Another week is over and this one was a banger!
Week 3
I had to skip swimming again because of kids being sick or not in the kindergarten but this should be the last week this happens (knock on wood).
I had some amazing speed sessions while the 2 hours and 30 minute bike ride flew by in an instant. I really enjoyed run speed session on Sunday because I started out a little conservative with the main set being 7 x (1 min Z4-5 + 2 min recovery Z1-2). The Z4-5 should have been running between 3:58 to 4:48 min/km. As I said, I started very conservative (something like a 4:40 min/km) but bumped it up after to sets to 4:10 and finished the last one in a 3:55!!!
I had to, unfortunately, cut my long run short but it shouldn’t really cause any problems down the line.
I really feel great and can’t wait for week 4 to rest a little and push the next three weeks after that. I can feel I am getting tired now and will use the this week to recover as much as possible and finally get back into the pool. Let’s have a quick look at the numbers.
My weight is dropping nicely and I am down nearly 3 kilos in 3 weeks!

I had my first week of riding more than 100 kilometers which is also nice!
I am now going to take this week a little easier and recharge for another push after that.
Until then,
