Windy, windy day

I cannot remember the last time I had a long lie on a Sunday morning but today I awoke at 8.30am and was served tea and the papers in bed - you can't get better than that!  After a breakfast of porridge and chocolate I got ready for my bike ride but the wind was really starting to pick up.  So much so I had to change my outfit to ensure I stayed warm.
The two hour bike ride was great and included 2 x 20 minutes of efforts.  It was great practise for Lanza as I was buffeted around by the wind. I had a short run off the bike and was happy with the transition and how quickly my legs adapted.
I then went on to watch my son win in the semi-final of his football match so we'll have a big final to content with in the coming weeks.  I now have two days off training before my taper starts and to celebrate I came off the wagon for an evening - shocking!  Looking forward to 2 days of eating, resting, stretching and sleeping - oh and working of course!
