London Field 2km
8.5.11
2km easy swim, various strokes & drills to help loosen up the body from yesterday.
As it was circa 11 on a Sunday the pool was busy so could not have easily done a timed set.
Enjoyed the swim and the body felt better for it.

Bike ride, Braintree - Bethers & run
7.5.11
Train from Liverpool St to Braintree.
Route back via Great Dunmow, High Roothing, Leaden Roothing, Fyfield, Tylers Green, North Weald Bassett, Epping, Chingford & canal back to flat. Went off this course at multiple points, must find a sense of direction. Thought i'd push from the start as I did not want to get the the end and felt like I hadn't, I therefore really felt it in every part of my legs during the last quarter. I should probably have eaten something on the bike before I stopped in Chingford.
Another learning point was that I must be more selective when choosing which Ladies to use.
Mud, cleats & pedals do not make for a quick stop. Spent far too much time than i'd like trying to get the mud off.
Spent circa 5 hours on the bike then did a 70 min run around the canal/ Vicky Park, did not hammer it, just tried to keep a steady pace.
Pretty shattered when got back.
Had a pint of choco milk, showered, slept for an hour & half, ate then went out for a few drinks.
Legs aching already.
Really pleased with the 6 hours of training.

Rode from flat to St P's along canal & cycle highway from Angel to St P.
Train to Harpenden & cycled to Milbrook to watch a bike event her team were competing in.

Bike ride to Epping Forest & back plus run
27/4/11 08.15
Easy/ steady cycle on canal section going out, am getting better at the bike handling side of riding.
Pushed once off canal, took wrong direction within EF so did an extra hill.
Once back on course enjoyed the route which included a few good hills (route to be added).
Pushed the journey back along canal.
Pleased with ride, could have pushed more earlier on.
Once back, did two full laps of Vicky Park, circa 23 mins then 22 mins. On second lap, i did some fartlek work on the straights to break it up. I wanted the hold my time from initial lap so happy with splits (to be added). Pleased with effort on run and how my legs felt good.
