Training Progress 1st – 5th May

by Gwil on May 6th, 2008

A quick first post then to round up what I’ve managed since the beginning of the month.

I did my 2nd 6 mile run of the year on the 1st of May, which wasn’t too bad, having done the previous one about a week before. It’s my normal route, so a big downhill at the start, followed by some more gentle hills through woodland, then a big uphill on the way home.

On Saturday the 3rd I did a short 6 mile ride on the same route, I was feeling lazy and didn’t push to go any further.

Yesterday I lengthened the ride slightly to 8.3 miles but I need to check up on some maps and try to get it to at least 12 miles (preferably slightly more) and as much on rough terrain as possible. I did manage 31.8mph on a bit of downhill which I think is a record for my bike!

Hopefully from now on I’ll be aiming to do only doing 10+ mile rides and possibly extend the running to around 8, I’ll see how it goes!
