That's a phrase that caused a few problems recently in Parliment but one I should listen to. I visited my coach following my blog yesterday to be reminded it wasn't that long ago I had completed the UK 70.3 Ironman and my body was still recovering. Hense the calm down dear comment!
I am tacking Arran on Saturday on the bike and looking forward to that, assuming it's not snowing - you never know. It should be a reasonable test and when I get back I will keep my focus on the bike. A friend of mine has completed the course on a number of occassions and says the BIG CLIMB (2,000 ft in 6 miles) takes him about 45 minutes and that the hairpin bends are steep - now that's going to be a real test!
It is vital that I don't train too hard when trying to recover as this only sets you back. Once the Bealach Mor is over I am having a month off training before I start my Ironman training for Lanza in May 2012.
