I have a number of events coming up and my training will fit round them while at the same time be designed to get me ready for them. The next event is a 16 mile road race around six public parks on the south side of Glasgow. So today I ran 10 miles and concentrated on the pace. I needed a negative split which means a faster second half so that you finish strong which I did. I also took an isotonic drink and a gel with me to make sure I was able to stay hydrated and had extra energy if required.
Later tonight I have a 40 minute core session and that will be me, finished my first week of Ironman training. So having refueled I am not watching the footie and may have 40 winks to recharge the batteries.
On holiday next week but training will continue with a 7am swim. The holiday is only from work, not training!
