Not sure how much training got done but it was an eventful morning.

We sometimes go up that way & I always think Rodney Stoke is more like the name of an older gent youād meet at the pub, than an actual place.

Thereās a ton of places like around here (Charlton Mackerel !) Iām not why Rodney Stoke shows up large when I take that trail, Iām quite some way from it and a long way above.

50kms to ride out to Shepperton Lake and back, to watch some mates do some tri training. A very long coffee stop so @Poet would be mortified.

Major loss of mojo this week. Managed 2 * runs and 2 * swims. Then nothing. Bit crap, but busy with the family all weekend.
Hoping for a tad better next week.

Yeah, illness has killed my week too. Nothing of note since Wednesday. Definitely feel like Iāve just been suffering from form of fatigue then a fever. Feeling much better today despite putting a shift in on the garden, must have sweated everything out. Roll on race week and rain!
