This week’s targets
- one intensity day, race on Sunday
- one three hour endurance rides
- one or two short endurance rides.
- two weight training sessions.
- one yoga class.
Monday
Rest day
Tuesday
Did not feel great, so another rest day
Wednesday
Not a good morning, missed my yoga class. Instead took the rigid MTB out for an hour at endurance HR. Then later the day ran 2km on the beach with the dogs.
Thursday
Managed to ride with the Mundijong Wheelers, in theory it is a 3 hour endurance ride. Except when running late and took the shortest route, battling traffic. That was 20 minutes at tempo and then riding up Wright Road in a group was 10 minutes at threshold. Still a good workout, mainly at endurance.
Friday
Woke up with pain in the hip. So what was going to be a double gym day is now a rest day, hoping to recover for Sunday.
Saturday
Was supposed to be an easy day, but not motivated to ride.
Sunday
Race day, lasted 4 laps before the riders I were following divebombed a E grader off the back of thier bunch. I waited to pass the rider and their chaperone, but by then the damage was done and I could not get back on the bunch into the headwind. It was only then I realised there was only one rider behind me instead of six.
Did manage a short 20 minute beach run with the dogs.
Targets and totals
Got nowhere near my targets, no weight training, no yoga and only one short endurance ride.
