Another Week Down

Well have got through another week of training and slowly ticking off the sessions as they occur. Less than 6 weeks now and into the really big weeks.

This week was tougher than the last 6, as it was my first week back and I can tell you combining training with work is really tiring. Every day it felt like I had to drag the body out of bed to get going and by days end I was like the walking dead.

Not the biggest bike week, but still 10 hrs in the saddle. Nearly 4 hrs of running and 3 swim sessions. The Sunday 4 hr ride and 15 km run off it, was the toughest of the week. Luckily it wasn't that hot, but the humidity and strong wind still made it pretty tough.

Still have problems with my stomach and hoping that this is just a phase my body is going through as it is making the longer session that much tougher.

After the testing the previous week I am now on a 'wheat free' diet and having eaten a lot of bread each day previously, this is presenting a challenge. But I am giving it a go and hoping that I will notice a difference to my performance.

Big week ahead with my longest run of the build planned as well as my longest ride. Be interesting to see if Wayne can keep up with me.
