Monday 21st June, Had a good fun core strength session, went water skiing, this was my first ski of the year, arms ached, legs ached was not in good shape, but had a good time.
Tuesday, went to Fritton after work for a swim, I did 1500m trying to concentrate on getting my stroke long and strong, previously in the aquathlon events I have come out of the water after 400m knackered, the swim was killing me, so I think I need to change my stroke and slow it down, conserve energy and come out of the water in better shape.
Wednesday, did an easy bike to and from work, total of 20 miles, then in the evening went round the island, I rode the first 3-4 miles as a warm up then did alternate miles easy and then hard, the hard effort I tried to maintain a speed above 24mph, I kept this up for 6 hard efforts before I was getting tired, trying to vary my pace and get my legs used to pushing harder, I need to find more sustained speed on the bike.
Thursday, we went out for a ride to Bungay and round the saints, the total distance was 39 miles and took 1 hr 59 mins, a good ride for me, felt strong all night and did plenty of riding on the front of the pack, the average speed was 19.6 mph, pretty good for a ride out on MTB's
Friday, ran the scores did the run in 32.44, legs were heavy so did the run with hard efforts up the hills and easy down, weather conditions were hot and humid.
Saturday, went to Fritton again to do another 1500m, did the swim in 25.31, still concentrating on swimming with a long and strong stroke.
Sunday didn't do any exercise, but did drink plenty of wine in the evening!
