Right so wine and in-laws prevented me from completing last weeks training (but I did get 2 swims in so not a complete write off!) so this week will be better!
This week:
Monday - 40mins run (at work)
Tuesday - 30mins run (either work or Tready)
Wednesday - rest
Thursday - speedwork (tready)
Friday - rest
Saturday - Charlie and the Chocolate Factory!
Sunday - 75mins run + swim with Gnome
Today I am going to try something slightly different as I am on the road. After Thursday's run I am interested to see if I have gained speed or if the faster runs were due to the fact that they were short! So I will take splits today! 6 Sets of 5 run 2 walk (with auto 1m split taken off)Will be interesting to see if there is more speed there in which case next week's steady runs on the tready and the speedwork will need to see the pace increased!
Will report back later!
Later that day
Phew that was hot!
Right then lets have a look ... 1stly I forgot my water bottle and 2ndly it was hot and boy did I miss my slurp of water when walking!
Anyway here we go:
So that's a total of 3.6m in a total of 53 mins with an average HR of 172.
My HR recovery was not as good as Thursday but it was hotter today and I was doing 5:2 not 3:2. The heat must have been the main issue though as my HR when I got to the office was still 155 after a good 10 mins of cool down slow walking.
