A good week so far includes Saturday 3600m open water swim, Sunday 14 mile run, Monday about 10 mile of mountain biking on technical tracks in the afternoon followed by a 4 mile run in the evening before a 2700 open water swim. On Tuesday I did a 35 mile hilly bike taking on the mighty Staxton climb followed by a 3 mile run and in the evening a 1200m swim at the pool. This morning was the monster session, 0700 hrs was the start of the 3600m open water swim, followed by a 50 mile bike on a fairly flat course but quite windy, and at the end of the bike it was trainers on for an 8 mile run. Thursday and Friday will be quite short and steady stuff in preparation for the 100 mile sportive ride on Saturday morning and I plan to take the trainers and do a quick (probably not that quick) 10 k run at the end of it. I hope the weather is favourable for it. That's all for now I will post how the Saturday ride goes at the weekend.

Flippin' heck Daz, I'm tired just reading that. Great training. Enjoy your sportive. I really enjoyed the Squires & Spires; if you get into a fast group the miles really do whizz by and add a whole new dimension to your cycling. You need to keep your wits about you, though, just ask Sags!
Had plenty of twits about me dude 8-)
Good training indeed! Was the open water session structured with the club?
