Week 14, Day 7

Feel quite stiff and tired today. Have already trained almost 14 hours for the week.

Swim 3.5km
Time:1:04
1st km: 14:47 (new record for this year)
2nd km: 2x500m: 1st 7:18, 2nd 7:08 (combined 14:26)
3rd km: 4x250m: 1st 3:34, 2nd 3:31, 3rd 3:29, 4th 3:27 (combined 14:01)

3km Total Time: 47:27
250m fly/crawl
Warm down

Weight: 78.9kg. This was a shocker, especially after the energy sap in the cycle race, but I guess I should not be suprised after the pigging out at the braai on Saturday night. In any event, it provides incentive to go on a fruit and vegetable diet as from this week.
Hay fever is still pretty bad. Just feel snotty but energy levels are fine. I wonder if it is from swimming so much?

This was a brilliant swim, very good times, all decending, every single time faster than the previous.
Total Training this week: 15 hours exactly (3 hours more than previous high this year).
Need to build on this towards 20 hours this week.

Will go for a vitamin B shot on Monday, and hope my body can hold together after what is comingn its way over the next few days.
