Tuesday I had a bit of a sore throat so I started with an easy run in the morning and then changed the chain on my road bike before going out for afternoon tea with granny.
Wednesday I started with easy weights and stretching sessions while I waited for the roads to dry a bit. That didn't really work as I just waited myself into a rain shower instead as I took an easy lap around Dyce to check that I had fitted my new chain and aligned the gears properly. In the evening I went out to Knockburn and did 5 laps.
I also decided that I am not going to race at the weekend. I can't really justify the travel expense, especially with local races the following 3 weeks.
Thursday was a trip to the Kemnay triangle with the Kintore group. Has been a few weeks since this session has been on and the pace was as savage as ever.
Friday the weather was pretty shocking so I decided not to go out for a run in the morning. I did a longer yoga session in the morning and then caught up with some studying. I dragged myself out for a run after lunch but was really struggling so I cut it short. This means I will have to run again over the weekend to get my miles for the week.
Saturday I started with core and stretching sessions to try and round out my week. Then I went out to get the rest of my run miles for the week.
Sunday I slept in. I did my core session to finish off my week, then spent the rest of the day thinking up excuses not to go out on the bike. I did at least manage a studying binge to catch up on most of my courses.
While I got through the plan this week it has been pretty terrible. I have scraped over some pretty low targets. With a series of races coming the next few weeks this was probably not the week I needed.
