Another week ticked by and now 3 weeks until the middle distance Duathlon in Bedford. The Achilles niggles continue but I think I can get round the runs in the race - just not fast. But overall I can’t get rid of the fatigue I feel. Recovery from anything hard(ish) training takes an age. I’m having more complete days off training than ever before but it doesn’t seem to make a difference. I had a busy day riding yesterday ti coordinate car repairs etc. I ended up riding to Stafford and back plus a lunch time ride through town to drop keys off. I really enjoyed the rides in the sun on my Giant TCR but totally whacked at the end of the day. I do wonder if I still have Covid in my system.
Today is an enforced rest day in the hope if completing a decent big session tomorrow. We’ll see how that goes. Thinking of some TT bike efforts thrown in within a 60 mile tempo ride. Then a run off the bike as efforts of increasing pace as time descends. I’ve done this before and it’s a good strength set. See how I feel and whether the Achilles can handle it.
I also managed some outdoor yoga stretchy stuff whilst waiting for the car MOT - enjoyable but again, felt shoddy 😵💫
