Current picked up on the back half. SWOLF holding steady — happy with that.
Swim 100 km in open water.
Two years of Sunday reef loops to get here. 100 km of open water, one 3.8K at a time.
Legs felt springy the whole way. Held marathon pace to 24K then let it roll. New half PR on the way through.
The national stadium has a schools meet on Tuesday, so we're shifting the session 24 hours. Same time, same place: Galolhu track, 20:00. Session is 12×400m at 5K pace off 90 seconds — bring a bottle, it's still 30°C at eight o'clock.
Threshold work on the lower slopes. 2 climbs, both PRs. Girona delivering as always.
Above the fog line at 700 m. You climb for an hour in grey soup and then the whole valley just… disappears underneath you. Four shots, no filter, none of them do it justice.
105kg × 3. Been chasing that for 4 months.
"Parkrun course number 88 done, so obviously the next logical step is running a marathon on my own with nobody watching. Anyone else in? I'll take company over sanity."
Fog sat in the valley the whole climb. Legs cooked on the descent.
Full Rocacorba descent, bar-cam, no cuts. Watch the line through the third hairpin — that's where everyone loses two seconds and doesn't know it.
45 min vinyasa. HRV up 8 points after.
Six out, six back, nobody dropped. Two laps of the ring road to warm up then straight out to the airport causeway for the through-and-off. Rasheed did most of the work on the front, as usual.
Zone 1, nothing more. Legs opening up after Sunday.
Tom's 88th different parkrun course and his fastest since March. Went out at 3:35/km, which he described afterwards as "a decision".
Coaching demo ride. 6×5 at 105% FTP, 3min float. Textbook execution from the group.
Pick-up is at the Youth Centre, Thursday 6 Aug, 14:00–20:00. Bring photo ID. Gun goes at 04:30 — that is not a typo, and after last year's 34°C finish nobody is arguing.
Course number 88! Went out too hard, held on for a course PB.
Skinned up at 5am for the sunrise descent. Powder was untouched.
Threshold set. Held 1:32 average, last one 1:28.
400s at 5K pace off 90s. Legs turning over nicely.
