Where am I???

Well, I seem to have completely lost track of where I am in the bigger scheme of things....thanks to two weekends away, lots of work, having to make some travel and visa plans for the trip to Switzerland (a huge pain!!!), etc etc. So today I sat down and had a long hard look at where I am...Only to discover that I'm in a recovery week and didn't even know. I'm not going to actually do the recovery week as I had two bad weeks thanks to travel's, so an update on what I've done since last post:

Saturday
Bike: 90km - 03:41:00
Did the Surrey hills...on my own, mental toughness bla bla. Staples, Ranmore, Box hill and back the same way. I went really early, so quite nice being on my way home when everyone else was heading out. The hills were tough and killed my legs. I was pretty much useless on Saturday night, could barely get off the couch.

Sunday
Bike: 31km - 01:15:00
This was supposed to be a brick session, but I barely left home when I realised the legs were just too tired from the day before. This made me really miserable as I wondered how the heck I was going to do this on race day. Think it's time to lower those expectations a bit....

Tuesday
Run: 10,2km in 58 mins
Swim: 3400m in 1hr30min
This was really tough as I haven’t done much swimming in a while thanx to the pools being closed over Easter break and me doing that SwimForTri thing. Going to have to get my butt to a few more swim sessions.

I also have to decide on my wet suite, i.e. what to do….I had a Snugg made-to-measure, but when it arrived, it was to big in parts. I left it as it was soon after that I fell pregnant with The Little Man, so the wet suite being too big worked in my favour, but I need to swim with it and decide if I’m going to send it in to be made smaller or if I’m going to leave it as is. The swim is quite short so not sure if it’s worth all the effort of sending it to Cornwall. I’ll need to decide soon if I have any hope of getting it back in time for the race.

Last week ended up being a pretty good week, I managed 9.5 hours of training. Result!!!
