SaturdayA 10k of sorts!woke up with dodgy stomach which settled over breakfast!
1 and 1/4 hour drive to Stratford
Dodgy stomach back.
Started warm up and after approx 4 loo visits, stomach had settled. So to the start line. Now feeling slightly dizzy!
set off like a lunatic and added a stitch to the now sore stomach. Plodded round and then had a crazy race for the line in the last km. Why?
1 and 1/4 hour drive home! Grrr!
SundayNo after effects from yesterday. Not sure what was going on. Been about 80% raw for 3 weeks. Wondering if the pre-race porridge was contributing factor. Probably not as I woke up with it. Possibly nerves - a bit too determined to go hard! Anyhow nothing systemic to worry about.
So after an easy day it's time to get on with it. Going to be dark by 4.30, so I decided on long turbo.
3 hour Turbo. Spinervals 13.0 Tough Love - my favourite. Felt good, this is right in my comfort zone, 3 hours about 10 beats below threshold.
75 Press ups (sets of 25, 20, 15, 10, 5) Oh yes doing the 100 press up program from youtube. My Upper body strength sucks at the moment!
and while I'm there, might as well........
100 sit ups (5 X 20)
Monday2200m Swim as
500 warm up - mixed stroke
5 X 300 averaging about 5 min (25 min pace.....Mmm need to get weight down and strength up)
200 cool down
short and sweet
40 min Turborecovery session with 5 x 3 min @155bpm, 5 x 2 min @155bpm, 3 X 30 seconds building....all out in last 10 sec......yeah blew away a few cobwebs!
