Time trialling again... and running!

A busy end of July & early August. Holidays, work travel.

Last night was my first outing on H10/10 this year. A lumpy kinda exposed course. First TT since the beginning of July too.


I'll admit it was hard. I prefer to TT with a visor rather than sunnies as the vis is better; the sweat dripping off my nose is not.

It's not a fast course, so a half-respectable 25:02 (ouch) was the result. The usual "if I'd known I'd have broken 25..." followed. 

In other news I have been running again for 4 or so weeks. It was a bit 'interesting' to begin with but the body has settled back in to the groove. Plus over 100 eccentric heel raises/drops each day. Building calf strength.

It's great to be out there again. This week I have increased to 26km/week spread over 4 days. Following a Finke/Daniels/Pfitzinger 3 week hold followed by 1.5km/day increase. 

Long run is now a huge 10km. Looking forward to getting some miles under my belt then hitting the track end of Sep/early Oct.

Happy days.
