This is going to be a week of quality time with my family as it's the school holiday week. But I was still in the pool at 7am for a good 2,300 m of time working on my fitness. After smoked salmon, scrambled eggs, freshly baked bread toasted and strong coffee I had a wee rest before deciding I wasn't going out in the lashing rain and strong winds to do a 10 mile Time Trial on my bike - the results would have been pointless due to the wind alone. So I went on my turbo trainer for 35 minutes concentrated effort and that was real quality training time. When I finished I followed this with 40 minutes of weights cause that's what my coach wants.
I'll see her this afternoon to go over last weeks results and see if anything needs tweaking. This "control mechanism" is vital in making sure we get the best from my training and that I am on course for Lanzarote which after all is only 214 days away! All this completed and still two of the teenagers are in bed! What a life. :)))
