STIL if I read that right your car ends up back at home but your family are deserted 100 miles away with no transport...  Are they still there?

I thought I had done well with a 70 miler yesterday only to log on and see Seren's exploits. We're not worthy! Awesome performance. Top bombing.

And someone should be able to point you at some sprint specific training plans to help with structuring the week. Beginner Triathlete I think have some good ones.

Looks like great training... if you want to join the army.

2hr swim sessions are long. Especially if you have not refined your technique yet. Get as much technique help from the swim club and focus on that ahead of speed/distance initially.

Run outside more. Cycle more and outside more aswell where possible.

As Rafiki says you also should have a complete day off to recover/rebuild.

Assuming all other factors are equal the tiredness is likely to come from the body reacting to the consistent increase in training load. Makes it even more important to recover (eat and sleep) well.

I tend to go through phases during training campaigns ranging from being highly motivated to knock out each session right down to cba to train at all. There is quite a delicate balance between knuckling down and making sure you do the sessions balanced against sometimes listening to your body and easing off to prevent injury/illness and a longer layoff.

I've currently hit a bit of a plateau after a successful base phase where I am struggling to motivate myself and fit in all the Fink sessions as it Builds. I'm now doing deals with myself about what is critical (long bikes and runs) versus every session being comlpeted.
