my readerships' (briefly) in double figures!

thanks to a mention from coach cook my readership jumped to the dizzy heights of over 10...i may have done a little dance to celebrate.

training absolutely toasted me last night, we swam hard in the morning and then I had a steady x-train (due to a very annoying post vancouver calf injury, which is still bothering me...ahhh!!!) before we hit the turbo - 8 x 3min @ race pace [2min rec]. unfortunately me an olly were the naughty boys in the corner and got a ticking off for having a chat on the 2nd rep...cue us nailing ourselves into the ground for the next 6 reps in a desperate bid to gain redemption. my legs were in tiny little pieces afterwards and to make matters worse they remained restless and kept me up until the early hours of this morning and I had to miss swimming (not my finest excuse). in hindsight i think it was a case of not drinking enough following the session and i should probably of had an ice bath to shut the muscles down instead of jumping straight into bed...lesson learnt!!! easier day today so hopefully they will be recovered for tomorrow.

sarah's got her race report up...having spoke with my reliable source she appears to have downplayed quite how much time she lost on the run...STOP being so modest!!
