He's gone 'The Distance'. Now what..?

March 2

Early commute and unexpected dinner with friends cancelled the plans to do anything . Day off then.

March 1

Bike
  • 56m 58s
  • 24.00 kms
  • 25.27 KM/hr

MTB ride. Perfect weather, low/moderate effort.

February 29

Run
  • 1h 39m
  • 15.51 kms
  • 06m 22s /KM

Started in complete darkness, the stars were shining, nice and cool, soon the sun came up and it got hot. At 6am the sweat was pouring. Surprisingly, the run felt easy, relatively speaking. Maybe the slow pace had somrthing to do with it.

February 28

Run
  • 1h 07m 28s
  • 11.41 kms
  • 05m 54s /KM

This was pathetically slow, but felt like a hard effort in this heat. Even in the morning at 6am with no wind, it was a struggle. Or maybe I'm losing it, who knows.

February 27

Swim
  • 33m
  • 1493.00 meters
  • 02m 12s /100 meters

I hope I don't jinx it or offend the gods in any way, but I'm logging it before going to the lake. You can only do so much on your lunch break.

Update: the predicted time was off by 2 sec!!! Am I good or what..? At predicting, of course.

February 26

Bike #1
  • 45m
  • 15.00 kms
  • -----

MTB ride to the running club.

Run
  • 1h 00m
  • 11.00 kms
  • 05m 27s /KM

This was a 1hr run, the distance is approx. Hard effort in the heat. And this was a BRICK too. Legs felt wooden and coming back was hard. Had to walk 2 times.

Bike #2
  • 45m
  • 15.00 kms
  • -----

MTB ride from the running club.

There's nothing like Sunday morning club run and coffee afterwards with some friends. But those bricks are hard in the heat. 10 kms felt like a marathon towards the end. Maybe I started too fast, but when you have others around, that's what usually happens. I just need to HTFU more I guess.

February 25

Bike
  • 2h 00m
  • 40.00 kms
  • -----

MTB ride to the seaway through the dunes.Got drenched to the bone with mud and dirt all over. But it was fun.
