Only a triathlete could consider running 14 times up a mountain, a “day off” :smile:

Long sleeves here this morning, first time for ages.

Fancied some run intervals this morning. No particular reason.

They were absolute shite but I enjoyed it

Sounds like my swimming

5:45 alarm.
Hour in the gym and a short 15 min dreadmill run on very heavy legs.

Fancy getting strong over winter.

8km recovery run this morning, on the treadmill…

Just watched the Col Saunders 5k workouts,

I saw a van earlier today with Lionel Saunders on it :smile:

:sweat_smile:

Luckily I was meeting friends, so it forced me out. Think I’d have bailed otherwise.

Cocked up my garmin, so not sure how far I rode yet. I’ve got the file to my friend’s house. Then they’re gonna send me a file for the ride we did together, then another one home. Totally user error forgetting to start the garmin! :roll_eyes:

Was OK at spinning on the flats and stuff, but was abso-bloody-lutely empty on the climbs. I was deffo the one man grupetto! :joy: Hammering the descents to get back on.

Weirdly the last hour felt better than the 3 or so before it. Though looking down at my calves right now, I think they’re trying to send me a message in morse code. Twitching like crazy! :joy: :joy:

97.2km in total. Had I not messed my garmin I’d have been tempted to do the other 3km for sure!

Training peaks has pretty much the same tss for my easy (with a few hills) 4 hr ride as my run yesterday!

F**k right off! Yesterday left me in pieces. Today, I’m ‘fine’.

You definitely get more credit for duration over intensity in all of these calculations. Best way to get the scores up is to forget to stop your watch at the end of a run/ride and get credit for 2 hours sat in a chair.

Do you have the garmin “number of hours to recover” score for them both?

(just as that is based on HRV at the end of the effort, not just the training peaks crap which indicates your FTP is wrong btw)

On the basis that something is better than nothing, I jumped on Zwift for a bit.

18.0kms, 33mins, 166mtrs, 217 av watts

Went to the gym tonight deadlift 100kg, which is heaviest since lockdown eased. But went with my daughter (aged 12) for 1sr time :slightly_smiling_face:

Had this afternoon off. I could have gone for a long run but really wanted to chill out. Jumped on Zwift and did Innsbruck (not quite all).
