Summer's arrived!

It may seem premature to say that summer has arrived but today was almost as good as any day we had last year!  What a shame I'm not out running or on my bike as it would be beautiful out there.  But today was an early morning swim including 20 x 100m timed laps with 10 sec rest in between.  3 Months ago this would have seemed impossible and the times I recorded were the best ever.
This is a bit of a recurring theme at the moment i.e. achieving results beyond my wildest dreams, results I would never of thought possible and it's down to the detail and planning in my training schedule which as you know is designed and monitored by my coach.  In other words it doesn't happen by chance.
I am also feeling full of energy for these sessions but that it because I am on a recovery week so I am only putting in 50% of the time which means I have more energy to give.  After this week I have another two extremely hard training weeks and then it will reduce as my body starts to get ready for the onslaught of Ironman Lanzarote.  Enjoy the great weather and take time to smell the flowers while you're at it!
