Rest day

I am quite tired!

Left work early today to meet A & Amy for supper.

Bought our parking for the Outlaw weekend 

I have to keep trusting I’ll make it to the finish line 

Basically if I can do the 180k in 8 hours I’ll be fine 

How ridiculous is that, cycling for 8 hours. 

I need to buy new bike shoes 

5.5hour long run becomes 2.5hours

Well at least a swam agin in the morning and got to use my National Trust membership at Polesdon Lacey.

I need to do more cycling 🤔

Swim, boys & Armistead Maupin

Fabulous day

Should have started the swim earlier as only managed 1900m 48mins before needed to head home for breakfast with mum

Took mum to Drs

Coffee at Debs

Met boys at St Martin in the Fields

Food, talk - 50 years since Tales of the City came out, ice cream, drinks in the Retro Bar

Fabulous 

62 days to go

I’m very focused now on making sure I don’t miss any training 

Didn’t sleep very well - so hot!

So was out by 9am for my 60min run.  Then chilled at the allotment - watered the greenhouse and drank a lot of water 

Coven lunch 12:30pm

Caught the 5pm train to Ashtead 

Hopefully I’ll sleep better tonight

I have ordered the same eye mask that H uses when sleeping to see if that’ll help. Should arrive tomorrow 🤗

63 days - exactly 9 weeks!!

Today has been good 

100 lengths of the Jubilee pool Although the garmin only registered 99

Then 70k bike ride in approx 3:15 - decided I’d just keep cycling, barely stopped at all, quick selfie while I transferred water bottles, didn’t even stop for a pee!

The bike shoes will not work for 180km

I washed my top box and it disintegrated so I need a new top box as well. 

Plus shoulders are sore

Hopefully the bike fit will help. I think I’ll get a little massage fun as well. 

21km/hr. 

It’s got to be at least 23km/hr

So still plenty to do!!

Spent the rest of the day doing very little 🤣

64 days to go

I’ve made flapjack ready for tomorrow’s long ride. Plus the High5 drink is 3 dessert spoons per water bottle plus a squirt of orange squash. 

This 4 day work shift has gone in a blink of an eye. Very busy but always fun. 

65 days to go

1375 swim before work 33mins

Work

Closed up the allotment 

Ran 5.3km in 44.40

Made a pasta bake

Bed juat before midnight
