35 Weeks to go!

I thought we should start with a little reality check this week.

Like I said in my last post I am happy in general with how things are going. I have however let a few crucial components slip over the past few months.

1. Nutrition
2. Stretching
3. Sleep

Without getting these things right my progress is guaranteed to be slowed. So the focus for this week will be to improve in those three areas as well as get my riding a bit more consistent.

The New Year is approaching and I have set some interim goals to reach to start the New Year.

The basic week I am trying to start the New Year with is as follows.

Sun - 90 min Long Run, 60 min Swim
Mon - 150 min Long Ride, 30 min Core
Tues - 60 min Swim, 60 min Weights
Wed - 60 min Ride, 30 min Run
Thurs - 2km Continuous Swim, 30 min Core
Fri - 45 min Easy Run, 60 min Weights
Sat - 90 min Ride

Right now I am on track with the exception of my riding. This is a little strange for me but right now of the three sports the swimming and running are my limiters. I think if in the next two weeks I can get my long ride back up to where I planned I will be right on track.
