R2T2 at Sallowvallets

Got stuck again, this time it was my fault as I had a proper o map and still picked a stupid route through some rough open.

Time losses:
#1 3:10 - hadn't got used to map / scale yet and overshot
#2 4:35 - same again running 400m past it until i figured it out
#3 5:00 - got stuck in the brambles and i couldn't see a way though so bailed. should have picked the safe but longer route from the off

Going to try open water swimming tonight so thought i would give the pool a miss this morning and just do 45 mins easy instead
7 PM

Swimming (Open Water) 24:00 [2]

TTC Brick Session ~ 1200m (2 laps of the lake)

First experience of open water swimming

Initially found breathing harder than swimming in the pool as it was colder and i wasn't used to it. Since i have been practising sighting now in the pool for a few months i was able to stay on line pretty well but it was amazing how much i would drift off line when i wasn't concentrating.
The second lap was much less stressful until firstly my right calf cramped up probably because it was cold and i wasn't kicking hard enough and then I got run over by a stupid boy on a canoe. I literally don't know how he didn't see me as I have bright yellow sleeves (which all the other swimmers said were really helpful as they could check where they were). Luckily he didn't connect with his paddle and only managed to capsize himself.

Running tempo 23:44 [3] 5.8 km (4:06 / km) +42m 3:57 / km
ahr:154 max:168 shoes: Mizuno Wave Rider 19

TTC Brick session run, 5 x 1.2km loop round the lake

Started off slow as calf was still crampy which didn't get better but also didn't get worse.

ahr:116 max:145

48.2km +316m avg 28.7km/h

TTC club ride via Upton and Rhydd. Nice fast group of three of so with not much effort we were motoring along
12 PM

Cycling (Road) 1:53:30 [2]
ahr:120 max:155

47.6km +485m avg 25.2km/h

Not satisfied with the day's exercise so far I headed out for an extra loop after the post ride coffee stop. Did my Gretton/Dumbleton Loop. Made sure I did an effort up Overbury hill but unfortunately the descent was spoilt by a pram and a horse so could only reach 60km/h.

Was interesting to see the difference between riding in a group and on my own. When solo my hr was 4 bpm higher but avg speed 3.5km/h slower

NGOC Chairman's Challenge at Mallards Pike - Course 3
