Training for a shorter Tri

maths it's January and a lot of new years resolutions. Give it a couple of weeks and they will get the idea or go back to watching telly.

Okay, so managed to swim for 30mins tonight all fc. Lost track of laps and distance but only had a few recovery breaks. Really chuffed. 50min turbo done on Wed. All on track at the moment. Bike tomorrow and run Sun hopefully completes the week. 

Hope you're doing okay DB.... Taking it easy. 

I wish all with colds a speedy recovery and Maths a visit from Nanny McFee. Have a good weekend peeps!

Okay so turbo not done... Took painkillers last night due to shoulder stopping me sleeping last few nights. Woke up very late and now going to work. Might try and get done after work... Wake the neighbour's! 

Keep an eye on the shoulder MrsD....what brought it on?

I think moving a patient... Don't seem to generally notice it but is difficult to get comfortable and sleep. The not sleeping is the worst bit really. Turbo not done. How the devil are you Mr Cat?

MrsD - hope your shoulder is ok

nice 7b mile run/walk this morning, running still feels so much harder than it used to, but knee wasn't grumbling too much which is a good sign

One whole week and done nowt. Nothing from quacks yet. I AM GOING UP THE FERKIN' WALL!!!!!

But ticker is stable most of the time. And beta blockers suck!

Curiously, last parkrun I did, managed 199bpm.

Hey ho, not game over yet.

Cat5, how was the XC? Was it muddy, slimy, hard and utterly childish?

I'm down for G3 XC next weekend. I am tempted to walk it and see what happens. Had a half hour amble this arvo. (())

I was a bit like Mrs Digger, I overslept and missed swimming. Busy doing things and skipped the turbo yesterday as well. Today I managed 10 mins warm up on turbo then a very cold but pleasant 2.5 mile run/walk, upping the running to 3 mins at a time. Felt hard towards the end but good.

DB take it easy I do not want to have to visit you when I am at work.
Ambles for half an hour sound enough until cleared by the medics.

Day 1 of training starts tomorrow and I know I can do it - its a rest day.

DB - no XC next weekend, don't be silly. When do you see the cardiologist?

Still waiting. Will hit the works Private health as soon as see the cardio.

DB - take care of yourself.

Steady - enjoy your first day of training plan

MrsD - ouch! Hope it heals soon.

Well having done no training since last Tuesday I simply couldn't cope any longer. My throat is still very sore but I'm not feeling quite so 'ill' so I've just been out of a slow 3mile potter. And very nice it was too.

Am a bit worried about ST. Has anyone heard from/seen him? Is he posting on other threads?

I think he posted to say he had received his kit on the kit thread, but haven't seen any other posts by him

ST - WHERE ARE YOU???? hope you are ok

Hey all,

2 runs last week, cycle to vb plus a tough training session and one easier one. Very sniffley but going for a lunch time easy run today. Motorbike failed MOT at the weekend so couple of weeks train/cycle to work now. Will try to do at least one longer (about 10mi) bike at lunch time one day.

Really need to go for a longer slower run at some point (would not quantify it as LSR as it won't be long), thinking about 4miles just to get over that 3mi curse I have for lunch time runs. But weekends are not kind atm. Match on Sunday and week on Friday off to Finland for my sister's wedding.

DB - take care of yourself!
