This weeks training (20th-27th March)

Good week for training. At this stage in the game I am not totalling mileage etc. Just need to consistently train

Started press ups and situps and have maintained 30-50 press-ups and similar situps each day

Saturday - Run up Capt Thomas' track and then onto first few hundred metres of crater walk. Probably no more than 7km running but with about 275metres of ascent.

Sunday - Run up to cave in Barnett Reserve (climbs about by about 150 metres in about 1.5km (then 45metres climb back to house!)). Legs tired after yesterday

Monday - 1 hr kayaking. Good session (described at length in previous post)

Tuesday - zip all

Wednesday - 1hr kayaking. Mostly skill session by myself trying different length paddles so little distance paddled. OK session though

Thursday - 52 mins running. Hard run around Barnett Reserve doing 2 loops up to cave and back down other side (150m ascent in about 1.5kms * 2). Second lap wnet easier than I thought it would as knackered after first and went over on ankle at top of first loop and sore.

Friday - Big day for me at moment. Short bays bike ride (40km ish at ~21.6kmh). Really hard ride as lots of climbs and wind in face a lot of time. Legs tired after yesterdays run. Followed this with about 1:10 kayaking with Glenn on the Avon. Some 70% and 100% efforts along the way
