Training has been going really well - too well to remember to blog.
Did my first outdoor ride of the season last night. I could have done it early (the weather has been that good) but my bike was in the shop for a tune up, so I had to wait. The ride felt strong, my heart rate was higher than I wanted it to be but I put that down to the first ride in traffic in over six months and a head wind.
It felt so nice not to be on the trainer!
The Winnipeg Police Service Half Marathon is just over a week away and the coach has said "no limits – good pacing early and just keep getting stronger throughout the run", so I will see what all of this heart rate training has done for me. I am starting to get twitchy to race, so I am looking forward to this one.
It is kind of strange, today was a rest day and I am really tired (and it is only 8:25 pm) - maybe it is because the office was a sauna today. I don't think that they have switched from heat to AC yet - then again, this is Winnipeg in April and no one expected 25°C.
Ride and a run tomorrow, whee! I am enjoying the ride ;)

Yes, yes. I'm thinking this half is going to be quite rewarding for you. Take it easy to start... warm right up then slowly turn it on. Can't wait! Break a leg girl!
You are doing so well! Good for you!
