Nice training (as always) Happy birthday!!!

I’m shagged and have a long day/night of work - unlikely to get a swim in so this recovery week is turning into a no training week

Treadmill at work today.

Felt tired so started with 4 minute reps, thinking I might have to drop down to 3 minutes.
Then forgot when I was supposed to stop, so did 5 minutes.
Felt better so started doing 5 minute reps.
Then felt tired, so a 4 minute (but nearly went flying) and then a 3 minute

5 x 4:00 / 5 x 5:00 / 1 x 4:00 / 1 x 3:00

Another 3:10 on the bike today, it was warm and I had a thicker top on than I needed :roll_eyes: had a route in mind with quite a few hills and the first 30k was into a strong southerly. When I was about halfway there was a road closed sign, don’t know why they couldn’t put something where I left the main road! A couple of locals thought it was still shut so I stopped for a brew and decided heading back the way I went was best and padded it a bit as I headed back.

I was feeling pretty lethargic but looking at my Garmin stats I was probably putting in more effort than I thought, although I’m a bit suspicious of the powermeter TBH.

AP was 205 and there was an hour into the wind on a rolling section that was something like 225W.

It also included ~1000m of ascent which was a mixture of longer steady drags and a few short sharp climbs.

I am pretty tired so it’s likely the power was like that and why I’m tired. Fairly sure the saddle needs to come up a bit on that bike as well.

Won’t be doing much running this week so might get towards 10 hours on the bike!

That sounds like a strong ride to me.

Gym first thing.

20 minute treadmill run at lunch. Calf still holding up without issue, although my word it was a warm one. Hopefully cleared to try running outside next week!
