My last update was back the wintery wonderland of January (although Feb turned out to be just the same). The intention since then has pretty solely been to build the miles - my usual scarily late build faze only really commenced around the middle of January, so I've given myself the feeling of playing catch up.
The last 3 weeks have given me cause to relax a little into my training. February was a large "anti-Milk" conspiracy with a variety of illnesses and ailments thrown my way, but everything is settling now and recent training has been good. The swimming and running have been consistent, and I'm now starting to bring the biking online.
Got my fixed wheel baby out at the weekend for it's first jaunt in a few months!
It was the usual white knuckle affair with a couple of out of the seat moments when I forgot I was fixed, but other than that a nice ride in the warming weather. More to come.
Very much looking forward to the Girona training week at the start of April with the HPU team. I'm never someone who does huge miles on the bike, but the last couple of Saturdays have been very good and given me some lovely niggle free cycling. Looking forward to getting away from the stresses and strains for a week and get some good mileage under the belt.
Hoping to slip a 10k in before I go. There's a Good Friday 10k I've done for the last couple of years and I always like to repeat previous year's early season races to get a good gauge of where things are at. Training times are one thing, but it's always a reassurance to have some good race times under the belt.
