Training Log Archive: roar

Back to some kind of normality for a week. Plan is pretty non existent though. I'll play it by ear. I brought my cycling shoes from Ireland so there should be some cycling. Travelling to O-ringen on Saturday and day 1 is Sunday.

Since it was sunny, I now have my cycling shoes and I don't have WOC to train for in the immediate future, I broke out the road bike. Decided on a lap of Lunsen to go to some new places. Absolutely fantastic tailwind in the beginning, though it was a little swirly at times.
Turning off the main road the road was a little more rolling so the speed dropped, though I did put some effort in on the little hills. Couple of other cyclists going the other way and passed a pair of roller skiers too. Was a little unsure at one junction and stopped to check the map which cost me on the average speed.
After this was a serious headwind and it wasn't until I got into the shelter of Lunsen forest that I got some speed up again. Decided to push Dag H, so took some speed down the hill to the bridge and then time trialled up the hill. Pretty tough that was.
Good fun and a nice change from running. Some company would be nice for the headwind parts perhaps.
