Been away!

Away from the blog that is. Plenty of daily rolling and icing and the calf muscle is back in action. Noted to self though, must take more care with regular maintenance sessions. Back on the feet with a couple of tester runs with no issues. I did manage to work with no problems on the C2, the turbo and the pool. I have though held off of running to work. Wed 25th was a club night interval session. I pushed hard and the leg held up, tapering that week for race at the weekend. The 19th saw the first round of the Wellingborough series at Irchester Park, 3 x 5k (3 x 3.1 mile laps for our US friends) laps over a forest terrain with a mix of mud, mud, dirt trail, some mud and gravel paths. Did I mention the mud! However I posted 71mins and 31 seconds, well pleased. Wed last week saw a club run night posting a good effort over the fast lap. followed that up with a 40 minute circuit class. Today (26th) I decided on a lay in so missed my swim set, turned up for the cycle though. We started in overcast skies, by 3 miles the cold rain was hammering down, we called it short, completed 12.4 miles.
Things in the main are going well, need to make up my mind where my first sprint (C) race will be and where my Standard (A) race will be.
