The four weeks of the 2nd build month are behind me. Ah… recovery week…
This weekend, ending this training block was an “Iron weekend”. Doing an Ironman distance in 48hours.
Friday 4k swim+11k run
Saturday 200kride+5krun
Sunday 32k run.
The main reason for this Iron weekend was of course low self-confidence. It worked! As stupid as it sounds, after the 200k doing 180 seems no big deal. Doing the 32k run 14 hours after getting of my bike was definitely not the best injury prevention practice… but also contributed to the confidence build up. And surprisingly, overall feeling great, no injuries (hamsa, hamsa…), and ready for a nice relaxed recovery week before the final-push month toward the training peak.
7 weeks to go!…
This is the called the agonizing week because you can’t stop thinking about the next 3 peak weeks. To get through the week you need to count down to taper, the real rest and not think of the next 3 agonizing weeks of hell, no sleep, no life,…
Just kidding, it’s all BS, all you need to think of is May 31st, the day after.
Have fun resting.
Raanan, you don’t look so bad. Why can’t you put a photo of yourself or the one of Tamir in Aza? Who Brazilian girls all the time?
Just wait for the next post. I promise you, it won’t be just women in the photos.
What girls? you mean the athletes pics i add every once in a while?…
Small reminder from our team’s bylaws “no male pics other than team members are allowed in the team’s blog under any circumstances” .
I wont stand against the request of a women in love…. Tamir pic coming up
