Welcome back, or have I just missed a post or two?
I post in the Wordle thread every day!
arw, sadly that is now behind me with our daughter, this time last year was her last year at uni, back to the grind, yeap still doing that.
Oh, I did some trainning.
Sunday
Ill, thought I see if I really was, made 1km
Monday
Sleep, sleep, nothing else except as little as possible at work
Tuesday
Against advice; a little run, doing nothing was driving me mad (and was feeling a bit better)
8km easy run (had only intended 4km, but it was lovely to be out in the fresh air, although a bit muggy)
Wednesday
6km Easy
32m very easy bike but HR very elevated, so rest, sleep recovery the main focus for the next⦠?
Cycled home from work
No watch
No power record
No ā¦Strava! ![]()
Also felt weird. I think I liked it. Iām not really training so I wonāt post in this thread either. Secret exerciseā¦could it be the way forward? ![]()
I specifically meant the training thread⦠i dont enter the ādarksideā these days.
Although less daylight I might make a return.
Was supposed to climb this evening, but my climbing partner cancelled last minute. So, 40 mins strength: abs and glutes today.
Yesterday, gym first thing and 20 minute run at lunch.
Same again today.
No Strava means it didnāt happen ![]()
5km trail run and 40 mins strength: full body today (CG epic 3, day 4)
I think might be happy in the āit didnāt happenā space.
And then, mysteriously, he disappeared from the internetā¦
Managed my fruity approved hour for the day, split pretty much 50/50 between a swim and easy Zwift.
If the weather holds tomorrow Iām planning on a couple of hours on the bike outside.
Thursday
Still painful blocked ears but much better than the last few days.
More very easy ticking over work mainly in the hope it would clear the Eustachian congestion.
2km easy
36 minutes ~150 watts, average 107bpm (max 116bpm) still elevated for the power and HR drift when there normally isnt any at that effort.
45 minute steady run.
Friday
Pool - 500m 11 minutes, best 400m of the year 8:32 ish, just happened not pushing and not fast but good for me.
5km 27-minutes ish, hammered it down otherwise would have done 15km+
Still not rightā¦
Possibly last OWS before Spain tomorrow.
Gym first thing. Humid.
Saturday
Open water swim 3050m (longest ever OWS) 1hr15 ish
40 minutes 7km easy run
30 minute spin class. Rolling hills, apparently.
Sunday
26-minutes with a 5 minute TT effort
Years best by 2w for 5-minutes 260w
Canāt clear the ear infection but at least it seems I have a decent base fitness.
5hr 35 minutes for the week, still ticking over. The IM is going to be very uncomfortable but I guess thats why we do thisā¦
