I had a fantastic few days away with my husband and another couple. We went to London to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory at the theatre as well as having a couple of epic eating and drinking sessions!
Not sure its the ideal way to taper - now I need to do a rapid detox before the Lancaster Half Marathon on Sunday!
Today I was planning on a short 3 mile run just to keep the legs ticking over (and to remind them how to run!) but after a very stressful day traipsing around Manchester University and investigating student accommodation with my daughter I had lost the will to live as well as the will to run! British Rail were to blame for the majority of my stress and trains should carry a health warning that a journey should not be attempted without a shot of alcohol to dull the pain!
Determined to get back into some "proper" cycle training after neglecting my cycling in favour of running and swimming I decided to join #turbovembo! I'm not sure its such a good idea but you can read more about what I am supposed to be doing here!
It looks like tomorrow I will have to dust off my turbo trainer and wash my bike before I install it for the winter in the Conservatory!
It all kicks off for real on Friday!
I will somehow have to fit the additional sessions into my already busy schedule!
So after some thought!

| Will look something like this ... |
Week 1 - 90 min Turbo session + 6 days @ 30 mins.
Week 2 - 90 min Turbo session + 5 days @ 30 mins + 1 x turbo-run brick session (minimum 40 min turbo, then minimum 20 min run)
Week 3 - 90 min Turbo session + 5 days @ 30 mins + 1 x turbo-run brick session (minimum 40 min turbo, then minimum 20 min run)
Week 4 - 120 min Turbo session + 5 days @ 30 mins + 1 x turbo-run brick session (minimum 40 min turbo, then minimum 20 min run)
YIKES! Not sure I am ready for this but if I want to be a proper Triathlete instead of a wannabe I need to start being serious!
