Since my last post my training has been a little hit and miss when compared to the plan from my coach. I have not managed to fit in all the sessions that were scheduled. Admittedly I didn’t feel up to some of the sessions and some of the others were missed/delayed due to work. I have commented on this before (work interfering) and have stopped doing on-call which has helped with the training so that is positive.
On the training front, I was away for a few days in early May in Spain for a training “topup”. Got some good hill work done along with a PB swim of 31:14 (give or take a couple of seconds) for 1500m. Did a “almost” Olympic while I was there – 1500m swim followed by 56km (ish) cycle and a 9km run. Did not time the whole thing and did not feel too knackered afterwards which was positive.
So on the whole I am happy with the training I’ve been doing which is a positive thing!
