A Hard Easy Week!

Another challenging week. It was meant to be a recovery week with less km's than last week. I have also substituted runs with sessions on the bike in the garage. So Monday was actually 50mins on the turbo trainer and Friday was a Run/Bike session. The best for the week was Thursday nights Club Handicap run (see DMVAC link). The handicap race is a 5.5km, 2 loop run through Dorking/Pixham. Last month, having never done it before I had a really good handicap and came in 2nd. This week my handicap had another minute added on and I came in 5th. 5.5km in 22:55 With a time like that I could not stop extrapolating from it get to a 10km time of 42mins. Thats 4 mins faster than I have actually achieved. If only I could do it for real!

This week ends long run was 15 miles, it should have been easy compared to the 32km last week or next week. But, I don't know if its the Thursday night session or the cycling, it sure did not feel easy, and I was glad to get it over with.
