    Tuesday pm
    Sea swim. It was a little choppy with a strong current so tough enough. 1000m

    5k run afterwards to dry out a bit. I kept it all easy, I'm definitely still tired. Got home and flaked out completely.

    I was gonna run today but maybe I need to rest.... hmmm.

    I ran. You just can't waste these lovely warm days... 14k in 80 mins. It all felt easy and relaxed even on the hills so I think I did the right thing. :)

    Thursday am, home alone with kids, so turbo it was.
    A sweaty reminder of what drills feel like. I only did 45 minutes, but woo hoo, my leg didnt hurt. Mr Magic hands has done some magic alright. (It ached a bit on raceday, but seems to have continued to heal since).

    Fingers xd we will have no thunder/lightning/flash floods later so I get out on the soon-to-be-defunct roadie.

    Friday pm
    Easy run. Not intentionally easy, but my leg/knee is playing up again. Same area, different muscle tho. So I had to run relaxed to avoid it pulling. 11k in an hour. Twas sticky hot, but I ran the same route many times in rain, frost, and wind. Hot is definitely better :)

    Yesterday was exhausting. I prefer racing to refereeing. But it was good craic and interesting. Mad how many people manage to put their helmet on backwards. Didn't eat all day except for a mars bar someone lost off their bike (thanks, whoever you were) and that kinda wrecked any plans for decent training today.

    Turbo this morning, for just over an hour. Then a swim in the pool this afternoon with kids in tow. Managed 1700m of pretty decent effort before joining them to play shark and practice handstands. :)
