Training Update - 14/06/2007

Has been a good while since my last post. Fear not, I have been training hard!

Cycling has been a primary focus after the Hart Triathlon and have been putting the miles in on both the road bike and MTB. Since I now have a full suspension MTB (Specialized Epic) I've been enjoying the local trials with friends and club mates.

Running has taken a bit of a back seat (it usually does at this time of year) but I did do a very useful track session last week which comprised of 20x400m (one rest, one fast). I averaged around 1minute 24secs for the fast laps, with my fastest lap coming in at 1m18secs. I must admit, I did overdo it at bit and come Wednesday's MTB ride I was really tired after doing a hard swim session on the Tuesday. Once I get my hamstring sorted out, I'll be doing more running, especially track work as I really enjoyed it (plus I got to be competitive!).

My 30th birthday rolled around on the 7th June. Not sure what to think, but I guess I feel the same as I did when I was 29! Had a great time in Bruges to celebrate.

Have got a number of MTB races lined up and Bath Olympic Triathlon in July. Will update you on progress!
