6 AM

Running 34:20 [2] 4.0 mi (8:35 / mi)
slept:6.2 shoes: Asics GT1000

Took it v easy due to after effects of food poisoning and tight hamstrings... Nice run up to Anglican and then Catholic cathedrals and back to the city. Cold.

Woke at 6.30 feeling rough wth a burbling tum. Within 30 mins was ensconced in the bathroom being violently sick and the other... Bizarrely by 8.30 I gingerly had some poached eggs and black tea. Stuck to sweet stuff and had a nap at 5.30pm. Had lighter dinner but still felt battered by end of day. Others affected too so it was definitely the Liverpool FC lamb that did it to us. Thanks, Anfield!

Running 29:45 [3] 4.0 mi (7:26 / mi)
slept:6.5 (injured) shoes: Asics GT1000

In spite of (and possibly because of) long journey to Liverpool, I got out for a windy shuffle along the Mersey and back. Hammy tight.

Swimming 20:00 [4]

Gym triathlon.... In the pool first pushing pace on freestyle lengths.

Cycling tempo 21:00 [4] 6.5 mi (3:14 / mi)

Tough back on bike! Got up to L13 but found it tough... Something to work on.

Fitness training tempo 21:00 [4]

Finished with the ET instead of running... Dead legged by this stage, but a darn good workout. Level 18 - around 55rpm.

5 PM

Running 25:30 [2] 3.0 mi (8:30 / mi)
shoes: Asics GT1000

Easy jog over to Asda and back... Hammy tight but not sore. Will keep an eye on it so to speak. Fingers crossed. Best bit of run was popping into Halfords to check out a bike... Loved the 13 fondly showed by Aidan, store manager. Feel a purchase and new direction coming on. Things happen for a reason...

Tough! On Level 18 maintaining 60-70 rpm... A real heart and lungs job.

Note
(injured) (rest day)

Hardly a resty - long (12hr) day at another school. Should have done something when got home but was simply battered.
