Missed Training?

Sorry to have missed you both Nick & John at the W/E.
I'll do the diary and try to get you guys down for a day to get some team sweat - ?pre ride the Corsham circiut.
Slowly beginning to feel fitter - no swimming recently but ran or cycled every day over W/E and even rode to work and back today (16 miles)!
Every time its wet and windy I think of the gym boys and hear the Rocky theme.
Cycled and transitioned to a 1.5mile run at the W/E. John/Nick - try to do this in anger to get used to how your legs react (Badly). Get used to fatigue running which is a bit like the Douglas Bader stomp before your Gastoc calf muscles give in and agree to play. Swimming to cycle/run not such a shock to the system but its worth practising. We'll do it here if you come down.
Sking next week but trainers are being thrown in for some short apres-ski runs - bootiful in the mountains and Tignes has a lake with a pisted track.
Bon Triathlon

Thanks Rob. My virtual tris in the gym to date have been running then cycling then swimming. Entirely arse about face compared to the real thing. I will move to the correct order - and maybe the true sprint distances - in future to start to get a grip of these transitions.

All of a sudden my training seems rather inadequate !
