A good week

This has been the best week's training i've managed to put in since being injured, and possibly since before the marathon. Still not running though.

Last Sunday had me out on the bike for about 85km. Down to Ardrossan and back in just under 3 hours. Head wind out and no obvious tail wind felt on the return. It must've been there though, because i came back much quicker than i went!

Monday, about 25km of cycling.

Tuesday, more cycling. This time 30km'ish

Wednesday, a change of pace. 2km recovery swim.

Thursday, 11km walk with 3-4kg on my back.

Friday, back on the bike. 35km.

Saturday. Same route as last Sunday with a visit to Port Glasgow first, to boost the distance. 95km covered. Again, that westerly wind slowed me on the way out and helped on the way back, although it didn't particularly feel like it was assisting.

Today, a jaunt to Largs. The wind was worserer than yesterday and i could feel it helping me back up the road until about 10km to go. At this point it seemed to be coming from all angles. 58km.

I'm not sure whether i prefer miles or km. Km sounds more impressive but all my distances are measured in miles in my head first of all. I'll just put whatever i feel like at that particular time.

Total Walked 11ish km or 7ish miles
Swam 2km or 1.25 miles
Cycled 243km or 150ish miles
Time training 11.5 hours

Was having some calf tenderness early in the week when climbing but none for the past couple of days. Physio again on Wednesday, so will hopefully be back attempting something resembling a run late next week.

A good week!
