THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK

Day 23 - Ran for 45 mins with Avg HR of 132. Slow paced - tired after yesterday.

Day 24 - Did a tempo run for 40 mins. Main set was 20 mins with a 10 min warm up and 10 min cool down. Overall Hr was 141.

Day 25 (Friday 29th May) - Got up early and went for easy cycle for 1hr 22 mins-Avg HR 115. Meant to cycle into work but was lazy!!

Day 26 - Nothing. Wife and kids went to Sligo. Couldn't get out in the morning as minding kids. They left at about 1pm and I decided to watch the Lions and the FA Cup rather than get out on the bike. Finished the day off with a nice Doner Kebab from the local chipper.

Day 27 - Was heading down to Sligo for a first communion party but got out early with Lochlann Walsh for a quick spin. Got in a 1hr 40 min cycle. Walsh had a PB in TriAthy (and a good time unfortunately) and it was painful listening to him boasting about his performance and about how he was gonna kick my ass in every race we do this summer for the whole cycle. We'll see!!!!! I predict one win out of Mourne, CK and Dublin to break the duck against him in Olympic distance races.

Overall disappointed with week as started off well but couldn't keep it going. Still got in 8hrs 50 mins so have been consistent enough over last 4 weeks. Gotta up the ante in coming weeks.
