Nothing today. But a couple of hours of bathroom graft that gave my back and arms a bloody good workout.

Off camping tmw night with the girls, so that’s my Sunday am long ride gone. Will try to get a couple of hours on the turbo in the eve instead.

Spent the whole day climbing outside yesterday - everything is aching this morning!! Had a good leg workout too, with carrying the climbing gear down and then up a really steep trying not to fall on my arse slope!!

Was meant to be 25km this morning but my head wasn’t there at all. Bit of a gamble but decided on taking a rest day.

Have to load the car and head to Mum’s anyway, so that’s a workout in itself but hopefully a reset today will see things ship shape again.

A very well paced pyramid swim this morning.
:joy::joy::joy:

In my defence, my pace is awful with pull and/or paddles and I was swapping them in and out all morning.

Pure swims were all the same pace. Which is nice :sunglasses:

Yeah it’s fine, felt cold first thing and arriving at our place at 1 am.

Just the one loop today, I’ll be back later in the week to do two more.

Really enjoyed that, there are some rapid descents - I overtook a car going over 70kph at one point :see_no_evil:
