Yet more CrossFit! To be honest, this is now forming the bulk of my training regime (mainly because I really enjoy it) and even cycling has been taking a back seat. Today has been a really enjoyable day of training. At lunchtime I went to the pool with my swim buddy and did a 10-length warm-up, then a main set of 10 x (1 length sprint, 1 length easy off 2 minutes), 10-length warm down. The sprints and the challenge of counting and keeping an eye on the time kept me suitably stimulated and interested, that was a very good thing. And this evening it was back to the CrossFit gym for today's WOD (Workout of the Day) as follows: 75 Squats 50 Pull-ups (I'm on the blue, ie thinnest, band now) 20 Tricep dips (I can't yet manage the proper Ring Dips) 50 Squats 35 Pull-ups 15 Tricep dips 25 Squats 20 Pull-ups 10 Tricep dips My arms are now sore and tired and will probably ache a lot more tomorrow. I'm hoping it is dry tomorrow as I want to take my Litespeed out for a shakedown run before this weekend's sportive. Yes, that's right, I didn't get out on the bike this weekend. I just had far too much to do 'Chez Turbo Man'. C'est la vie. Anyway, on my new 'Turbo Man's Happiness Scale' I'm doing quite well. I don't want to rate myself too highly just yet in case I get to feel even better. So let's say I'm a 7 out of 10 at the moment. Train smart folks.

Now let me just get this right, you have a sportive on Sunday, that is one of those cycling events isn't it? That'll be the thing you haven't been doing for, erm, how long? LOL!
Enjoy, I think Mr Grok has done more miles than you! But don't worry, he's just told me 'it's just like riding a bike' PMSL
