Dry asphalt

Had almost forgotten what cycling is all about – it's supposed to be fun, fresh air, and not just staring at the wall. After riding nothing but the bike trainer for three chilling cold weeks I hit the road with my cyclocross bike on saturday and sunday. Saturday was a little rough, with some 7 meters per second headwind going home, but sunday was just great. Dry asphalt...Sweet.
Last week was a good week, all in all.Good performances in swimming and running sessions. But today, monday, I'm feeling pretty wasted and having a day off training. This week will be easier.

21.2-27.2
mon  3 h run/33km. nice and easy pace. first long run in a while. no problem despite that.
tue 3 h walk in deep snow. great stuff. average heart rate 124, so not very intense, but a little different workout for the hip and thigh muscles.
wed swim 50 m pool (2*400m/6.31/6.30 +300m/5.05+200m/3.10+100m/1.25). the 400 m was a season's best. did the second half using paddles.
thu 3 h bike trainer/245 watt + 1 h run/4.45/km.
fri run interval session indoor track. 5*1000m 4.15-3.30-4.15. I think it was my best running session this winter. some upper body strength training as well.
sat 4 h cyclocross/112 km. tough wind. but warm.put some effort into it for the last hour, into the headwind.
sun 5 h cyclocross/140km + 30 mins run. even warmer.today as well, I put the pedal to the metal for the last hour.

total 21 hours
