You're in my lane!

Swimming

01:03:31- 2500M

The swim this morning was interesting.

The lanes which are set aside for us in the morning are usually pretty empty but this morning I didn’t get my usual lane because some girl took it.

The girl happened to be the 8^th best triathletes on the planet at the moment and just fresh from her 2^nd place finish at the ITU world series in Madrid and honing her training for the Olympics – Aileen Morrison.  I decided not to make a fuss and let her get on with it!!!

It was mighty impressive seeing her put on a bit of speed practising her starts from the blocks.  God she is fast.

As for my swim – it went pretty well and I knocked out the 2500M uneventfully and felt good throughout.

Brick Session

Cycling
01:03:31 – 17.85 Miles (16.90 MPH / HR Zone 2 / 75% Max / Cadence 83)


A very solid ride and decent average pace maintained the whole way through.

Running
00:24:34 - 3.00 Miles (08.10 per mile / HR Zone 2 / 81% Max)
The run off the bike felt quick - I wasn't really pushing it but I felt speedier than I have for a while.  I met my friend Brian on the hill on the way home and a quick 2 minute chat meant I was really refreshed for a hard push up the last 2 hills home.
A very pleasing run tonight.
