Agents. They string you along then drop you. So when I thought I was going to start a new contract last week, I was mistaken. On the upside though I have been out on the bike to clock up over 6 hours. Wed was Sophies sports day. What a great day and Sophie did really well in her races. Sophie is an Irongirl. Well done Sophie, her second places helped the team win. Go Sophie, go Sophie, go Sophie
Thursday I did a ramp test to get a decent figure for my Anaerobic Threshold. That was hard work, I did not expect it to be quite so painful, but it revealed my AT as 154 and my max as 160 on the bike. So now I know if I keep my HR below 154 I can keep going through that 1/2 Ironman and make the finish.
Friday, Martin had come up with a great idea of going to Worthing for a swim. At about 10:30 we inched our way into the water. Colder than we expected, and what looked pretty flat, turned out warmer and rougher. Swimming was tough going, well for me anyway, the lake is easier. (watch out for those sea swims).
Saturday and Sunday were no training days. Daniels party, (7 eleven year old boys in a cinema, when the couple in front start having some 'pash'), well you can imagine how the boys giggled and jumped about. Sunday, after sending all the boys home, they slept over, we then had a BBQ all afternoon.
Roll on next week.
