Looking outside at the bright sunshine a clear skies, and seeing the outdoors not looking like the arctic tundra for the first time I can remember this year, this weekend was not as pleasant as it should have been.
The week started off very well after a good Tuesday and Wednesday's exercise. However on Thursday I did not feel right, and through better judgement decided to take a rest and miss my scheduled sessions. I awoke Friday with a nasty cold, and so Saturday and Sunday was spent sofa bound feeling consecutively worse, spectating the best weather I've seen at a weekend this year! Gutting does not begin to cover it.
Especially gutting as I had my first 10 mile TT booked for Sunday, which I had to miss as well. To improve recovery and moral I did my best to increase the McVities share price by consuming my body weight in biscuits and other horrendous foods, so I suspect I have gained a stone across the weekend as well!
Feeling better as of Monday, so am hoping to get back into training by tomorrow if not Wednesday, albeit a cut down volume to start me off.
However, its not all negative, this week has seen me take part in the least physical activity since September last year (Probably to me detriment). So its my expectation that my body really could have done with the rest, and should have hopefully recovered quite a bit now. My motivation to get back out there has certainly improved as well, so I can't wait to get back on it now!
So this weeks stats are as below. Stop laughing at the back!!
Swim: 500 Metres
Bike: 19.8 Miles
Run: 10.9 Miles
