This week in workouts

Monday saw Tour de France come to London, so took a day off and had a great time watching them come through Great Chesterford and then again through embankment. The difference in speed between the two was phenomenal! Managed to snap a pic of Froome before he crashed out the following day.

Then followed a busy week of workouts!

Tuesday hit the work gym, Wednesday ran the JP Morgan corporate challenge (5.6km in 26min). We all ran in nice orange vests so I could pace myself against other company runners!

Thursday went to the gym again, and Friday evening saw my only crossfit workout of this week. Strength set of 5x3 squats at 82.5kg and then a pretty heavy and hard workout of front squats, push press and power cleans at 45kg. Just managed to finish within the time cap of 10min.

My cleans and overhead strength really need some work. 

For the weekend I started to increase the triathlon training with a 1km open water swim followed by 6km run with Dan & Ruth, followed by an active recovery sunday with 14km walk along regents canal. 

Post swim and run!

Nice day for a walk!
