Went training twice… well went to start, then stopped after 5 mins.
That’s never happened to me before?!
I’m far from the most gifted triathlete, but motivation wise I’m normally bordering on elite for an oldie…. going to sack it off for a day or so and tri again.
Short n sweaty treadmill run this morning. 30mins 12kph with 2x18kph intervals. Managed to hold this pace for 2mins this time - up 30s from last time. Hit (and held for 15s) a new maxHR of 164bpm which was hard enough to make me retch afterwards. Just made it outside in time…
Club Handicap race
7km of mixed terrain, with steps, “scree” and a hill
7th on the night, but in a course record, bloody sweltering and humid.
Awful conditions
I have two choices. I can hit the trails straight from my door but will have to do some out and backs on some sections to make the distance, plus there won’t be much elevation.
The other option is run the 8km of pavement to get to the start of the SDW, do some of that and then get back from there another 8km of pavement. (parking is only 4hrs, so I can’t drive to SDW).
Will decide later, usually just as I’m heading out the door
