Week 16 – last speed week

Monday
Bike – 1hr 15

Easy recovery ride after the half. All felt fine, managed to cycle to Richmond park and did two laps. Hills hurt a bit, but otherwise fine…pleasantly surprised!!

Tuesday
Swim – 1hr

50m speed session. Some news on the wetsuit, I should have it back by the end of next week…if all goes well. Yippee!!! Had to do a bit of sweet talking on the phone on Wednesday. A club mate has very kindly offered me her old one to use till I get mine back...so swimming still on the cards for the weekend.

Wednesday
Run - Richmond Park relays (3 miles) 22:22.

Felt surprisingly good. Managed to run the whole thing hard as I could, was only overtaken by one runner, and I managed to catch one chap on the finish straight. So very happy with that. Usually I get overtaken by everyone and their dog!!! Maybe one day I’ll actually learn how to run!!! Wouldn’t that be nice!!!

Thursday
Turbo 1hr 25min – 6 X 6min hard, 2 min recovery.

Really hard work that. Am so happy it’s the last of my speed sessions. Can’t actually believe I did them all…bloody crazy!!

Weather is improving just in time for the last big weekend!!
