Training Week 2

This weeks training has gone well apart from an Abductor Muscle strain, which now seems to be getting better. I’ve allowed myself 2 rest days this week as I am doing Hartlepool Marina Triathlon on Sunday and don’t want to go into it too tired, even though its just a shorter Triathlon (Sprint Distance)

So, this week looked like: -

SUN	AM	00:50	SWIM	A steady swim of 2k first thing in the morning to help me loosen up
SUN	AM	01:15	RUN	Straight out of the pool and out for an 8mile+ easy run
MON	PM	00:50	RUN	As soon as I got home from work, an easy run off road run around the local woods, finished off with 5min of stretching
MON	PM	00:30	OTHER	Later in the evening a bit of circuit training to start preparing my body for when I hit the gym during the winter
TUE	PM	01:00	RUN	Steady paced run at running club at 75% MHR with a stretching session at the end
WED	AM	00:50	BIKE	MTB commute to work, starting to find this much easier … its surprising what a difference a few rides can make
WED	PM	01:30	BIKE	5 mile laps, doing 1 easy then 1 hard, my fastest lap was number 4 at 14:25 secs - it was very windy but I felt good
THU	PM	02:00	SWIM	Again, a session with the masters club at Dustan pool, did just short of 4k … was again hard work
FRI	__	__	__	REST
SAT	__	__	__	REST

Which works out at : -

SWIM - 2 SESSIONS - 02:50
BIKE - 2 SESSIONS -02:20
RUN - 3 SESSION - 03:05
OTHER - 1 SESSION - 00:30
