Week 20 Training Log

Week 20 marks the last 3 days training in a 17 day training block.
It should have run, Monday, Tuesday, wednesday but other commitments didn't allow this. I was therefore unable to fulfill my weekly target with a one hour swim, oh well.
Strength training on the bike consists of riding up then down the same three quarters of a mile hill for two hours. A brief warm up to get to hill just a couple of miles from my home, then an easy spin out with the legs as I head to the bottom.
Selecting a high gear I proceed up the hill without lifting off the seat. The gear needs to be hard enough to be a challenge but not so hard that you simply can't do it.
In the space of two hours I did this ten times.

A good run on Monday cosidering I had been out running on Sunday.
Apart from a recovery ride its over 4 days of body recovery before hitting a new 17 day plan next week, with an increase in hours.
