Another week passed and I am feeling stronger every training I finish. I had two awesome runs this week where I aimed on a 5 min/km and I just nailed it :)
My heart rate fell from 170ish to something between 150 and 160 which is quite good. I didn't have a long bike ride this week like one the week before but all in all I can feel how my form improves.
I am experimenting with different things I eat during the trainings just to make sure I won't make mistakes when it counts.
Now that the first month is over it's time to ramp up the volume of work slowly by 10% each week this month. I hope to be able to cross the Ironman swim distance of 3.8 km this month (to infinity and beyond :))
This weeks numbers look like this:
Distance | Time | Pace | |
---|---|---|---|
Swim | 5.5 km | 1:55:00 h | 21 min / km |
Bike | 46.00 km | 2:05:05 h | 2.7 min / km |
Run | 24.76 km | 2:06:38 h | 5.10 min / km |
All in all it looks like this now:
Distance | Time | |
---|---|---|
Swim | 22.75 km | 8:23:00 h |
Bike | 345.39 km | 17:26:36 h |
Run | 73.00 km | 6:21:31 h |
Despite it being a slower week on the bike I am still pretty cool with my results because of the cold and wind which will cause problems now throughout the next 3 or 4 months but I guess I just have to push through :)
Until next week, don't forget to be awesome :)
