Mapping 30:00 [0] 5.93 km (5:03 / km) +153m 4:29 / km
2.45 mapping Gwaelod. Difficult going now that I've off the edge of the Lidar data. Rained off earlier than I would have liked. Only a few hours needed to finish it - absolutely cracking wee area.

Bike - Road 4:59:39 130.79 km (2:17 / km) +1294m 2:11 / km
ahr:126 max:153
That was hard work! Seeing as everyone else seems to be heading out on their road bikes I thought I'd give it a go as well. Fail at the start when I got 4km up the road only to realise that I was after forgetting my bike instruments - too long a route not to have things with me so had to turn around.
Started really slowly and found the first two hours very easy, then picked up a frustrating head-breeze and shortly after hit the first proper hills. The stretch from 3-4 hours was hard work and I started to feel pretty tired - called in to see my aunt along the way but no one home so no rest!
Last hour was really hard work, but more so because my butt (not used to being in the saddle so long), neck and shoulders were hurting. Legs weren't so bad. Hit 67.0k when I got home!

IW. Fecking wind. Lovely morning though.
4 PM
Bike - Road 30:36 13.09 km (2:20 / km) +57m 2:17 / km
HFW. The problem with nice weather is that there are sorts of undesirable blockages on the cycle trail (kids, walkers, dogs, horses, cyclists, cars...) - don't they know that I have places to be?

Bike - Road 31:33 [2] 13.08 km (2:25 / km) +40m 2:23 / km
IW. Fecking rain, why couldn't you hold off for just 10 more minutes?

HFW. Fecking rain. And wind - it was a head wind this morning and a head wind this evening. Had to push harder than I wanted to get home in time to run.
6 PM
Run - Trail 57:33 9.45 km (6:05 / km) +348m 5:09 / km
MDC run around the Wentwood Woodlark race route, actually a much nicer route than I was expecting with some lovely trails and views. Legs were well tired but felt much better once I stretched the hamstrings a bit. No rain.

Strength exercises 4:00 [1]
Racking it up a notch.
7 AM
Bike - Road 29:29 [2] 13.09 km (2:15 / km) +53m 2:12 / km
IW. Was promised plentiful precipitation by the met office, so even brought a dry set of gear to cycle home in; turned out to be a marvelous moisture missing morning. Bit of DOMS alright, but not too bad, moving well enough and had my best ever run through the traffic bit.
7 PM
Bike - Road 30:05 [2] 11.73 km (2:34 / km) +77m 2:29 / km
HFP2C. Wind and a fair bit slippy but it stayed dry. In no mood for putting any effort in, just taking it easy and enjoying the spin.
