Week 11: Listen to Yourself

October 20, 2019 Laura Johnston

After completing another decent week of training, I’ve been averaging 7-8 hrs the last four weeks, I am feeling sore but strong. Is this what its meant to feel like when things are finally coming together? My swim times are down, my bike FTP is up and my running, er… still needs work.

Base Build: Week 2/6

August 20, 2019October 18, 2019 Laura Johnston

Week 2: Testing my patience This week has been a struggle. I started off with such good intentions and got to the pool ready to smash it on Monday. Turns out my body had other ideas. My shoulders were pretty sore going into the pool, but I was hoping they would loosen up a bit.… Continue reading Base Build: Week 2/6
