Training Diary November 2006

Friday, 1st December 2006

November was my second training block of my base training. Generally it has gone well.  I have been doing 16-19 hours a week broken down into 14 sessions a week.  This has consisted of 4 swims, 4 bikes, 3 swims and 3 strength and conditioning sessions.

Focus has been on getting my general fitness back without getting injured or ill. I had a few days at home and spent a day training at Swansea HPC with athletes like Helen Tucker which was good fun and really motivating.

I have not raced this month however December will see me race in a 10km road race on boxing day near my hometown. Probably a good thing because otherwise I could emerge from Christmas weighing an extra two stone!!
