No riding for 2 days due to flu like symptoms. I thought about 'manning up' and hitting the turbo last night but I chickened out, just as well really as I felt terrible this morning and I don't suppose a work out would have helped. I drove to work today and took 10-12 minutes longer, go figure.
It was yesterday's swim and it took me a stately 65 mins. But I did go out for a 6 mile run in freezing drizzle this morning; that takes me 65 mins, too.
rugby game did not require my services as a referee, saved me a three hour round trip
45 minutes session on turbo - working on my 'lactate tolerance'. No idea what it means but the training plan says it is a good thing to develop. I don't have much.
Last night did around 45mins on the turbo, the last 15 mins was spinning 120rpm ish a really low gear, the rest was hovering around lactate threshold - ouch!
One hour 52 minutes in very cold conditions around hilly country lanes. Mileage 31.9 Average HR 135 - 76.7%MHR, 16 minutes in LT zone HR 151-159, 85-90% MHR. Found it very hard going and much slower than usual. I don't go well in cold conditions.
I got drunk last night which wasn't a good idea given that I'm still all bunged up with this cold. I felt like I really had to push myself to get on the bike this morning. It was chucking it down and I was soaked within a minute of leaving the house but after a mile it felt good and I was riding quite quickly (for a mountain bike) and passsed a skinny bloke on a road bike. The rest of this morning I've been coughing up masses of phlegm ergh.
had to run from halls to uni (bit over a mile) to make a 4pm deadline on a piece of coursework, my printer decided to start chewing up the paper rather than printing which delayed me some what did make it though- out in the peaks both days this weekend.
