Training for Lanza…
I admitted to myself a month or so ago that I am not doing very well at training for Lanza. There’s been a lot of snow, a lot of freezing mornings and work has been busy too. Volume is down a lot. Intensity is down even more.
A lot of it is the mental game though. I had been doing quite well getting on the wattbike but very few of the sessions have been intense. So I was going to have a go at doing a hard session to see how much power I could put out. I didn’t do it. And I didn’t get on the bike at all this week. Not good. Not good at all.
Swimming is also going wrong. I’ve probably done only four short swims so far in February. This is because I am finding it difficult to get out of bed in the mornings!
Running is going ok though. I am not sure yet how I am doing compared with a couple of years ago. I don’t think I am as good but I am probably not a million miles away.
