Another good weekend

Great weekend, but it didn't start so well - I was at work till well after 8! Still, made it to York in time to crash out in bed. Saturday was ace - Sarah was her usual awesome self at her horseriding competition and took away some nice silverware, as well as a rosette. Some seriously high jumping involved.

Good run on Sunday morning - a relaxed 45:00 endurance jobby on 4:10/km - didn't really push it hard, or feel particularly battered by the end - just how long weekend runs should be. I can hammer myself into the ground some other time! 1500m swim in the evening was tough, as I was tired, but yielded a good 14 x 50m session of pull buoy drills on a 39 second average, followed by a good 7;15 for 500m.

The Sunday morning cycle was a beaut - 40km in 1:14:52 on a heavy training bike is good anyway, but it was the style in which I did it that pleased me - steady cadence, steady effort, never really pushing ultra hard - endurance is coming on nicely!

Most miserable part of the weekend - the drive home to Leicester. There's a surprise.
