Another week is done and it was a great one!
Swimming is a no-go so I had to use strength training to try to replace it as good as possible.
I completed my long run from the week before and really enjoyed it. It was a 15K run in a little under 1:20 and I felt like I can go for hours.
My speed sessions were great and I kept pushing the last rep or two even harder than prescribed just because I felt so good.
I keep splitting the long bike session up so that more time for family is there and so far it’s working out great. My week ended with another 1 hour and 20 minute run which was even more enjoyable because of the colder weather we now have in Zagreb and I can really fell improving all the way with my endurance.
I keep telling my wife how sad I am that I have to wait for July of next week to race because I already feel so much better than the entire year :)
The next week will be another peak in my training as it’s the 3rd week in my 2nd cycle which will be followed by a rest week with an FTP test and a run threshold test so it’s time to kick it up a little more to have my results next week be as good as possible.
I am also making progress on my nutrition during training but I’ll talk about that next week.
