Training Review - Week 41 - October 8 to 14

I have been struggling with the cold all week. I tried to do a standard set of commutes on the mountain bike, they were slow but not terrible. My one attempt at a run commute on Thursday though ended with me having to stop for a packet of lockets and then taking the bus from there. 

Not ideal prep for Ibiza but I am going to have to live with it. 400 miles of running and 100 miles of swimming were much more than I could reasonably have expected when I was lying in Kirkhill forest waiting for the ambulance last December.
