Training Review - Week 11 - March 10 to 16
Monday, swim session started really badly. But by the end I was back to top speed. Putting in another pair of sub-7 400m reps at the end of the session.
Tuesday I did an easy jog around Dyce. I think I have found the cause of my up and down form. I think it is related to when I take my asthma medication. I am going to experiment a bit over the next couple of weeks and see if that is the case. Before today's run I missed my morning dose of my asthma medication and the run was a real struggle. Looking back at the previous week the bad days tend to be where I have gone out for my session within an hour or so of taking my inhaler. This may be further influenced by the cold air.
In the evening I took the opportunity to grab all of my weights, core and stretching sessions for the week.
Wednesday I missed a trip to the cinema as my cinema-buddy was sick. Instead I took the opportunity for some extra miles and did the reverse version of Tuesday's run around Dyce. Took about the same time but on tired legs.
Thursday was something of an adventure. Separate blog for that but need to hold off on it for a while until the Police finish with things. In the meantime, stolen mountain bike to look out for:
Friday was a cinema trip to Need For Speed. Much better than I expected.
Saturday I went out for a longer run. I wanted to put in a score for this month's Strava 10k challenge and to get my miles up to the larger total that I have set for this week.
Sunday I skipped the Kintore ride as they were planning a hilly 50-miler which is more than I need or want to be doing. Instead I went out for a solo ride. There was a tough wind to deal with in parts and solo road biking is pretty boring so I cut it a little bit short of the plan for the week.
Apart from the excitement of burglars on Thursday night it was a pretty good week all in. Another week where a few more bike miles would have been good but happy enough with everything else.
