This weeks training.

Fantastic the snows gone and my colds gone..well the worst of it anyway and i feel well enough to commence proper training again.
I did have a brief trip out Sunday to do the reliability trial but it was a pointless exercise i was still recovering from my cold silly really i should of known better.
So i took Monday off to make sure that the worst was gone and cracked on Tuesday.
I did the progressive session with a 5 minute race pace effort 2 hours of good effort it was hard but managed it ok surprisingly well considering. just over 40 miles covered.

Wednesday did a 2 hour hilly ride which took in the climbs of the Knowl and sun rising i went out to Ettington to check out the hardriders route which is fairly lumpy it turned out to be a good session climbed the hills ok no where near the top end of the block probably the small ring and the 16 sprocket. Thursday took completely off.

Friday did the progressive session again felt good big gears good power legs felt a bit tight to start with but soon loosened up and the last 5 minutes at race pace were very good managed to climb the hill going towards Banbury on the Overthorpe Road on the 53x15 at race pace hard but felt really good don't know what it is about that climb but i just love it.
