End of July Review

I should be at 82 swim miles, 1108 bike miles and 501 run miles. Or if I am pushing on towards the stretch targets 94.3, 1329.6 and 566.1.

I should also have logged at least 30 each of weights, core and stretching sessions and 15 hours of yoga. 

--------------------------------------------------------------

Swimming has been ok in July, I did 10.4 miles against a target of 9. It has felt terrible though. I have dropped from 3 miles / week to 2 since June and I expected to actually keep doing close to 3 and instead I am struggling to get 2 each week. I can still get this back up to my stretch target by the end of the year, and I am still way ahead any of previous year. 

The bike also has been just ok. Into the second half of the year I was meant to do more on the bike, and I have done a little more, but not really as much as I wanted to be doing. At 1,336 miles i am still ahead of my stretch target but only just and that is taking detours on commutes and adding races.Running I continue to post much bigger numbers than I need but only just now. As with swimming I cut the numbers slightly for the second half of the year and I am having more trouble with those smaller targets than i ever had with the larger numbers. 566.4 miles at the end of July keeps me the same 65 miles ahead of my target that I had at the end of June and scrapes over my stretch target.

24 weights and 28 core sessions and only one of each in the whole of July. 

I am at just over 20 hours of yoga. Still high for year-to-date thanks to the binge in January, but getting worse every month.
