10th January 2014

Interesting last few days training.

Had a big fall on ice on Sunday.  Bruised hip, shoulder and elbow.  Cycling in a group when we hit black ice.  Took 7 of us down.  Painful.

Running and swimming gone well this week as well.

Trying to make my mind up whether to do a long ride Sunday or the Tri-Anglia sprint duathlon.  I'll see what the weathers like I think.

3rd January 2014

Happy new Year!

So thats Xmas done and dusted.  My plan was to use the break for some long bike rides and runs.  That didn't happen as I was ill for a fortnight.  Shit Xmas really.  No SBR, no drink.  Just generally lay about feeling sorry for myself.  Still at least I haven't put any weight on.

Ran yesterday.  5 slow miles.  HR was high but that was expected due to lost fitness and illness.

Santa brought me a Garmin Edge 810.  Really wanted this for the navigation.  Should make the long solo rides a bit more interesting this year.

So back to training now.  Plan written for January.  Onwards and upwards!!
