All is well.

The week of running has done the calves some good.

Start of the week was a 1hr 10 hilly turbo followed by a 15 minute threshold run and 5 minute cool down.

Had a structual asessment with Russel "magic hands" Jenkins.

WHAT !!! I was weighing just under a stone heavier to my left side. My Si joint on the right side was frozen along with the right glute and psoas. Oh and my right hamstring was weak. So basically im F*****.

By the end of the session and some painfull manipulation and stretching I was back to a 3 lbs difference. Iv got a lot of stretching and strengthening to do.

The rest of the week had been mild to moderate. Swim podium on tuesday was full on.

Nothing like starting the session breathing every 5th stroke. Anyone seen my lungs.

Bike all set up for time trial. Just ordered a new steeper seatpost and tt saddle from Andy at "Performance Cycles.

Great to get out on the road on it on WEDNESDAY.

5 miles covered last night with the RS girls. 1 mile warm up 3 x 1 mile at 30 seconds per mile faster than 1/2 marathon race pace with 2 minute active recovery  and finished with a 1 mile cool down.

Easy 40 minute turbo this am and already looking forward to get in the gym and swim tomorrow.
