Training Review - Week 33 - August 14 to 20


The whole week I was just commuting and swimming. The only good day was Wednesday when I commuted on the bike and then ran to and from the pool in the evening.

On Friday evening I convinced Mrs M that it was a good idea to rip up the kitchen floor so we could lay the rest of our new laminate. That then turned into a bit of a project for the weekend as we moved white goods, installed a new cupboard, fixed the flooring, laid the laminate, painted a few chips and generally upgraded the kitchen. that was probably not the best idea for our first anniversary weekend, but we did manage to get a chunk of time away on Saturday to go out for nice lunch and dinner and some drinks. And on Sunday we finished off the pieces of our wedding cake and some honeymoon Heineken that we had saved.

Missed both of my evening aquathon race options due to work. Looks like I am going to have to rely on the Scottish Champs Aquathon as my qualifying performance for the 2018 ETU Champs. 

A generally disappointing week again. I should have easily been able to fill out all the numbers and more, and to get all my extra sessions in as well. Instead working late crashed both my race options and I have reached a point where I have lost the balance. While I am working to chase numbers I am not doing any recovery activities and that means that I am struggling to get the numbers and so on round the loop.
