Two good weeks
The last few weeks have been good training wise. The two endureance runs (40km on 3rd & 20km on 10th) went well, with no noticable drops in speed. The food I used was 500ml of Maurten drink per 10km and Maurten gels & bars. I felt annoy about 20km into the 40km run, but Chrissy got me going again. Yesterday I did 20km at race pace, which given the ascent of 311m the course was pretty well done. Barcelona will be on a a flat 400m track.
I didn't run the first three days or swim of last week due to the travel to Berlin and having to do an interview with PeopleCert. But everything was done. All of the interval sessions (1minute*10, 3minute*10 & 8minute*5) plus the hill session show signs of improvement. The only thing I am worried about is that my weight has plateaued at 80kgs. I will try a fast to getting it going again.
