Training has been going well but still the weather is the main barrier to big riding miles... There has not been a week in the last two months that has not been effected by rain...
Thankfully this week we are off for our midwinter break :) For the 4th time in four years we are off to nicer weather... This time it is again just a quick flight across the ditch to the warmer shoes of the Sunshine Coast in Aussieland. Last year this turned out to be a great break with lots of riding in nice conditions and some good base miles but in...
Plus to finish off the holiday race a Half IM! That should be interesting to see where I'm at.
On that note I did another set of 4x15m efforts on Sat. I planned to do these outside and they would have mostly likely been 20min efforts, but with the weather the way it was I did them on the trainer. I have done two other sets like this in the past month and these ones turned out to be the best so far. Power averages were 298, 299, 302, and 306W... not too bad! Image to follow...
Running has gone quite well and am now up to a 1hr 20m long run. This week I plan to hit 21km. We'll see. I am having some trouble with the right calf so who knows. I'll be a little overly cautious to make sure I do not do any major damage before the half next month. No speed work though... maybe a few strides starting next week.
