Spikes

Had a good training day yesterday. Went cycling with my brother CJ in the heat of the day. Applied copious amounts of Ironman Sunblock. Did the job, but as usual, only where I applied it. Little bit of burnt skin where my fingers didn't reach (on my back).

Cycle: 1:39
Distance: 40km
Heart rate: 166 maximum

Was good cycling with my brother. Just relaxed and chatted, conversational pace.

Almost immediately after went to meet Jean at Free State University Pool. Still felt tired so didn't swim immediately, but chatted to Jean at the pool.

Swim: 0:20
Distance: 1km
10x100m

Felt very stiff. Fransa was at the pool too and she said the trio of Taiwanese people there were watching me intently and kind've swinging their arms, trying to see how I was swimming.
Funny, 'cos when I spoke to the one girl, on the way to getting into the pool, she was pretty unfriendly. She I offer swimming lessons here too?

Run: 0:20
Distance: 3.5km
I ran very slowly so can't imagine it was very far - from Brandwag to Universitas.
But it was good to get in a fairly solid 2h19 minutes of training in.

Today (did the above yesterday) I am putting on my spikes and running with Jean and Mauritz on the tartan track. Looking forward to that.
