Had to wait until 9pm before the temperature dropped to a reasonable heat! Hamstring still feeling a little tight for the first 1.5-2 miles, but seems to loosen up after that. Not sure if I need to ease off and let it rest or not.

Decided to try the 10x100m off 2:20 as doing off 2:25 last week didn't see any slow down in times so I figured I was getting too much rest. Guessing might need to bring it down a touch further next time!

Thought I was taking it a bit easier as missing Wednesday's run meant I haven't run since Monday and my hamstring was still feeling a little tight. Guess I was wrong.

Brick

With 3 weeks to go til my first Oly, decided it'd be a good idea to try a couple of longer distance bricks. Kept the effort slightly lower on the bike that I otherwise would have done to try and save my legs for the run. The run started off ok, but my shins started to ache quite a bit about 5mins into the run! Thankfully I was only planning on about a mile run, so kept going.
